Why Opt For A Vibrating Pillow Alarm Clock?
Vibrating alarm clocks come in various designs but most have a separate vibrating pad that you can slip under your pillow. A few though are designed so the actual alarm clock itself slips under the pillow.
So why would you go for a vibrating pillow alarm clock? Such clocks are often designed for travellers. If you're a heavy sleeper and don't want to wake everyone in the surrounding bedrooms having a device that you can put directly under your pillow that will vibrate and shake to wake you is ideal. You'll find that you can set a sound alarm to go off at the same time if you have need of an extra boost. As the pillow alarm clock is located directly under your head then you'll hear it but the pillow will muffle out the worst of the noise for anyone within hearing distance.
Other people may choose a vibrating pillow alarm clock as their everyday alarm to avoid waking up their bed partner. If you are hearing impaired or just a heavy sleeper then setting a normal vibrating alarm clock to a noise level that will wake you up will undoubtedly wake up anyone sleeping next to you. Using a pillow alarm clock will tend to localise the affects to just you. There are also no wires from the clock to the vibration clock to get entangled in.
Vibrating pillow alarm clocks are not really meant for those who are very heavy sleepers. A very heavy sleeper needs the maximum stimulation combining noise, strobes lights and strong vibrations.
Those who are hearing impaired and those who are moderately heavy sleepers, but who don't want to be waking everyone else up every time their alarm goes off will find that a vibrating pillow alarm clock may be just what they need.
