Okay, so I was skeptical at first because my nightstand is basically a graveyard of half-working gadgets. But this HOUSBAY thing? LEGIT.

The white noise options are chef’s kiss—I use the campfire sound every night and pretend I’m glamping. The Bluetooth speaker is shockingly decent for audiobooks (RIP my old echo dot).

Wireless charging works like a charm for my phone, though my partner’s thicker case sometimes struggles. Pro tip: align it just right!

The gentle sunrise alarm is a mood. Waking up to soft light + birds chirping > demonic beeping. My cat even approves (and she hates everything).

Only gripe? The mesh clock face looks artsy but makes time slightly harder to read with sleepy eyes. Still—10/10 would buy again. Already eyeing the lavender color for our guest room!
