Product Description
Having a few extra hours sleep in the morning during the week or on the weekend is oh so relaxing, but there are consequences. You could be late for work so often you get the sack, cannot pay your mortgage, and have to live on the streets. Or you could miss your Sunday morning footy game with the lads and not score that amazing goal that makes you a legend for life. This is why you need the brilliant flying alarm clock, that will keep you off the streets and ensure you live life to the fullest. So, what sets this alarm clock apart from your normal alarm that you can simply set the snooze time for 1 hour? Well, for a start when the alarm goes off, the top propeller driven rotor starts to spin and flies off into the air landing on the other side of your bedroom. The alarm is like a siren and WILL wake you up. The best bit is that the siren will not stop until you retrieve the top propeller and slot it back into the alarm clock. The Flying Alarm Clock is an ideal gift for anyone who's incapable of getting up in the morning, or if that description applies to you then buy this as a gift to yourself and stop sleeping in and get the most out of life!

it is so much fun! the noise of it wakes you up and then you have to find the propellor and by the time you have you are too awake to go back to sleep! it works well!

Good price and product is exactly as described. When alarm goes off the helicopter flies off and the alarm keeps sounding until you find it and put it back on top of the base unit. Makes it a bit harder to stay asleep, so it does the job - and it's quite amusing too (unless you really don't want to get up !)

Made me laugh, and a good idea, but completely unreliable and very annoying.
The display isn't illuminated so it's almost impossible to read at any time of day. The alarm clock resets itself every time it's used, and doesn't always go off.
You can't plug it into the mains.
But it is very funny when it does go off - the propellor whizzes around, floats right up to the ceiling and comes back down again, and if your room is untidy or it's dark it can take a very long time to find it. You need to put it back in the alarm clock to turn the sound off, so by the time you've done that you're guaranteed to be awake...
And herein lies the main problem: the siren sound is extremely loud and, well, horrible, so if you can't find the propellor straight away you will aggravate your neighbours as well as give yourself a pretty unpleasant start to the morning! It sounds like you're in the blitz. And the makers have made sure you can't cheat: there is no way of turning the alarm off without inserting the propellor - believe me, I've tried! You have to take the batteries out, which are screwed in so you need a screwdriver to get at them - even chucking the thing on the floor or smothering it under pillows doesn't work.
As someone who hates mornings anyway this just didn't help with my mood, so it's gone to a charity shop! Good luck to the next owner!

Not a 'flying' alarm clock.
I bought this product as a birthday present. The actual clock is fine and the alarm works (despite being a siren noise), however it does not fly anywhere and just stays in the... Read more

Not what I expected
Delivery was quick but the clock itself wasn't up to much. Instead of flying, the top bit just slips off the base and heads straight for the floor.

Many times, this clock doesn't work
One month ago I bought this clock for a children birthday and the only thing that worked was the time, but not the light, not the alarm and not the flight. Read more

Total fail
It arrived on time, that's the only highlight.
I opened it and set the time all fine, then set the alarm a minute later to test it which is easily done. Read more

The first thing I noticed, and anyone should notice with this alarm clock it is extremely loud when it goes off which I guess you could say is a good thing. Read more
