- Not as good as previous model
- I bought this because a previous model I had worked so well. It used to have a boxy shape and the lid covered all the buttons. I had it for a number of years before it gave out. This new style lasted about a year and then it wouldn't keep time despite changing all the batteries. The vibration wasn't as strong as my previous model and I found that sometimes it didn't go off at all if the pressure from laying on it hit it in the wrong place (where the turn off button is). This is because the cover doesn't protect the buttons sufficiently. I know I didn't just sleep through it because a few times I woke up before the alarm and realized that even though it was set it did not go off so lucky I woke up. I found that in order to make this thing work for me, I had to clip it to my pajama top near my neck (not comfortable) or if I had on a long sleeve top (not a loose sleeve), I could put it in my sleeve so that it would wake me up and not get turned off in error by pressure under the pillow.

- A good wake up vibration!
- We're having a baby in a week and wanted a quiet way to wake my husband up for work, so not to wake the baby, of course! We just tested it under his pillow, and it passed. The vibration might be a little too strong (as I was able to feel it on my side of the bed), but my husband certainly won't sleep through it. The snooze is easy to get to, however, the downside is that it has a cover over the off button, so it's not that easy to get to when you're half asleep. Maybe it just takes getting used to, but a good solution for the baby.

- Shake does not "awake"
- Unlike our previous shake awake that broke, this new one we bought in July 2008 does not vibrate strongly enough to wake us in the morning (many mornings it could not even wake my wife when the clock was attached under her pillow), and we've had to switch the setting to the audible alarm. The vibrations are just too gentle.

- Soft vibrations
- I bought shake awake's first travel alarm years ago, but it finally gave out. This one is definitely not as good as the first one. It's easy to set, but the vibration is very soft and subtle. Twice in the last three weeks, I've slept right through it. There is no way to increase or decrease the vibrations. Yes, it works, but not very well and I'm disappointed.

- Shake a wake
- My wife has very bad hearing. With this great Shake Awake it is attached to her pillow when she sleeps and it Vibrats and rings to wake her. I think everyone even with good hearing needs to have one with them when traveling.
This way you can count on being out of bed and on time to what ever your doing,fun or play
