Thanks to our reader Analia G, who can never wake up on time!
Silent Alarm Clock
Do you hate the sound of your alarm clock going off at the most pleasant moment of your rest? You should try this conceptual alarm clock that wakes you up without any sound. It works like this: you wear a wireless rubber ring with an integrated vibration device that generates a tactile alarm. By shaking your hand, the snooze function is engaged. If you still feel like snoozing a little bit, it'll take more movement each successive time, leading you to get up on time for work.

Bacon Alarm Clock
Do you think a nice breakfast is a good reason to wake up early? Then the Wake n' Bacon might be the right one for you. It wakes you up with the tempting aroma of bacon browning in the oven, just like the ones mom makes on Sunday mornings. Just remember to place a frozen strip of bacon inside the night before and the next morning, 10 minutes before the desired waking time, the cooking process will start. Once the alarm goes off, you'll hear the alarm sound and not only you'll wake up but you'll have your breakfast ready!

Flying Alarm Clock
Are you such a sleepyhead that you need something really effective to wake you up? Then, meet the Blowfly alarm clock, a concept that will force you to rise in on time. When this clock hits the appointed time, the siren begins to wail and the plastic propeller goes up, up and away. So, the the only way to stop the annoying alarm is to jump out of the bed, catch flying object, and place it back into the clock! Buy it here ($29.99)
Doesn't a bit of sunshine wake you up more easily? The Light Sleeper is made of a pillow and a duvet that were designed to make our body clock respond to an imitation sunrise, accelerating the wake-up process. This creative alarm will make the bedding gradually begin to glow in a natural rhythm over a 15-20 minute period, so you can wake up kind of 'spontaneously'.
