If you have Philips’ wake up light alarm clock, you know that it’s the real deal. It wakes you up in the most gentle possible way, mimicking a sunrise by fading the light on each morning. You end up having more energy all day long as a result, so $140 is a bargain since it’s worth its weight in gold. But if you don’t already have one, you should know that there’s a similar model out there that’s nearly as good and it costs a small fraction of the price. Definitely check out the hOmeLabs Sunrise Alarm Clock, which is on sale right now on Amazon for just $24.99.
