We absolutely love our Hatch Restore 3 Sunrise Alarm Clock! It’s become such an easy and gentle way to start the day. The sunrise wake-up feature makes mornings feel calmer and more natural — no jarring sounds, just a soft light that gradually brightens and helps me wake up feeling more refreshed. I also appreciate how customizable it is. There are so many sound and light options, so you can really tailor it to what works best for you (or your partner). The sleep routines are great, too — the wind-down lights and sounds have helped me relax before bed and actually fall asleep more peacefully. Overall, it’s easy to use, thoughtfully designed, and feels like a little daily upgrade to both bedtime and morning routines. Worth every bit of the hype — we’re so glad we added it to our bedroom!

So I got myself this fancy alarm clock. It's the nicest one I've ever owned. Compared to the rectangular, button-filled, segmented-display of my previous alarm clocks, the Hatch looks positively beautiful. At a glance, it feels more like decoration than appliance. It's also really easy to set up. I typically prefer my devices to be configurable without external apps, but I'm also tired of fiddling with alarm clocks. I find that just configuring the Hatch setup in an app is preferable to the click-click-clicking on my older alarm clocks. App-based configuration also means that the Hatch only has a handful of buttons on the device. The most prominent are two, large buttons on the top that server as the "start" and "stop" functions. They're large enough to accommodate location even in my sleep-addled sleep. That design feels appropriate and well thought through. The sleep features are nice. I like to sleep with my windows open when I can, so the white noise features help when the nights are loud with random noises. I didn't previously do anything to mask background noises when I sleep, but I can see the appeal. The library of sounds helped me find something that wasn't distracting and it certainly dulled the various chirps, squeals, and sirens that happen at night. Okay, so it's pretty and combines white noise and alarm clock features in a better user experience than I'm accustomed. That's nice and deserves an appropriate review. But then it went beyond my expectation. It changed my sleep behavior! I am (was?) one of those people who was most recently using their phone as their alarm clock. I'd set two alarms because I often sleepily slapped the Snooze on the first (or cancelled it outright) and wanted some guarantee that I'd get up on time. In retrospect, this feels like an obvious dysfunction. Since I got my Hatch, I've been using it as my primary alarm clock. I still keep my phone's alarm as a backup, but I don't think I need it anymore. I find that I'm waking up *with* my primary alarm and, sometimes, even just before it. I'm turning off my second alarm before it sounds. I also feel like I'm less startled when waking. It feels gentler. Even though my phone has a slowly crescendoing alarm, I often felt like I was rousing to a klaxon. With the light and the smooth audio, I feel like I'm being coaxed awake by the Hatch. I feel like I'm going to sleep more easily and waking up more readily. While everything about it is top notch, I feel like that's my ultimate assessment of the Hatch Restore 2. It's more than a nice-looking alarm clock. It's changed how I get into and out of bed each day. If it can do that then it's five stars from me.

Set up was very easy! It did take a minute to learn the ins and outs of the app. However, the gentle sleep sounds make falling asleep so easy and fast! I find myself listening to the sounds instead of running through thoughts in my mind. The wake up function is the absolute best! No more sudden loud obnoxious alarm! And I’m usually up before the set time due to the gentle light getting brighter and brighter! I also like being able to control when the time is displayed and the brightness! All and all, it’s a wonderful alarm clock! I highly recommend

Don’t let the subscription deter you, this alarm clock is completely usable without it. The monthly subscription is mainly for more sounds and bedtime stories, plus 2 added steps to your sleep/wake routine which are ‘Unwind’ and ‘Morning Moment’. I’d suggest setting up some routines while on the free version, to get the feel of it first; then get the free trial and immediately cancel it, so you don’t get charged but can try it out for a month. If you realize that you like the subscription version more than the free: the monthly price is $5 totaling to $60 a year, and the yearly subscription is $50. The sunrise feature is super customizable, you can have the dim lamp go very bright within 5 minutes or up to an hour. There’s 28 different sleep sounds, 12 sunrises, and 13 alarm sounds to choose from without a subscription. Hatch claims this alarm is science-backed in lulling you to sleep but also waking you up gradually and peacefully. Listening to sleep sounds definitely helps me stay asleep for most of the night; whereas before, I’d wake up numerous times every single night. Also I can for sure say that after having this clock for a few months, not once have I woken up to a jarringly loud alarm and jumped out of bed after realizing I snoozed all of my phone alarms. The biggest issue is that it relies on a constant WiFi/power connection. If a cell tower nearby goes down or there’s no power, you’re stuck without an alarm clock. (Aug. ‘24) I got the Restore 2 in the Putty color, it’s a lighter tan with a hint of pink. The video I included shows the Brown Noise sleep sound and the light color Evening Sun. There are instructions that come with the clock that tell you where to touch for adjusting the volume and light, how the two Rest/Rise buttons at the top work, and how to set up the clock within the app. It took about 10 minutes for my clock to connect and register/update, so don’t be worried if it takes awhile. Not only is this an aesthetic clock, but it’s also a sound machine, an alarm, and a curated sunrise. The ability to have a different alarm schedule is a huge bonus as well, especially if you have a differing morning routine depending on the day. Honestly, the price could definitely be lower ($170), but I believe it’s just about worth it over other options. !!! Update: I’ve had the Restore 2 for a year now (Oct ‘25) and had some sound issues for awhile, so I contacted support. The sleep sound that I rely on every night (brown noise) was cutting out after a few minutes and Hatch’s customer support was super kind and gracious. I was provided a replacement power cord and after the sound issue remained, eventually a replacement clock. Since they stopped making the Restore 2, I was genuinely surprised that I was given a free replacement/upgrade to the Restore 3! The only downside to the new model I noticed is that the Restore 3 is a bit taller and doesn’t have the easy touch options on the face. The light adjustment is now on the right side edge (between the routine and light buttons), the invisible touch sensors are hard to manage. The light button on the right side also only has one setting of a warm white at about 60 brightness (shown in photo with the water bottle), which I think is a bit too bright. Regardless, the Hatch products and their team is amazing, they really care about their customers!!

Very disappointing. The hardware is good but the app is unusable. There is a lot of potential in this product but they will only realise it when they throw out the current app and rebuild it with ease of use and flexibility in mind. Honestly this industry is begging for a competitor to come in and show us how this can be done well. Unfortunately Hatch is not that (yet? 🤞). I'd love to return my Hatch 3 and wait for that competitor, maybe they never come but this $200 disappointment is not bringing me any joy.

Cumple su propósito como despertador? Si. Para pagar más de 200 USD? No. Un producto tan caro no puede tener un problema con que los números se encimen en ciertas combinaciones. Escribí a Soporte Técnico. Nadie se molestó en responder.

Heeft GEEN Europese stekker!

Misleading pictures. You have to keep the device plugged into the power socket all the time, which is very inconvenient. The app has a lot of non-free features XD, and you have to keep your phone and WI-FI connected all the time. worst purchase in a long time.

Nice clock. Looks good. Has great features for waking up and preparing to sleep. Has good anytime ambience. No complaints on the clock itself. Not a fan of subscription for extra sounds effects etc. although can be used without. The subscription adds to it. For price of the clock I feel the whole app should be included. But it still is worth it to me.
