Neverlate: an Alarm with Attitude

Neverlate: an Alarm with Attitude

American Innovative has sent us the most comprehensive alarm clock we've tried to date: their Neverlate Executive 7-Day Alarm Clock. The Neverlate comes equipped with three banks of seven alarm settings—21 alarms total—to accomodate even the most complicated sleep schedules.

For a student, this is a lifesaver. I personally have classes only on Tuesdays and Thursday—and I can't remember my name if you don't remind me, let alone to remember to set an alarm—so it's nice to have an alarm pre-set for each day of the week.

You may argue, "but my cell phone can already do that," and you'd be 100% correct (I presume). The Neverlate, however, also sports a USB charging jack (for your iPhone, perchance), a 1/8" stereo AUX input, and an optimized speaker system for blasting your Green Day music files from your music player. The clock also hosts a wide variety of customization options, including an adjustable display brightness, configuring pre-set radio stations, and setting snooze duration.

Using the device can be a bit tricky at first—its features are a bit much for the average alarm clock consumer. The alarm selection, for instance, is controlled by a knob on the top—it's not too bad once you get used to it, but there's definitely a bit of a learning curve.

Overall, the Neverlate Executive is a decent buy and certainly at the top of its class.

American Innovative is currently out of stock, but the device retails for $59.95.

Our rating: 4/5

I used the Neverlate alarm clock and, despite its boxy look, I enjoyed its many features that made it a step up from your normal alarms.

One of my favorites was the nap button. You could hit this button and an alarm would go off after a specified amount of time (the default was 20 minutes).

Overall a good buy if you want to fork out some extra money for an alarm clock that can do everything you would ever need an alarm clock to do.

The Neverlate alarm clock just wasn't useful to me (over and above a regular alarm clock). I tend to get up at the same time every morning. When I don't, I usually don't know until the night before- at which time I reset the alarm as needed. As a result, I didn't find the seven-day alarms particularly practical. And the every-day alarms are just the same thing my normal alarm clock would do- for a lot less I might add.
This might be useful if you have a weekly schedule where you wake up at a different time each day. Otherwise, it isn't worth the extra expense.
