Hatch Restore 3 Sunrise Alarm Clock & Sound Machine – Putty

Overview

The Hatch Restore 3 is a bedside sound machine, light and alarm clock in one unit. It plays sleep sounds, works as a bedside light, shows a clock that can be dimmed or hidden so the room stays dark, and its sunrise alarm brightens from red to orange to white before the chosen alarm sound plays. The case is ABS plastic with a fabric front and LED lighting; Hatch lists it at 7.24 × 2.43 × 5.31 in and 1.27 lb.

Most controls are on the device: a large button that turns for volume, starts and steps through an evening routine and snoozes or stops the morning alarm, plus a swap button, a pause button, a slide switch that enables or disables the alarm, and a tap anywhere on the device to show the time. The free Hatch Sleep app (iOS and Android) is needed to set up and register the device and to customise routines, after which it can be used phone-free; a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection is required. The purchase includes 30 days of Hatch+, Hatch’s audio membership with more than 2,500 sounds, meditations, podcasts and sleep music; without a membership the Restore still works with its basic features and core content. This listing is the Putty colour, single unit.
