The Hatch brand became virtually synonymous with sunrise alarm clocks with the release of its Restore model in 2020, but it upped the ante with the Restore 2. The new version of the alarm clock comes in a choice of three muted colors and is wrapped in linen, which gives the light a soft, diffused quality. The sunrise alarm is entirely customizable, from the 10 accompanying sounds to the length of time it takes to fully come on (which you can set for anything from 5 to 60 minutes) to the brightness of the light itself. The Hatch Restore 2 functions best with the accompanying app, but you can turn the alarm on and off with a sliding side button on the device.

The Hatch Restore 2 has three speakers and a library of 21 white-noise tracks, including rain, wind, crickets and the ocean. These can help muffle any ambient noise as you fall asleep or throughout the night. This feature is customizable, too—you can set white noise to run anywhere from a few minutes up to 24 hours. Last but not least is the nighttime routine function, an integrated timer you can set to signal when it’s time to wind down and switch from one part of your evening relaxation routine, such as reading, to another, like meditation. The steps on the Hatch’s nighttime routine can also be set to correspond to various soothing sounds, different colors and brightness of light.

What our writers and the reviews say: “The gentle illumination of the Hatch Restore 2 has done away with my dark and stressful mornings,” says Forbes Vetted contributor Lindsey Vickers, who tested the Hatch Restore. “I entirely underestimated the difference it would make, but the light has massively improved my morning experience.” A Hatch customer writes, “While my Hatch Restore is amazing for winding down and setting myself up for a good night’s sleep, my favorite thing about it is waking up to its sunrise and starting my morning from a place of calm. I love how relaxed I feel waking up and throughout the day.”
