LumieBodyclock Luxe 700 - Wake-up Light with Bluetooth Audio and Low-Blue Sleep Light

I have owned this Lumie since January 2017 and at GBP 150 for a bedside clock you expect the product to last.Alas after 1 Year & 6 Months this clock is now useless, it has a mind of its own buttons are unresponsive and to get the clock to do anything I have to unplug and re plug in. Then after a few button presses its back to being unresponsive again.Absolutely quality product by Lumie NOT - AVOID Buying

The sunset effect worked a treat for getting me to sleep. The colours were nice. A longer sunrise and sunset time would have been appreciated. It wasn't really bright enough in the morning. The reason I sent it back and have gone for the Philips hue lighting instead is that the light turns itself off when it reaches maximal brightness in the morning. I need a light that stays on. Snooze for 5 mins and your back in pitch blackness.

After sending back the first one (dodgy button) I've finally got my Lumie clock.I love it! Bit on the expensive side but I like that I can play my phone through it (Bluetooth & headphone jack) the sounds they have are great, particularly like the rainforest.Haven't quite figured out how to get the light to fade but I will.I'm horrendously bad at waking up in the morning and usually have at least 8 alarms going so was a bit worried that it wouldn't wake me up in the morning with the sunrise setting, so I set another alarm on my phone just in case, didn't need to worry, I woke up refreshed and in a good mood!!(My husband has called it a Miracle!!)I noticed on other reviews that people think the buttons are a pain to press (too hard) and can't press the button without the Lumie sliding about, I found them to be ok I have it stood on a wooden bedside table (surface isn't shiny), maybe putting it on an anti slide mat would help?

I wanted a body clock to improve sleep and to lift my mood during the winter months. I already have an SAD light which I use in the morning and am absolutely happy with it. I assumed the Lumie body clock would support ths by giving me a gentle bright wake up in the morning and lets me slip into sleep at night. And wow, I m glad I bought it. It is a pleasure to wake up at the set time with light. I don t even use the sound so huby and dog wouldn t wake up. No hammering alam sound, no getting a fright when the alarm goes off....just a gentle waking, slowly and really nice. At night I start the sunset with the brightest light(I chose the low blue light setting) and while I m reading a few pages the Lumie sun is slowly setting. I watch the colour turning from orange to red and....off I am. I am very happy with my purchase. The clock is easy to set. The first time I followed the manual and everything was set up in a few minutes. IT IS NOT DIFFICULT. There are so many different options to chose from that there is something for everyone. I don t use BT in the bedroom at all but tried it and it works a treat. I can charge my phone with this Lumie via USB and can listen to my playlist. The display is dimmable and good to see. At night just turn the knob and you have a night light. Just amazingly nice everything about this Lumie. Oh, and it is made from great material, very sturdy and looks great. Highly recommended

I have been wanting a Lumie alarm for years as I have difficulty waking up in the winter when its dark.After trying less expensive versions I can confirm that making the leap to this one shows all other styles to be inferior to the Original. This alarm, its soothing light, its authentic and lovely nature sounds (Blackbird being my fav) wakes me up refreshed and happy (happy! Yes, I wake up happy!!)Read the instructions would be my best advice, its not that complicated once you have read them and experimented.This is not a 'plug in and off you go' alarm! Program it long before you go to bed! Your Lumie needs nurturing to turn it into the bespoke tool that it is for waking you up Joyously!

Couldn't wait to try this and it certainly hasn't disappointed. Great audio, clever power adaptor design, excellent choice of sounds and Bluetooth is easy to connect. Love the low blue setting too. I have woken up feeling refreshed and ready to go each time I've used it and both me and my partner are asleep within minutes with the sunset. All in all possibly the best money I've spent in a while!

PLUS POINTS:+ sunrise / set effect with customisable sounds excellent;+ lamp used is really diffuse and looks like a sun;+ alarm setting a doddle - as a shift worker, I like the ability to set the alarm differently for each day of the week IN ADVANCE;+ clock is dimmable to complete “off” and dims automatically with the sunset feature;+ I like the colour temperature settingMINUS POINTS:- lamp switches off unexpectedly when I’m not ready for it to do this. To prevent this could the design team incorporate a motion detector in the next version?;- manual is sketchy in places - had to find out things myself.Otherwise a fine piece of engineering well worth the money!

Nah. Nice sounds, and the light is ok but the speaker is a total waste of time. Get the Phillips HF3520 for a proper bright light and a much better build quality... and if you really want a bluetooth speaker then buy a separate one for a quarter of the price that actually sounds good.
