I chose most often to set the alarm to the foghorn, its a nice soft realistic sound of boats in the harbor. I don't know why other buyers complain about the quality of the sounds, they must miss their big ole stereo system or something, its just a clock people duh! I love the rainforest sound and the summer night as well as the oceanside waves. The sound system and its many nature sound options are great. The beep on this clock is ok not near as screeching as some other clocks I've tried. I hated waking up to a loud "give-me-a-heart-attack" buzzers on regular alarm clocks and was hunting for a more soothing wake-up call. Despite the flaws, it is one of the better sound machine/alarm clock I came across that was less than $50.īuy The Sharper Image EC-B100 Sound Soother Alarm Clock NowFound this sound soother at QVC for $36.50. Although it is made by Sharper Image, it has a somewhat "cheap" feeling to it. Overall, the Sound Soother is a decent alarm clock that gets the job done, but it could definitely be improved (display too bright, audio quality is lacking, and buttons take away from the overall experience). Also, the control buttons themselves make a very loud and abrasive "click" sound when you push them, which seems odd for a machine designed to relax you. The audio loop on some of the sounds is too short as well, and if you are concentrating on the sound you may be able to detect the pattern, which can be distracting as you are trying to fall asleep. In other words, 1 is too soft for some sounds, but 2 is way too loud.
The volume control is not very good either, as the difference between the first, second, third, etc. This could be a tradeoff for the sleek design, but the sounds are not very natural coming out of the small rear speakers and are a bit tinny as another reviewer has noted. Second, the sound quality could be better. We have to turn the clock away from the bed at night so it's not directly in our face, but the glow is still significant. Although there are three display brightness settings, there is little difference between them and the lowest setting is still bright. If your bedroom has little ambient light at night, this display will emit a glow that some people may find too bright. Unlike a regular, cheap alarm clock where only the time is lit, the entire display of the Sound Soother is backlit. The Sharper Image Sound Soother has a very sleek and modern design, however, there are a few flaws that detract from the overall experience.įirst, the digital display is very bright in a dark bedroom. Features: Dual alarm, auto-off timer and convenient automatic time reset after power failure and daylight savings time.
