Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have 3 of the older model Philips wake up lights in my house and they are great. One of my children wanted one too so I thought I'd give this newer model a try but, ugh, as I now see others have mentioned there's no volume control. You are forced to a loud annoying deet-deet-deet alarm! I should have read the reviews 1st! BTW, this model does not put out nearly as much light as the older models. I should have tried one of the cheaper non-Philips versions on Amazon (1/2 the price of this one) or gotten one of the older models. Stay away from this light!!!!!!!
