Dark, chilly mornings can pose a challenge for early risers in winter. Research shows that waking up in the absence of daylight can impact mental well-being negatively, making it tough to get out of bed before sunrise. Stacey Solomon, known for sharing home decor and tech discoveries, may have a solution to make those early mornings more manageable.
In an Instagram post celebrating Joe Swash’s birthday, Stacey revealed her secret weapon for coping with winter mornings: a daylight lamp. This lamp, featured in her Instagram story, helps her rise at 7 am more comfortably during the darker months.
The spotlight is on the Blonbar Bedside Lamp, currently priced at £26.99 on Amazon, reduced from £42.99. This lamp not only functions as a sunrise alarm but also includes a convenient wireless phone charging pad compatible with most Qi-Certified smartphones.
The Blonbar Bedside Lamp offers three brightness levels (30%, 60%, 100%) and can be adjusted using touch controls. It features a digital clock screen with adjustable brightness levels, allowing users to customize the light and view the time effortlessly.
Acting as an alarm clock, the sunrise lamp simulates daylight, gradually brightening 10 minutes before the set alarm time. With 15 alarm tones and a snooze function, it ensures a gentle wake-up experience resembling natural sunlight in spring and summer.
Beyond waking up, the bedside lamp includes ten sleep sounds like birdsong and ocean waves to facilitate quick and natural sleep. It features a countdown timer for the sleep sounds, automatically turning off after 30, 60, or 90 minutes.
For budget-friendly alternatives, consider the Lumie Sunrise Alarm at Boots for £39.99 (originally £49.99) or the Elements Light Up Alarm Clock at Dunelm for £25.
The Blonbar Bedside Lamp has garnered nearly 900 reviews on Amazon, mostly receiving 4 or 5 stars. Satisfied customers praise its natural wake-up sounds, quality, and stylish design.
While some reviewers mention challenges with wireless charging depending on phone case size, overall feedback is positive. Customers appreciate the lamp’s settings for easy midnight use and seamless return to sleep.
