Does anyone still use the old fashioned alarm clock?  |
| |
| Most people tend to use some form of alarm system to wake then up at a specified time, but how many peole are still using an actual alarm clock? For quite a while I tended to use the music centre which I had preset for a certain radio station, and now I usually set my mobile phone to play a tune at the allotted time. There are so many items that offer this feature nowadays that alarm clocks seem to be outdated, but they are still on sale so someone must still be buying them. | | Wake Up | | | | |

| | The music centre that I used to use is a Technics system from around 10 years ago, so I would have expected most systems to have that facility now. In fact, it will play a CD or tape at a given time as well. Of course I imagine that only the very old mobiles will not have an alarm feature.

| | I used to set my alarm clock on my phone, but it just lulled me to sleep. So i bought an alarm clock that rings like a classroom buzzer. The same happened. I can't wake up when the alarm goes off. Good thing, though, that my work starts at 2pm. It's too hot to sleep at high noon, so I wake up sweating at 11 am. I have never been late. | | | | | | |

| | by the way, the blue alarm clock image is the same as my alarm clock. I set both the phone and clock alarms without much success at getting up when they both go off. | | | |

| | I have no problem getting up, but I do need to be woken in the first place. I put my mobile phone in the next room, but I can still hear it clearly. My blue alarm clock may look like your's, although it is not very loud. | | | |

| | I would not trust myself to simply wake up and will always use an alarm as a safety measure. | | | |

| | I could never risk that. I usually wake up, but prefer to be safe and use the alarm anyway. | | | |

| | The clock radio may not look cool, but your mooing clock sounds great. I often try different types of noises to use as an alarm on my mobile just for the fun of it. | | | |

| | yes we do. It was a gift from my son to us so that we will wake them up early to school. It was made in china and made of stainless steel. The whole neighborhood wakes up when it alarms. Nobody is complaining because most have kids to wake up to school. | | | | | | |

| | Now that is what I call an effective alarm. There is no point in having one that it is difficult to hear. | | | |

| | I still use the alarm clock, in fact its the one my hubby brought the first time he came to the US 7 years ago..:) IT is still working and in excellent condition so we have never thought of buying another one. My hubby uses the alarm more than me. When we have to wake up early to go on trips, he sets the alarm on his cellphone too, 10 minutes later than the alarm clock, so in case we fail to wake up with the alarm, the cellphone is sure to get us out of bed..hehe | | | | | | |

| | 7 years is not really a long time for an alarm clock. there is very little that actually go wrong, so there must be a lot of older models still knocking around. | | | |

| | I rarely use an alarm these days, but when I do have the need to be sure I am awake, I use my cell phone alarm. It really works great and you don't have to worry about the power going off in the night and losing your alarm. There isn't a sound that I detest more than the sound of an electric alarm clock or the beep, beep, beep of the alarm on a clock radio. Now, waking to music is not too bad. It isn't so jarring on the nerves. I really just prefer to awake naturally. | | | | | | |

| | Yes, the real beauty of using a mobile is that it will still operate if you have a power cut. | | | |

| | I used to, but now I use my cellphone. It was a ore annoying sound so there is now way I'm not getting up. But old clock alarms have their charm, and probably I will buy a new one when I move from my parents. | | | | | | |

| | I have to agree with you, there is something nostaligic about the old alarm clock design. | | | |
