In case you worry that the bed shaker won't work, it DOES really shake/buzz the whole (twin) bed in short annoying bursts. You can choose vibrate only, vibe & alarm buzzer, buzzer only. The alarm buzzer volume & tone can be adjusted a lot (all are quite annoying & guaranteed to get anyone out of bed, esp if your heavy sleeper is awakened first by the bed shaker). My daughter will not wake up with a regular alarm no matter how loud. Usually I have to go in & harass the poor child, then keep going back to wake her up again...& again. I work; I don't have time for that! This gets her AWAKE. The heart shape & color is very cute, & my 11 year old likes the rainbow color time display. So far, she doesn't hate it yet. ;-) Now I'm looking for one for boys!

I have a really hard time waking up to a conventional alarm clock, regardless of if I get my 8 hours of sleep. I have been late to work and classes due to sleeping through the alarm or turning it off in my sleep. With the sonic boom alarm clock, I don't even need the sound to wake up. The vibration wakes me up right away and the snooze button on the sweetheart version is a little tough to find in the half-asleep stage so I have to be awake to snooze it or turn it off. It is a bit lightweight but for me it serves its purpose. The vibration apparatus just plugs into the alarm clock (leaving the option of using it or not), and it has a pretty decent sized cord (well, maybe 3-4 ft). The beeping option is possible to be a range of different pitches and volumes to fit your needs, including very loud and high pitched. I highly recommend this product for people who have a hard time waking up to conventional alarm clocks.

I am hard of hearing and needed an alarm that would work for me. Not only is this the cutest alarm, it has been a Godsend. The pink color is very cool (my daughter wants one now lol) and the rainbow display is whimsical. The actual vibrating pad is very strong and there is no way you can not wake up, hearing impaired or not! You can choose to have the vibration alone, buzz alone or both together. It also has a high and low dimmer for the display. The cord for the vibrating pad is long enough to reach to the farthest side of the bed on a king sized bed. I love this item and highly recommend it. This is the best price anywhere that I have found including eBay.

I bought this for my sister, who could seemingly sleep through anything. It's very cute, which she loved about it. I wouldn't say that it is louder than a traditional alarm clock, but by changing the pitch higher it can be MUCH more annoying. She puts the bed shaker under her pillow and says that's enough to wake her up. This gets 5 stars for being the only thing that wakes her up in the morning (ok, 4 stars for that and 1 for cuteness).

I have a sleep disorder and this is the first alarm I've ever had that I always wake to! It vibrates (you put the white disc under your mattress and it shakes enough to rattle your teeth just a little) AND has a very loud alarm. You can choose one or both. The alarm has a volume control AND a pitch control, so if you tend to adjust to your alarm over time and stop hearing it you can make it a lower or higher note to fix that. Of course some people can reset an alarm in their sleep - but this one has the snooze button tucked inside the "V" on top of the heart shape and it's harder to just slap it in a daze to put it off. And the silly pink plastic heart with rainbow colored LED makes my bedside table a lot more amusing. Amazon's price was the best by far when I purchased.

First off... I don't recommend putting the bed shaker under your PILLOW...you will wake up with a giant Headache! (Trust me..I know...I kept it under my pillow for a few days until i realized that's why i had a horrible headache for 2 days in a row) I'd say, put it under your mattress, or under your sheet...somewhere else..except your head. I bought this alarm, and it annoys the hell out of me...which is a GOOD THING. I love it. I have a really hard time waking up, and i haven't been late to work since i bought it! The colors are really cool, and so are the flashing lights. It's cute and is way girly-er than my old black alarm clock. All of the tones you can put it on (I think there are 5 different ones) range from annoying......to annoying-er. The bed shaker really does work..and it really does shake. My dog hates this thing....and it wakes him up too! haha. I wish it would be a little louder. I have it on full blast, and i wish it were louder. I would recommend this alarm clock to anyone like me, who has a really hard time waking up in the morning!!

This thing will wake you up even if you won't wake up for a fire drill. The vibrater is great because of the long wire. The rainbow colored numbers will get your your friends wanting it too! It lights up the night. The light is kind of bright, so if you use a night light the alarm clock will probably be used as the night light. But if you're used to a dark room, your room is going to be a bit brighter than usual. But I'm personaly impressed with the alarm clock.

This Sonic Boom Sweetheart alarm clock is great! I usually sleep soundly and have a problem hearing the alarm. I have been searching for years for one that I can depend on to wake me up everyday. This is it! If the very very loud alarm doesn't wake you, the vibrator will...just put it under your mattress pad and it will wake you every time. The brightness of the numbers, the type of sound the alarm makes and the volume of the alarm can all be adjusted. Also, you can choose between alarm only, vibrator only or alarm/vibrator combination...it's up to you. And, of course, there's a snooze button that's easy to access.

This alarm is great, it's the only thing that has ever been able to wake me up in the morning.

I purchased this for my daughter going off to college. She has never been able to wake up to a "normal" alarm clock. She is an extremely heavy sleeper but the shaker and incredibly loud alarm always wake her up. I don't think she was ever late to class. She even had friends ordering them once they heard hers. She took it overseas with her, plugged it in and "fried" it due to the different wattage. I immediately purchased another one when she returned to the US. One of the best "off to college" purchases we made!
