Proof positive that something doesn’t have to look techy to do the job, L. L. Bean’s classic mid-century clock (the first iteration was introduced in 1952) uses a brightening LED light to rustle you awake and has a USB outlet—in case you really need the phone beside you. —M. G.

Better to tell you what these are not: They are not headphones. And they’re not noise-canceling. Instead, Bose has created a pair of light Bluetooth-connected buds, built to fit snugly and comfortably into your ear (even with your head on your side) like earplugs. They stream only ten “sleep tracks”—think the hum of an airplane cabin or a babbling brook—which can play for 16 hours on a single charge, covering up any disturbances during the night and tucking you in a sonic cocoon of sleep.
