Sleepy bunny alarm clock - faulty or rubbish?

[sleepinghunter]

Has anyone else bought and had problems with red and yellow sleep bunny alarm clock? Have just resorted to it to try and persuade DD1 aged 2yrs to stay in bed until gone 6:30am. Was great the first night, but after second night she was up at six and when I took her back to her room 'sleepy bunny' was also already awake. She has just woken and got up an hour after bedtime and the bunny was awake when I put her back to bed - having been set at bedtime - presumably the movement of the ears as it woke woke her up. It is either just a really rubbish purchase as the alarm is only twelve hour and I have real problems getting it to set with the bunny's eyes closed at 7pm for a 6:30 alarm, or this one is faulty. Would love to know if it is worth taking back to exchange or whether to get a refund and grit my teeth about morning wakings!!! Please let me know.

I found ours was rather sensitive when the wake up time was close to the going to bed time, IYSWIM. DD has since broken it by dropping it, so the hands are no longer connected, so we don't use it any more. Cod has recommended this one as a good one, and I think other people have had success with it too. Good luck - hope you get it all sorted, one way or another.

rubbish
they always break
they recalled them all, changed the manufacturing process and starting making them again, but they STILL break

take it back and give up

NO its nt that good.

Ours has been known to wake dd up when its ears flung apart (clunk) and it needs to be set after 8pm for a 7am start.

Lots of threads about it on here - wish I'd read them before I bought it! That said, it does do the trick when they are trained with it - dd knows to check if bunny is awake before coming through.

Bloody rubbish. It really annoys me that I can't seem to get it to go to sleep when my daughter does as I'm trying to set it for seven - also the time that I'm putting her to bed. Yesterday she flookily woke at seven fifteen and the bloody thing slept on. Today it woke her at six thirty. It's really rubbish. Having said that we are still sticking with it as a method of getting dd to stay in her room till seven. She's nearly three and I'm fed up of being woken early. I've told her to play in her room until the bunny is awake. If it's sleeping on past a time I've told her to get up I just go in and 'make' the bunny wake up pretending to my dd that it just happened to wake at that time. But ir really is a rubbish design....

we used a time switch on a lamp - if the lamp's not on it was still the "middle of the night" still. worked well, as it didn't actually wake them when it came on
