Summary : It not effective. Has manufacturing flaws.
This item would be great if it could do what it is described to do. The intensity of the vibration is not hard enough to be felt. Also the duration of the alarm/vibration is just 60 seconds. If used in the alarm only mode it is not loud enough. There is a flaw in the circuitry of the alarm in that it vibrates/alarms every hour on the hour and there is no way to adjust it not to. If you were to use this as an alarm for waking up your sleep would be disrupted every hour (that is if you even felt it or heard it). I would not recommend this product for any reason. Also the seller I purchased my from charges a 30% restocking fee. Pay attention to the return policy of the various resellers. I am now stuck with a product I cannot use.

Summary : Does contain a major design flaw, but it can be fixed
I just bought a shake-n-wake through Amazon, and also was troubled by the hourly chime, the "major design flaw" mentioned in another review.
I discovered that pressing the "Time Set" and "Mode" button simultaneously toggles the hourly chime on and off. When the date display indicates "SU MO TU WE TH FR SA" after pressing these buttons simultaneously, the hourly chime is on. The date display will go blank after toggling the hourly chime off.
You surely will want to turn the hourly chime off. Your local church may get away with ringing its bells every hour, but your shake-n-wake must not. It is disappointing that the instructions do not mention this feature, and that customer support was not able to help the person who wrote the earlier review.

Summary : Keeps the peace with your spouse!!!
This alarm is wonderful. I get up VERY early to exercise before work. This alarm makes sure I don't wake my husband up -- way before the crack of dawn!!

Summary : The Shake-N-Wake Alarm
The Shake-N-Wake was received just as listed. So far its working as expected. It's a little big so you can't wear it like a watch and it can be a distraction while trying to sleep because of its size. You do get use to it and as long as your partner is not a light sleeper you will like this alarm!

Summary : GOES OFF EVERY HOUR
Alarm clocks make noise and can wake others in the household. I purchased the "SHAKE-N-WAKE" as a vibrating alarm clock. The MAJOR DESIGN FLAW is that it vibrates every hour, on the hour. You can't shut off this feature.
I e-mailed customer support for instructions on disabling the hourly vibration. They sent me back a copy of the manual (that I already had) in which there is no mention of hourly vibrations.
When I asked for a return they replied that the "SHAKE-N-WAKE" was working as intended. Because it was not defective they're going to charge a 10% restocking fee.
An alarm clock that wakes me up 6-8 times throughout the night isn't defective?
