The Carpet Alarm Clock Wakes You Up -- Hopefully

The Carpet Alarm
(Credit: Gizmodo)When I first saw this product, I wasn't sure if it was a joke or the most irritable product I have ever seen. Why irritable you say? Well, who wants to firmly plant both of their feet on an alarm clock just to turn off that awful noise? I prefer a simple click of a button that gives me another five or ten minutes, but that's just me.
The alarm clock mat, designed by Sofie Collin & Gustav Lanberg, is not only soft on the feet, it tells you the time with the help of an embedded LCD.
Not bad for the bedroom, eh? Just remember to keep it close to the bed; no one likes to get out of bed to turn the alarm off.
