Pros and cons
Pros
- A bed shaker offers a wake-up option that does not rely on hearing the buzzer.

- Brightness and volume adjustments allow some control over night-time display light and alarm sound.
Cons
- The display and bed shaker do not operate on battery power alone, so they depend on mains power.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing is inconsistent about backup-battery operation: it says the alarm will sound during a power outage, but also says battery-only operation leaves the display off and the vibrator inactive. Confirm which functions remain available during an outage if this matters.

A good fit for
- People who want a bed shaker as an alternative or addition to an audible alarm.
- Households needing two separately set alarms.

Aggregate customer ratings are more positive than negative overall, but a notable one-star share points to a divided response. With a small rating sample and no written feedback supplied, the ratings do not reveal what buyers liked or disliked. Consider the practical limits of mains dependence and the listing's uncertainty about outage behaviour when deciding whether it suits your needs.
Frequently asked questions
Can the clock wake you with vibration only?
The listing describes three modes: buzzer, bed shaker, or both. It does not provide comparative performance measurements.
Does it work during a power outage?
The listing says the alarm will still sound on time during an outage, but also says the vibrator will not function on battery power alone. Check this limitation if shaker operation during an outage is important.
Can the clock run from AAA batteries alone?
Two AAA batteries are specified for memory function. The listing says the display remains off and the vibrator does not function when running on batteries alone.
Does it have a USB port?
Yes. The listing describes a rear USB port for charging a phone, tablet or another device.
