I know a lot of people are going to say this is great for children. And they're right. However...it's also amazing for adults. I love this clock. If, like me, you're a fan of super whimsical and quirky items, this is the clock for you. Like most modern, tech-savvy people, I use my cell phone for an alarm clock, but it's a pain to check the time when it's lying, charging face down and for that this clock comes in handy.

If you don't, have or want to use a cell phone alarm, this clock works great as an alarm clock too. You set it with the manual/analog style, by turning a dial to move the third hand to where you want the alarm to go off. Pull out the dial to turn the other two hands and set the time. It's simple, once you've done it once.

The Vivisky alarm clock is silent, with no irritating 'tick-tock' noise, which I love as I need total silence when I sleep. You can activate the fluorescent night-light to see the clock in darkness by pressing the easy-press button on top.

My favourite feature of this alarm is the sheer amount of cuteness. I love the smiley face that glows when you hit the nightlight. I love that it cycles through recognizable, instrumental tunes when the alarm goes off. It's also LOUD, so if you're prone to sleeping through your alarm, this should wake you up.

You can hit snooze by pressing that same top button. When you finally want to turn the alarm off, just flick the switch at the back from 'on' to 'off' at which point the alarm will chirp: 'Good Morning!' (So cute). Takes two AA batteries.
