At first glance this seems like a great gift for the coffee lover in the family. This alarm clock emits a wonderful smell of coffee to entice you to get up rather than hitting the snooze another dozen times. Just like the folgers’ commercials showing people waking up with a huge smile on their face because of the smell of freshly brewed coffee flowing from their kitchen into their bedroom, this alarm takes on the same concept.
Ok, I admit the smell of coffee would help me get out of bed in the morning, but imagine the irriatation and disappointment to be awakened by the smell of coffee only to find out that it’s fake. Now I have to drag my tired ass down to the coffee maker, throw out the old grinds, clean the pot, and then wait for the thing to brew. No thanks. I would much rather get the coffee ready the night before, set the automatic programmer, and then I can be awakened by the smell of coffee that is actually waiting for me to enjoy.
