Your home burning down would not be great. Your home burning down with you in it would be much, much worse. Which is why it’s important to have working smoke alarms in your home. If you’re tired of trying to reach the ones on the ceiling and/or hate the look of them, the Smoke Alarm Clock is for you.

It’s exactly what the title suggests. It’s a clock, with a smoke alarm on the back. Meaning if you hear it beeping, you should probably investigate the kitchen because it doesn’t mean it’s time to start getting ready for work, it means your life might be in danger.

The clock has an attractive, subtle design. It does look like a kitchen clock but if you put it there then you need to space it some distance away from your stove or else it will be singing to you every time you cook. It runs on one AA battery for the clock and a 9v battery for the alarm. So one can work without the other. As silly as it seems, this is a great product to help people who can’t really reach up to the alarms installed on ceilings. The Smoke Alarm Clock is £29.99.
