The instructions on how to switch from setting alarm 1 (no light) to setting alarm 2 (w/light) are wrong. If you manage to get it set, it will be pretty much by luck鈥擨 don鈥檛 know how I set mine lol: total accident.
Setting alarm 1 is easy as well as all other settings. The second alarm with wake-up light is defaulted to 7:30 am鈥o if that鈥檚 what you鈥檙e looking to set for, you鈥檙e good to go. Otherwise get ready to feel like this lamp is purposely trolling you. As I said, the instructions for alarm 2 are a lie.
I fought with this thing because I adore the lamp itself鈥擨 find it bright, responsive, and aesthetically pleasing. It doesn鈥檛 feel 鈥渆xpensive鈥 but it doesn鈥檛 feel like the piece of 3rd world manufacturing mediocrity it really is. It should be $30, no more. And it should work.
If there was a trustworthy brand that made a design like this I鈥檇 pay extra for it. Sadly, I don鈥檛 see one.
