A proven, low-cost vibrating alarm for hard-of-hearing seniors living alone who cannot rely on sound alone to wake. The under-pillow shaker plus strobe and battery backup make it a dependable wake-up device.

Pros

  • 113 dB alarm plus bed shaker wakes even profoundly deaf or very heavy sleepers
  • Battery backup means a power outage will not cause a missed wake-up
  • Inexpensive and simple with a large easy-to-read display

Cons

  • Strobe and loud alarm can be jarring; takes tuning to a comfortable level
  • Bulkier than a normal bedside clock with a cord to the shaker
  • Basic red LED look, no smart features
