Lumie Bodyclock Luxe 700FM - Wake-Up Light with FM Radio, Bluetooth Speakers & Low-Blue Light for Sleep

This is my second Lumie in 2 years. Sadly the first fell off the shelf as there was little grip when pushing the buttons. It did still work but the broken glass was an accident waiting to happen! Now the mornings are so dark for much longer than in the summer months, it's a struggle to wake up without the daylight so I decided to try again with a Lumie and put it on a shelf with backing! I have to say the grip seems much better and the buttons are easier to press. It seemed easier to programme than last time too. Radio sounds good, the light is very bright on its highest setting and I woke well this morning! It isn't cheap but it looks much nicer than some other models on the market and does the job.

Light is bright but not overpowering. I use it as a bedside light so I don’t need my lamp in my room anymore, I love waking up to the radio in the morning, I can adjust the volume so it doesn’t startle me. I struggled with going on my phone first thing and hitting snooze constantly. Personally hitting snooze is harder as I have to stretch to do it so I don’t tend to do that, which has been great for getting up on time. Also not on my phone first thing as now I can put my phone in my drawer out of the way. The light and radio wake me up effectively. I am using the unset setting for my sleep routine. You can select how long you want it on for and adjust where necessary. I struggle to go to bed at a good time. I put the sunset setting on 45 minutes before I want to go to bed (I set an alarm on my phone to remember to do this) and the dimming light gives me a natural signal that it’s time to go to bed since it becomes too dark to do things. I then just chill in bed becoming tired as the light gets darker. The light has a reddish tone when darker, it’s relaxing. You can set the wake up alarm for every day of the week, and you can have different alarms for each day. Honestly, I’m loving this light. Cons are that when the alarm goes off so does the light, which leaves my room dark, but you can beat it to it. You have to get used to the controls but I think I’ve got it now. There’s no remote (as expected) so if it’s further away from you you do have to make more of an effort to change things or turn the alarm off etc. But, it’s all worth it to me for how much it helps me. I wake up so much more refreshed. Thank you!

Good quality, the glass is sturdy and can handle being transported. The sound quality is good and there are a range of great noise options, and it also works well as a radio and bluetooth speaker (decent for music but obviously not specialised for it). Not having the option of DAB is unfortunate but definitely not worth the extra money. I found it very easy to use and haven’t really needed the instructions, but some people may find the menu a little overwhelming. The sunrise and sunset are great, though unsure how much they help wake me up as it’s currently summer so very light in the mornings regardless. I bought it used for ~£110 and found that worth it, but don’t think I’d pay full price. Generally a great product but expensive for what it is.

Buy it and you won't regret it my wife loves it! The light in the morning wakes you up in the most peaceful way. No more aggressive alarms!

Slightly tricky to set up because of the many functions, but it is well worth it! It worked perfectly and I think money well spent.
