Hatch Restore 3 Sunrise Alarm Clock & Sound Machine, Smart Light (Greige)

I've tried a lot of alarm clocks and sleep gadgets over the years, and the Hatch is the first one that's genuinely changed my mornings. Waking up to the gradual sunrise instead of a blaring alarm has made a huge difference—I feel much less groggy and way less tempted to hit snooze. The sound quality is surprisingly good, with plenty of options from white noise to rain and nature sounds. I also love how easy it is to customize routines in the app, so I can wind down at night with calming sounds and dim lighting, then wake up naturally with increasing light and gentle audio. The design is sleek and minimal, so it looks great on a nightstand without feeling like another piece of tech. Setup was quick, and it's been reliable every single day. I honestly didn't expect an alarm clock to have this much of an impact on my sleep and morning routine, but it absolutely has. It's one of those products that you don't realize you needed until you start using it. Worth every penny, and I'd recommend it to anyone looking to improve their sleep quality or make mornings a little easier.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Addition to My Nighttime Routine I’ve been using the Hatch Restore 3 for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed. The sunrise alarm makes waking up feel much more natural, and the white noise helps me fall asleep faster without reaching for my phone. I also love how simple and elegant it looks on my nightstand—it blends in perfectly with my bedroom. The setup was quick, and the app is easy to use. It’s definitely more expensive than a regular alarm clock, but the quality and features make it worth the investment. If you’re trying to improve your sleep habits or just want a more relaxing bedtime routine, I highly recommend it!

I absolutely love the Hatch Restore 3! I wasn’t sure it would be worth the investment, but after using it for a few weeks, I can honestly say it’s become part of my nightly routine. The sunset feature helps me wind down naturally, and waking up to a gradual sunrise is so much better than being jolted awake by a loud alarm. The sound quality is excellent, and there are so many relaxing sleep sounds and guided wind-down options to choose from. The app is intuitive, making it easy to customize different bedtime and morning routines. It also looks beautiful on my nightstand—minimalistic and modern without taking up much space. If you’re looking to improve your sleep habits or make waking up feel less stressful, I highly recommend the Hatch Restore 3. It’s one of those products I didn’t realize I needed until I had it!

I’ve been using the Hatch Restore 3 for a few weeks now, and I can honestly say I’m pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoy it. What I expected to be just a simple alarm clock and sound machine has actually become a really calming and consistent part of my nightly routine. The wind-down features help me disconnect at the end of the day, and the gradual sunrise alarm makes waking up feel much more natural and definitely less jarring than my phone alarm. My only real drawback is the subscription model. Given the device is already a significant upfront investment, it would be nice if more features were included without an additional ongoing cost. That said, even with that consideration, I’ve still found it to be a worthwhile addition to my routine and something I look forward to using daily.

I can only describe my hatch experience so far as ethereal. The first wake up with the hatch was amazing, it was like it was slowly lifting me out of my sleep without scarily jolting me awake and leaving me in a bad mood. The sunrise feature is amazing. There’s an alarm sound for everyone, my personal favorite is a mellow beachy song, but if you want you can wake up to a love island inspired sound. The app was super easy to figure out as well. As someone who often wakes up before the sun and has a pretty strict schedule the hatch is amazing. I will say, it works better if you consistently wake up at a certain time as you can set schedules for different days of the week. Not only is the hatch amazing to wake up with, it also helps me fall asleep. The unwind cue is extremely helpful in keeping me on schedule and I love the stories and meditative music that you can listen to before bed. You can also do a lot with the lights, I often use the bedside light feature, and I love the immersive, colorful lights that come with some of the music choices. I could literally wake up to a pink sunrise in my room if I wanted to. Anyways, I didn’t think it was going to be worth it, but it truly is amazing.

I originally bought the Hatch Restore 3 because I wanted a gentler way to wake up, but the biggest difference has actually been how much easier it is to wind down at night. The dimming light and bedtime routine have helped me put my phone away earlier, and waking up to the sunrise alarm feels so much more natural than my old phone alarm. I've been trying to develop a better sleep schedule and habits, and having this alarm clock has definitely helped! It looks great on my nightstand, the sound quality is surprisingly good, and it's become something I use every single day without even thinking about it. It's definitely not the cheapest alarm clock, but if you're trying to build a healthier sleep routine, I'd absolutely recommend it.

I was so on the fence about purchasing this. I don’t think they advertise enough about the bedtime routines and how great they are via app. There’s a 3 part (optional 4th part) nighttime/daytime routine that you customize with the app and each part has a sound, volume and light option. It starts with a cue to wind down set at a daily time which I love. It plays soft music and a soft warm light to remind me it’s time to get ready for bed. You can do a next part which is it adds a meditation/wind down sound after you push the button but I turn this off. The third part is white noise (also optional) and I have mine set on “bedroom fan” on volume 70. I love that it saves the volume and is the same every night and same with the different parts of the routine. I can have my wind down low volume and white noise high or whatever you want. For the alarm clock it does a sunrise that you can program to start slowly turning on up to an hour before your alarm goes up with sound. The alarm volume also starts out soft and slowly gets louder. To switch to parts of your routine, turn your normal alarm on/off, or adjust volume you can all do it with manual buttons on the clock. The speaker quality is also insanely excellent- another justifier of the price point. The white noise loops perfectly. Many bad reviews are secondary to an app subscription fee. I don’t pay for it but it’s 5 bucks a month. You get tons of functionality without it just fine. My favorite white noise sound, alarm, and wind down are all part of what’s included without the subscription. That being said, this is a $170 premium alarm clock. It is a bit comical that those who decided to make the financial decision of a $170 alarm clock cannot afford a $5 a month subscription. Point being it’s a luxury to have the alarm clock and it’s a luxury to have the subscription. Work within your budget. The alarm on your phone is free. Alarm clocks at Walmart are 5 bucks. If someone wanted the subscription for the extra content I honestly think it would be well worth $5 a month. I almost let reviews complaining about the subscription deter me from purchasing this. It has totally changed my sleep. I sleep better, I wind down better, I wake up better. I love it. The app is great and yes— you will have to use the app for intense customization. It’s the tradeoff you get for not having a screen on the clock. It’s so nice to disconnect. I hardly ever ever open the app. I have my routine set up and it just runs. And if you’re trying to decide between this and a Loftie… HATCH ALL THE WAY! I had a Loftie first and returned it.

I’ve wanted a Hatch alarm clock for the past couple of years. I originally assumed it was a gimmick considering I can easily use my phone as an alarm for free, but boy was I wrong. I bit the bullet and finally purchased it so here’s my 100% honest review- Let me tell why I decided to justify buying this first. I live in Florida. It’s incredibly hot, especially in the summer. My partner and I recently put up black out curtains on our bedroom window to keep the sun/heat out. It’s been significantly cooler in our room, however, I NEED sunlight to wake up. The first week of having these new curtains have made me late everyday because my mind and body assumes it’s still night and that I need more rest. My phone alarm clock wasn’t cutting it either. I’m a deep sleeper, so no matter how loud or how obnoxious my alarm was, I couldn’t wake up without mindlessly hitting snooze a hundred times. The best feature about this device is the gradual smart lighting. That is what sold me and the sole reason why I love this thing so much. I am not a morning person. I’m instantly in bad mood if someone else wakes me up including my own alarm I set myself on my phone. Since having this, I’ve been waking up so peacefully and I can honestly say I’ve been in way better moods which says a lot for someone who hates waking up early and loves sleeping. I finally feel like a relatively normal human where I find myself leading a happier and healthier lifestyle. I feel like I can conquer the day because I actually feel motivated to be more productive. And shockingly, I now look forward to waking up every morning. Anytime I acquire a new gadget, I love the set up process and playing with a new app. It was simple and quick and brownie points to the app for being effortlessly easy to navigate. While the quality of the physical device itself is streamlined, it’s very user friendly once you get the hang of it. If your story is similar to mine at all… just get it! It might change your life like it did mine.

We’ve been using the Hatch Restore 3 for a few months now, and I can confidently say it’s made a huge difference in how I wake up each morning. There’s a bit of a learning curve at first, just because there are so many lighting and sound options to explore! It’s really customizable and easy to tailor to your own routines and preferences. Where it’s really been a lifesaver is during the winter months here in Canada. Waking up in the pitch black is brutal, but the gentle sunrise feature has made those mornings so much more bearable. It feels way more natural and less jarring than a regular alarm. Bonus: even our dog loves it! As soon as the wind-down music and soft “northern lights” colours come on at night, he trots over and settles in. Highly recommend this clock for anyone looking to improve their sleep routine—especially if you live in a place with long, dark winters.

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.

Echt een hele fijne wekker, super geavanceerd omtrent licht en geluidopties. Heel mooi design en fijne app. Hele overzichtelijke knoppenfuncties.

Amazing product

Love this clock. It has made my morning wake up so much smoother, no jarring alarm. The ability to customize the length of the sunrise allows me to just look and see if it’s begun to know if I should go back to sleep. It facilitates habits of waking up at the same time. I have no complaints
