My old clock of 40+ years finally bit the dust. I found this GPX Clock at Best Buy and it is exactly what I needed for replacement. It has multiple features like dual alarm and AM/FM radio. I just want it for large, easy to read green numerals so I can see it at night or from a distance.

This radio has decent sound. It picks up many stations that my previous clock radio did not. It has a large time display in green. The numbers are two inches tall making it easy to read from across the room. It's easy to set the time, alarms and stations. Buttons are on the top. The speaker is on the back. It also has battery backup which will reset to the correct time if the radio us unplugged or if power goes off. A great radio for an inexpensive price.

Nice large numbers, a little larger than I was looking for, but large and easy to read. I bought because faqs gave instructions for a nap feature but this clock does not have one. The alarm weather set to beep or radio starts low but quickly increases to full volume. The sleep timer is nice and can be set up to 90 minutes in 10 minute increments.

I Purchased this to replace a 15 year old clock that gained time by a minute or two a month. It had larger green numbers like this and had a dim feature that my wife liked at night. This clock is keeping time well now for the time i've had it now, and the screen dims at night, but us still fairly bright. I do not mind, but my wife is more sensative and so i did add a small piece of tint ot the screen for her. That being said, it's no fault of the clock, so I deducted no stars. Radio works fine, the buzzer gently gets louder to wake you up. Setting it was easy and has battery back up, so if the power goes out, no issues when it restarts. 2 alarms are useful, i have a work day and non work day set up. The price and utility if this are spot on, good value and functions like it should. I reccomend this.

I recently purchased this nice clock radio. It has easy to read large numbers for the time display (w/o wearing glasses) and it is not so bright as to light up the bedroom at night. The radio sound and volume is good and the alarm function easy to program. It definitely meets its designed purpose well and does not take up much space on the nightstand. I am satisfied with the product at this price point.
Only one negative comment: the instructions were printed on one tissue-like sheet of paper that was in several languages and printed in such a small font as to be unreadable. So, only complaint is that the instructions are difficult to read and follow for initializing the clock functions. I needed to bring out the magnifying glass to make sense of the small print on the instruction sheet. I did not see a reference to an online How To guide to set this clock radio. It might be there, but could not find it or see it. I would have used an on line instruction to safe time if it were available.
Fortunately, having experience with other clock radios of this type, I was able to get the clock radio to work after a few tries on the buttons.
Basic clock radio, easy to read numbers, takes us little space, good sound, good price. I would recommend this item.

Too bright & you can't turn off the blinking dots

I just wanted a basic alarm clock with large numbers to tell time at night and I figured that even the cheapest clock would be fine, but I was wrong. They somehow managed to botch all the basic functionality one would expect:
1. It is too bright to place on the nightstand, it lit up my bedroom more than an iPad at full brightness. The quality of the light is ugly and harsh compared to a vintage 80s/90s alarm clock.
2. Flashes constantly - The colon/dots between the hours and minutes blink every second and this annoying blinking cannot be turned off
3. The controls suck and status indicator lights are confusing. Setting the time was fine, but setting the alarm and radio stations is not intuitive nor is it obvious what each button press is doing.
4. The power cable is very short
To be fair it does have some pros:
- inexpensive
- large clear display
- easy to set time
I returned it because of the constant blinking, it really surprised me that no other reviews mentioned this. Do people actually want their nightstand clock to be blinking 60 times a minute??

I bought this for a Christmas gift for my boyfriend and he really liked it. The numbers are larger than usual and it was easy for him to set up the alarm, which he often has trouble with and asks me to do it. The price was fantastic also being under $15.00. I'd definitely recommend this to others.

Great clock for the price. I needed a clock with numbers large enough for my husband to see across the bedroom. This clock is perfect. The clock has a dual-alarm that can be used with the radio or an alarm. I set the alarm with music for my husband and a buzzer for me. Works great.

Needed a clock with large number in green and this is perfect. It does have a radio, whick I don't need so haven't tried it. Wanted it to put on top shelf in bedroom so I could see what time it was from any position. Makes a great night light also.

Use primarily as a clock and enjoy large bright display. Time is easy to adjust but setting alarm was a bit tricky for me. Radio seems ok but really do not use that function. Very satisfied with purchase as a digital clock thats easy to see.

The clock look good and operates great. I gave a 3 because it's little unnecessarily complicated to set the alarm. Also when the alarm goes off the volume starts out low but constantly increases to it's maximum volume until you turn it down or shut it off. Then again it gets a little complicated. At 5:00 AM I don't want to wake up the people in the next apartment as I try to shut it off.

We needed a new clock radio for the bathroom. It is great to have one with a large clock display that we can read easily even when we don't have our glasses on. The display is bright and can be dimmed a bit. We like the bright setting. The radio works fine and gets decent enough reception though we don't use it as a radio all that often. It is a clock, it is a radio and both work just fine.

I like the simplicity of this and how easy to use, however, the time is dropping one or two minutes or going forward two minutes. Otherwise it's bright and especially for people who has distance eye problem like myself I was able to see the time a ways off.

The large numbers on this alarm clock make it visible from many parts of the room. I also like the battery back-up feature.
