Many of us prefer using the vibrating mode on our cell phones even when we are home, because the beeping or even the ringtones can be plain annoying. With this in mind, the Vibrating Alarm Clock is a unique but interesting product that can be kept under the pillow and it just vibrates and not ring or beep loudly. You would definitely not want to wake up at the sound of a shrill alarm clock. Another possible advantage is that those sleeping near you need not be disturbed by your alarm timings.

The snooze function has the option of alerting you with both audible and vibrate mode when you refuse to get up. The front cover can be slid so that you don’t accidentally press buttons when you are asleep. You can always use it as a digital clock during the day and runs on a rechargeable battery. When Karlsson designed the Vibrating Alarm Clock, they definitely had a great design and aesthetic idea in mind. At $47, the clock is a cool buy that might make your waking up routine a little less unpleasant.
