I have been using an iHome product for several years, but got tired of the buttons and LEDs failing on multiple models, so this time around, I was determined to *not* buy another iHome, especially after reading some of the reviews on their newest models that talk about the same issues. (e.g. their TimeBoost iBTW41)After a month, I am pretty happy with the i-box GlowPros:* The snooze button has raised bumps - simple, but very important!* The wireless charger has worked pretty well . . . only once I woke up and the phone wasn't fully charged, so now I'm careful to make sure the phone is centered on the dock.* I like the ability to use/see the phone while it is on the charging dock* No functionality is obstructed when the phone is on the charging dock like some other units* I like the night-light (glow) feature, but wish it would remember my color choice* It has the ability to turn clock LEDs all the way off* The built in sound effects is a nice touch, e.g. white-noise, water, birds, frogsCons:* The buttons can be a bit confusing, probably not enough buttons, as they tried to re-use buttons for multiple purposes, and sometimes not consistent, e.g. use "next" button while updating the time, but use the "Alarm" button while updating the alarm time.* You can't change clock brightness during snooze. I sleep with the clock LEDs off, but when my alarm goes off in the morning, I usually snooze it several times. I am *not* able to turn the clock back on while snoozing (again re-use of the same button)* Similarly, if you are falling asleep to music on a timer, be sure to set your wakeup alarm first, otherwise same button problem* Waking up to sound effects is OK, it starts softly, but gets a bit too loud pretty quickly. I don't think there is a way to set the max volume in this mode. Also the sound loop is pretty short. In the end, waking to the sound of a trickling stream of water is not as relaxing as you might expect. e.g. my reaction waking up to it the first time was, "Yikes, what's that noise?!"* The sound quality not as good as iHome* The radio reception not as good as iHome* You have to manually set the time on this unit* The buttons feel a little cheap, snooze button has a strange double-click feel towards the back* Not too much difference in the clock LED brightness levels (4 levels + all the way off)* LED time is relatively small from across the room (but this is understandable given the space taken up by the vertical phone dock)The list of Cons looks long here, but I am being nit-picky just for your information.Overall, I am glad I purchased this, and still glad I selected it over any iHome model.I plan to update this review if there are ever any reliability issues.Update after 2 months: I find my phone *not* fully charged once or twice a week, even though I am careful to center it (iPhone Xs) on the dock. Maybe offset left or right would be better? I don't know. :-(
