Unbed Block

For the skeptics!

Not lying when I say this thing genuinely changed my life. I never write reviews but I wanted to write one specifically for people like me, who were skeptical that the Unbed block and app was just another gimmick that wouldn't work and would be a waste of money and another piece of plastic junk. I thought the same thing but decided to give it a go when the block was on sale. I was just so tired of snoozing until I was almost late, frantically rushing out the door, and cursing myself when getting to work late meant having to stay at work late to make up for it. From the first morning, I was up and out of bed on time; no more snoozing or setting 5 alarms in the vain hope that they fifth one will magically stir me out of bed. My boyfriend--who was getting pretty tired of my numerous and loud alarms--genuinely looked shocked when I walked out of the bedroom 45 minutes before I usually do. The key really is putting the block enough of a walk away from your bed that you get there and think "well, I'm already up, I might as well get ready." I put the block right next to where I lay out my clothes for the day so I can just throw them on and start my morning routine, but other good places would be by your toothbrush or in by the coffee machine. Just put it right next to whatever you start your day with so you're already there and it takes no further effort/thought to get on with your morning. I've been slowly easing myself into waking up earlier by setting the Unbed alarm 5 minutes earlier each week. Maybe one day I'll be one of those people who works out in the morning; unlikely, but a girl can dream.

Great product, beyond annoying sounds that are loud enough to wake me up and force me out of bed at the unholy hour my job requires. Get the wall mount!

I must be a special type of stubborn because I had to move it from my fridge (hello coffee) to my oven so I would actually stay awake instead of stumbling back to bed. Thankful this kept me more stubborn to get up!
