I purchase this i Jenson clock/radio because I was constantly losing my phone and when I would wake up i wanted to know what time it was to go to work. Also because I wanted to listen to the radio while I did chores. It is good because it has big numbers but the radio is not so good. I didn't like the radio because when u want to volume it sounds distorted and it doesn't have a lot of volume either. I had to read the Manuel multiple times to set some radio stations and to try to fix the time. Found out at the end it was just easier to disconnect it and then put the time. Overall the clock does have some good features like 2 alarms and Tempeture sensor but I didn't like the radio quality. If u want it for the clock buy it but if u want a radio just buy a radio

Far too complicated for what it is. The instructions are unclear and printed so small as to be unreadable without a magnifying glass. It appears to only offer 3 options for alarm sounding (Mon-Fri, Mon-Sat and 7 days), bad because I only work 3 days a week (M-W-F) and my schedule varies the other days. Radio can only be tuned through the selector buttons, it does not have a dial tuner. My church's rummage sale is next month, this is where it's going. I give it no stars and would not recommend it. Save your money.

Nice clock but JMJ - tooo complicated and the buttons don't cooperate and it's more frustrating to get everything to work - clock time, temp, radio, day/date. AND AND AND the instruction booklet printing IS SOOOOOOO SMAAALLLLL you really DO NEED a magnifying glass to read it!!! All I got out of it is the time and date. Unless you have eyes like an eagle to read the instructions and the patience of a saint to deal with this --- get a nice normal alarm and a separate radio!!!!

Customers are impressed with the AM/FM Dual-Alarm Clock Radio with Wave Sensor, but there are some drawbacks. Customers appreciate the convenience of the wave sensor, but they find the clock manual difficult to understand. Additionally, some customers have experienced radio distortion and difficulty turning off the radio in one step.
