There are many lovely things about sharing a bed with a loved one, but there are several annoyances related to sound that can make the arrangement uncomfortable for one or both parties. The Earlarm is a winner of the 2013 Red Dot Design Award that can be worn by one person and improve the sleep quality of two.
Functioning as noise-canceling ear plugs, this product muffles snoring, sleep-talking and more. The cleverer feature of the Earlarm is, however, that it works as a personal wake-up alert. The base of the device is a smartphone-controlled alarm clock with a retro look. This holds the Earlarm plugs to charge during the day and activates your choice soundtrack each morning without rousing your partner.
