Hatch Restore 3 Sunrise Alarm Clock, Sound Machine, Smart Light (Cocoa) - White Noise, Screen-Free Sleep Routine

I never knew an alarm clock could make such a difference in my sleep routine, but the Hatch Restore 3 blew me away. The sunrise wake-up light is gentle but effective, and the customizable wind-down routines with calming sounds and meditations help me actually relax before bed. I love that I can control everything with physical buttons—no more staring at my phone before sleep. It looks sleek on my nightstand, sounds great, and works exactly as promised. Totally worth the investment for better sleep.

While the price may seem steep, the impact this clock has had on my morning routine has been worth it! When I got the clock it was super easy to set-up through the app, which is where you control your settings from. I love the design because it is so simple and "aesthetic" as well. As for functionality, I will start by saying I bought this clock because I have horrible morning aggression and wake up extremely irritable.. it is not pleasant for me or anybody else but having this sunrise clock has made me significantly less of a b***h in the mornings. The wake up is slow, and you can choose how long you want the clock to gradually brighten in the morning. I have mine set to start at 6:30am and brighten over time until 7:15am. It also has a handful of free wakeup noises to choose from that also gradually get louder as the light gets brighter. I find that this slow transition from sleep to awakeness has changed how I operate in the mornings, not only in attitude, but also in "grogginess"... not only am I calmer and happier, I also no longer feel completely exhausted upon waking up/being woken up suddenly by the Apple alarm (worst sounds known to man). 10/10 would recommend to anybody battling with morning aggression or difficulty waking up suddenly/sleeping through alarms.TL;DR - This clock works extremely well in my case, to wake me peacefully. I feel more energized when I wake because I am not jolted out of sleep, and I also wake up much happier and significantly less irritable. This clock has given me a better start to my day and is super cute and easy to use. I can't speak for everyone, but for me this clock was worth every penny.

I have to chime in here and say how much I loveee my hatch. I was nervous to buy due to the large price tag but I have to say it’s absolutely worth it. I’ve had it about a month now. Yes you need the membership that’s like $5 a month for some sounds but you don’t have to have it. I will say also worth it - the membership is fun and even has seasonal sounds. The sleep sounds are so soothing, there is a huge variety of lighting options all which are calming for bedtime. The aesthetics of the device are also quite nice. I look forward to using it every night and it does help me wake up gently without having to use my phone.

I had been wanting to purchase one of these for years. However, I sleep with a box fan (on max level) and didn’t think that a Hatch Restore would be helpful for me because I already use a fan for noise/airflow. I decided to go ahead and get the Restore to test out the sunrise alarm more than anything. To my surprise, each feature of the Hatch Restore has been pretty life changing for my nighttime/morning routine. Firstly, the sunrise alarm theory works very well. It gently wakes me up instead of a jarring alarm. I get up for the day feeling way more rested and peaceful than before. I use the free version of the app and set up the 30 minute “wind down” routine with the “sample” sounds that comes with it. Each night, the Restore plays a different ambient sound while the night light slowly dims with the 30 minute timer. Once it fully dims, it switches to my sleep sound I chose, which is nighttime crickets. I have it set to a specific sound level that can be heard over my box fan. The sound quality is amazing. Mixing fan noise and ambient noises is actually a really great move for better sleep. I personally think that the premium membership would be worth it - then you can create your own routines and use any of the sounds in their rather large sound library. Lastly, the UI for this clock is really great. Tap it anywhere to see the time, press the top button to start your nighttime routine, hold it down to turn off your alarm. Simple and easy. Yes, the clock is very expensive. But this is the most extensive and customizable clock I have ever seen. It really has helped my sleep tremendously and I have been recommending it to so many people. Worth the money!!!

Actual rating 4.85I bought this as a birthday gift to myself to work on my sleep habits as well as lift my mood when I get up in the morning. My iPhone alarm became jarring and unreliable (multiple needs for alarms to make sure I get up) so I decided to try hatch. Is the monthly payments expensive yes (I pay annual) but I use it daily and it has impacted my sleep a lot. I noticed I stopped waking up in the middle of the night as much and my sleep latency (oura ring) has gone down. The sound quality is that of a pricy JBL speaker and ranges from very quiet to very loud all by using the button or your phone. The functionality is great when you pair it with the app and has lots of different sounds colors and even some seasonal gems. Denim cowgirl sound is fun but I do love my jazz and thunderstorms when I read.I would rate this 5 stars but the price is a little expensive to still be paying a membership as well as some features in the app need updating such as the wind down mode to encourage you to start your routine rarely goes off even if I set it to daily automatic and refresh the app. Why put it in the routine if it won’t automatically play. Also the app does apparently crash often so if you struggle to wake up with a backup alarm became aware of that. As a normal to lighter sleeper this worked great for me. If it had some jarring loud sounds it would also be 5 stars so it could work for my partner as he is the deepest sleeper on earth bus since it’s not jarring enough it really only works for me. Otherwise with these fixes like more sounds, wind down, and overall pricing I’d rate it 4.85 stars.
