3. SUNRISE CLOCK
Phillips Wake Up Light $US131
In all honestly, I'm probably going to have to retire the old iPhone alarm clock and snag one of these myself. This top-rated sunrise clock uses a combination of light therapy and sound to wake you up in a gentle and natural way. It allows you to choose between five natural wake-up sounds that gradually increase in volume. It also uses peaceful coloured light that increases within a 30-minute increment to help wake you up like a sunrise.
"Love everything about this," said an Amazon reviewer. "Had a hard time waking up in the mornings because there isn't light shining through my window in the winter. This helped so much."
