    The iHome looks great and sound perfect. The clock is easy to see and read. The alarm feature is awesome and wakes up my teenager.

    I purchased an iHome alarm clock that also has a docking station for an iPod. The sound is great and the music is very clear.

    Nice compact unit with decent sound. Very tight interface which makes it tough to connect larger phone such as an iPhone 6 Plus.

    I was having an issue finding a docking station to fit an iPhone 5. I was glad to find one on the Best Buy site. She said it works great and she enjoys using it to listen to music while studying in her room.

    I don't own an iphone, but my mom does. She complained that her alarm clock does not work, so I took her to Best Buy to pick out a new one. Her home phone system has Bluetooth, so we stayed away from the Bluetooth models of alarm clocks & picked this model on-purpose, which doesn't have Bluetooth (thus won't make confusion with too many Bluetooth devices in the house accessing her phone). This model was not on display, but was in the box. The sales staff heard what she was looking for and steered us to this model or 1 other. She liked the display on this one better, so we got it. Okay, I know I've been living under a rock (or Diamond called Samsung Galaxy4!), but apparently Apple changed the charging jack when iPhone 5 was released. Of course, we opened this box up to see that the jack was not compatible, which is when this fact became apparent to me. The box doesn't boldly state that this alarm clock is only compatible with iPhone 5, but it does say it in about 8 point font on the bottom of the box. --- I drove to WalMart & bought another model that she loves which is compatible to her iPhone4S. Anyway, I'm sure this alarm clock works great, I just wish it said in bold letters on the box: Compatible with iPhone5 (instead of as it is, where it does not boldly warn that it doesn't work with iPhone4). So: I've got no known problems with this product, just the packing & sales staff that didn't pick up on the charging jack issue.

    Very nice unit. It can be used even with a spin case on my 6s. However, even the lowest setting of the brightness control was too bright for when going to sleep- the backlighting specifically.

    Works well. Sound is good...not great. Dims well. Only thing I don't like is that I can't connect my iPhone with my Otterbox on it.

    Not very user friendly as far as the technological aspect. The sound is good, very clear. Radio stations come in clearly with the minimal antenna.

    Has all it needs. Updates time automatically when you connect phone or ipod. However. Prong too short. If you have a case in your iphone, it will probably not charge. Needs a longer connector.
