Loftie Clock competes with Hatch Restore 3 rather than with the Dohm, and its selling point is that nothing sits behind a paywall. Loftie says all 100+ sounds and tracks, including white noise, brown noise, nature sounds, sound baths and breathwork, are included with no subscription. The two-phase alarm plays a soft sound that fades after 30 seconds, then a second melody 3, 6 or 9 minutes later to get you out of bed. The clock needs the app and 2.4GHz Wi-Fi for setup and updates, but after that it can run in a no Wi-Fi mode, and a backup battery keeps it going for a few hours if unplugged. A sleep timer, nightlight, red mode and blackout mode cover the rest of the night. At $199.99 it is the priciest machine here and more than most people need for noise masking, but over a few years it can cost less than a clock with a monthly fee.
