ProsDurable, Great Value, Performing as Expected
Love the shape, color, and settings, but for what I thought was going to be a small clock on my night table, it's pretty big.
This is clearly the best alarm clock I've ever had. The face is large enough to see in the middle of the night, aided by a very subtle, dim light. When the alarm is set, a light begins to blink ten minutes early so by the time the bell rings I'm ready to get up. As a bonus, the clock is quite beautiful.
We've had several of these clocks since when Bean first started selling them perhaps 10 years ago. These "original" remakes are still going strong, but the home decor has changed and we wanted a different color. Unfortunately, the manufacturer has replaced the incandescent bulb with what appears to be a fluorescent - and sadly, it's not bright enough to wake me up. I went back to my original Moonbean from the 2000's.
