The Big, Bad Battle of the Bionic Booger Boy Part One:The Night of the Nasty Nostril Nuggets (Captain Underpants)

I had a Gro Clock for ages, and despite being the market leader is seriously lacking in many areas:- No connectivity to change the wake time mid sleep- Loses time if unplugged and doesn’t reset time automatically- Hs a blue screen on sleep mode when blue colouration is known to disrupt sleep.- Has a very difficult interface to useThis clock does everything right. User interface on your phone is very easy and intuitive. You can change the wake time in the middle of the sleep mode remotely- this is really good because if your child is sleeping longer you can change the wake time without disrupting them and let them sleep longer.The back light can be any colour you like too.I didn’t have any connectivity issues as some other reviewers have noted, but the wireless router is only about 2m away from where I’ve put the clock so maybe that’s why.All in all, brilliant buy. We’ll worth it and already paying dividends!

This is a handy little tool for little ones that wake too early or won’t go to sleep at night. You can set a ‘timer’ that changes the display colour to show when it’s wake time. The timer can be different for each day of the week which is helpful to differentiate between weekdays and weekends. The brightness can be adjusted via the app so it isn’t too bright at night. Once it’s set up, it’s quite straight forward to set up via the app. We’ve found it helpful and little ones tend to stay in their room until the colour changes and then they’re off!Negatives for me are 1 - it wouldn’t connect to my wifi automatically and the instructions to set up manually weren’t straight forward enough for me to follow easily. It took me about 3 goes and then it worked. Was really easy to set up once it connected.2- it only works when connected directly to power. If there is a power cut it will switch off and needs to be re-set up. If your little one is handsy and disconnects the power cord, it will switch off.3 - It needs to be positioned where the cable (usb socket) will reach. It doesn’t have a plug, just USB that you have to find a socket for and position where little ones will still be able to see it, but not grab it. If they grab it and pull the cable out, it will switch off.4- the night or sleep function is not automatic. You cannot set up a sleep time, only a wake time. The sleep setting needs to be manually activated by the button on the back of the device. I would have found it useful to be able to set a sleep time so that children can play or read in bed and they know when it changes they should go to sleep.For me, this is a handy tool and better than nothing but there is room for improvement.

Great little clock. I brought this clock when it was just shy of £30, seems to have gone up in price now. I still believe it was pricey at £29, should be in the price range £15-£20. BUT- It is connected to an app, that you can select your own colours, this is great as I really wanted to stay away from the bright blue cheaper versions offer!! Also this clock has a brightness function which is fantastic, as the room is still dark with a soft glow. The clock makes no noise, so doesnt disturb when it wakes up. The sleep time and wake time can be managed on the app. Works well in the morning to signify wake up time! Thumbs up 👍

Got this for my daughters 2nd birthday and the box got thrown away accidentally or I would have returned it, the cable is so loose so the slightest movement and it turns off which means it disconnects and half the time I have to completely reset it up with the app! We were hoping this would help with daughters bed time but just makes it worse cos it turns off and then she just moans til I can get it to work if I can get it to work! So disappointed

My boy is 3 and he wakes up so early in the morning but since having this he has been so much better.You can control the clock from your phone and customise colours and when the bear is asleep and awake.Very easy to install and you can change the brightness on it.It has a few sleep sounds to choose from aswell and the sound quality is quite good.My son will wake up, see the bear is ‘asleep’ and he will lie back down for a bit longer!!
