I really wanted to love this device and everything it promises. As a catastrophe adjuster who’s often deployed for weeks at a time, my goal in purchasing the Hatch Restore 3 was to create calm, slow-start mornings to set a peaceful and proactive tone for long, high-pressure days. The concept is beautiful—sunrise alarms, soothing soundscapes, meditations, and customizable routines. It felt like the perfect addition to my wellness journey and professional lifestyle. But here’s the frustrating part: the Hatch Restore 3 requires WiFi even just to operate the alarm. Unfortunately, during deployments I’m often staying in hotels—typically Marriott properties—and my device has refused to connect to the hotel WiFi. This completely defeats the purpose of investing in a wellness device meant to support me when I need it most. What’s most disappointing is that a sunrise alarm clock should function regardless of internet connection. I wasn’t expecting all features to work offline, but for the basic alarm and light functionality to be inaccessible without WiFi makes this feel impractical for frequent travelers or anyone without consistent, private internet access. Until there’s an update that includes offline usability, I sadly can’t rely on this device for what I originally intended. I still believe in the Hatch vision and hope to see improvements in future versions. For now, it’s a beautiful idea with a frustrating limitation.

I bought this for my girlfriend who prefers sleeping with brown noise every night. She didn’t want to continue using her phone, leaving it on all night so after hearing/reading multiple reviews I decided to get this product. She loves it so much and is used literally every single time she wants to get some sleep or a Power Nap. The light effects are great and can be surprisingly very very bright but one has the ability to change the colors and lower the brightness to preference. The product is quite pricier compared to other Amazon ones but it really seems to be worth every penny as an investment to one’s sleep. Even I have been benefitting from it.

Completely changed my morning routine and ability to get up in the mornings. The gentle wake up allows me to wake up feeling rested and motivated.
