“Though I really like its design and the care in craftmanship, I was disappointed with the diversity of tunes. I did not get the advertised experience of a gradual and soft waking up. In retrospect, I find it dangerously overpriced (even the original crowdsourcing discount) for its value.”

“This being my first investment on kickstarter, I am very happy with the end product. This clock has a sleek design and is true to advertisement. One of the most compelling features is the soothing tones used to slowly rouse one from their sleep. This was actually research based and is more unique in regards to alarm clocks on the market today. True to form, I would say the tones are the most soothing and are pleasant to hear upon waking. I have no issues with the clock or it’s design and find it easy to use and easy to adjust. The OneClock gives me peace of mind and I strongly recommend this product as your personal alarm clock.”

“I love the fact that this OneClock is so simple and yet so resourceful. It performs it’s one function flawlessly and with such grace in the earliest of hours. The simplicity of the k terrace makes this one of my favorite electronic purchases I have had in almost 10 years.”
“I like the clock a lot. Unfortunately, one volume setting doesn't work for all of the wake-up pieces, which is a pretty big problem. If I set it right for the majority, there are one or two that are in a frequency range where that isn't loud enough and I oversleep. Setting it louder makes the others too loud and defeats the whole purpose.
This is something I can fix on my own with some loudness normalization, if only I had access to the files and could upload them myself, but that capability doesn't exist. I messaged OneClock and they said they'd fix it when new music options came out but that was a long time ago and I haven't seen any new options. Plus I'd have to pay for those, and I want to be able to use the original songs as is and wake up to the alarm.
So.... I like it a lot. And it only wakes me up successfully 70% of the time. So I can't use it. And that's a bummer.”
“No complaints whatsoever about the workmanship on the base model (though the rubber feet being attached by glue means they occasionally come off, which is a minor annoyance). The only serious gripe I have is long-term support for the device. We've been told that new music is coming since the original kickstarter campaign ended, but it hasn't materialized yet. I'd settle for instructions on how to remove specific songs from the base set though. I enjoy waking up to most of them, but one in particular is so obnoxious that it puts me in a bad mood whenever I hear it (the humming women song), and another is just slightly too quiet to be useful for waking me up (the one with the really soft oboes). I've slept through it a couple times for several minutes before it finally successfully roused me. The wait for new music would be more bearable if I could just deal with those two in the meantime.”
