Lidl is selling a £2.99 alarm clock that closely resembles more expensive models at Dunelm and John Lewis. The LIVARNO Alarm Clock, available in white or black, features a quiet quartz movement with no ticking and measures 80 x 81 x 40mm, making it suitable for a bedside table.
Affordable Alternative to Premium Retailers
The clock is part of Lidl's 'Middle of Lidl' aisle, which rotates twice weekly and stocks DIY tools, seasonal items, kitchen accessories, and garden goods. It comes with a 3-year warranty and is available in-store only, with home delivery not offered. Shoppers can check stock levels via the online store finder.
Comparison with Dunelm and John Lewis Models
At Dunelm, the Acctim Otis Bell Analogue Alarm Clock is priced at £17—nearly six times the Lidl price. Dunelm describes it as featuring a square shape, gentle backlight, non-ticking sweep movement, nostalgic bell alarm, and snooze function, with a choice of case colours.
John Lewis sells the Analogue Square Alarm Clock, which looks similar to the Lidl model. Its product description notes a beep alarm with snooze, luminous hands, a light, and a non-ticking sweep seconds hand. The only noticeable differences from the Lidl clock, aside from price, are the backlight, a more modern aesthetic, and delivery to your door.
