Ordered on the 4th January, finally arrived on the 31st January, despite being told it was delivered 8 days prior. Complete with a charging plug that can't be used in Europe (Ireland). When contacted terrible customer service. Buy this product elsewhere.

2.0 out of 5 stars A few issues that I have.

The media could not be loaded. Let’s start with the price. Go on the U.S. website and the hatch one is $130 (£100)For Brits we have to pay £190 ($241) for the same clockA hatch two in putty for UK customers is £272 ($345)On their US website it costs $199.I mean I understand import tax, shipping and storage, but they cost double. Then on top they still want a $50 annual subscription.. something doesn’t seem right…In terms of the clock (this is the first model, I could not afford the newer one) I like it, it is a good size and fits nicely on my shelf. The sound quality is nothing special but not bad either. The light quality is pretty good. But what lets it down is that for some bizarre reason, the app designers decided not to allow scheduling the evening routine. Yes you can get a reminder in your phone but it’s not the same. I want it to start exactly at a specified time, so it will be wrapping up exactly at the time I want to be falling asleep. Is it really too much to ask, I imagine it would be just as difficult as programming the morning alarm to go off automatically. I shouldn’t have to be rushing to my clock to slap the start button at a given time because the app programmers decided to clock off and go to the pub early instead of writing a small string of code to allow it to begin independently .The audio content is pretty good too.However I have decided to return it because the negatives I mentioned outweigh the positives.Recommendations to the company:Fix your international prices so they are more in line with US pricesAdd the ability or automatically schedule evening routines.

1.0 out of 5 stars Monthly subscription for a clock?!?!

Awful as you have to have a subscription!

Better sleep, naturally!

I am an active male in my mid 20s and I’ve struggled with sleep for a few years primarily due to work stress. My inability to get a good night's rest began in college with the all-night study sessions, social events, and general stress of being a student. This problem has compounded over the years. I've tried various meditation and sleep apps but none have had a lasting effect on my ability to fall and stay asleep. My research led me to Hatch, through which I discovered their newest product offering geared towards adults -- Restore. What stands out to me most about this product is the expansive content library -- guided meditations, white/relaxing noises, bedtime stories, etc -- making it much more than an alarm clock. Restore has enabled me to establish a consistent nightly routine, made better by the inclusive content library that I can control from my phone.Additionally, I'm a very light sleeper which means that external noises from my apartment complex regularly wake me up and disturb my sleep cycle. The white noise content has been really helpful in reducing external noise and keeping me asleep. I’ve used white noise machines/apps before but they would either shut off in the middle of the night or the sound would loop and actually keep me awake. The variety of white noises (and other sounds) this device has is extremely helpful in this regard.  Of all features, the one that has pleasantly surprised me most is the sunrise alarm feature. I’ve never used (and didn't know) what a "sunrise alarm clock" was prior to purchasing this product. Every morning, the light on the Restore syncs with the sunrise and gradually brightens, which is especially great since I like to sleep with blackout curtains. If I wake up unexpectedly in the middle of the night, this light is especially helpful in letting me know if it's almost time to wake up (or if there's no light, that it's the middle of the night and okay to go back to sleep). Instead of waking up to the blaring iPhone alarm sound, I wake up from this gradual "sunrise" light brightening up my room and the peaceful sound of waves/birds chirping/etc. This has made a significant difference in my morning moods.Waking up doesn’t have to be as hard as we make it. Using a product like this has helped me wake up on the right side of the bed every morning. I never realized how toxic and negative it was to wake up to a jolting alarm clock. I feel like most people don’t know what a "sunrise" alarm clock is and I’ve told some friends about it because it seriously changed my mornings. Not only have my nightly and morning routines improved drastically, this product has also enabled me to stay accountable to a nightly routine that has noticeably improved my sleep quality. Restore's technology and design make it a very pleasant essential to any bedroom.Sleep and meditation matter even more especially during current circumstances, and my friends who have purchased this product agree with me that this is 100% worth the investment for personal care/health. If you’re looking to get great sleep naturally and need some help, this product is fantastic. I'm still surprised by the immediate and noticeable impact this product has had on my daily life!

Worth it!!

So worth the money. I use the pink noise setting every night and since using have gotten the best sleep I’ve ever had (almost 2 years since I purchased it). I love the gradual sunrise alarm and the variety of colours and sounds to choose from!

Does not work as advertise due poor connectivity

C.C. · 6 July 2023

Have big problems connecting the Hatch to the internet. It doesn’t work without an internet connection. I tried to get it returned or exchanged but they say that I cannot do it because I am not living in the USA. So I don’t recommend anybody who lives outside of the USA to buy it.

Love it!

I wasn't sure when I purchased this if I would love this for the money. But boy do I ever!!! This has become such a part of my life I didn't realize how much it had impacted my life until I went on vacation.The sunset feature helps me go to sleep so fast (from a person that has trouble falling asleep )and the softness of the wake up feature is truly amazing. It has effected my routine and helped me get a schedule of waking up at the same time.

doesn’t work
