    Cant recommend this one at all. A little over 18 months from purchase and several of the lights on the clock face have either went out or are extremely dim now making it difficult to read the time. Dont take my word for it. See the pic I included

    I like that I can charge both my phone & watch with this. I also like that the backlit clock adjusts based on the light in the room so it’s not crazy bright at night. Sometimes however, it’s difficult to get my phone in the exact right spot to charge it. About 1/4 of the time my phone ends up not charging at night.

    The first once bought didn't last but a couple of months before the l.e.d pixel started disappearing. Notified the company they sent another out, so far so good.

    If you are looking to clean up the clutter on your nightstand thus is the product for you. I have an otter box case on my iPhone 12 and it charges fine on top of the speaker. I often get up in the middle of the night and like to fall back asleep to soft music. The speaker sounds great at a low volume which is what I was looking for . Also the clock light is dim do it will not disturb you’d sleep Great product for the price - buy it!

    Display was fuzzy through the cloth. Alarms were difficult to turn on and off. Speaker was decent. Well made. Wouldn’t charge my Apple Phone with an Otter case. I have plenty that do. I returned it.

    Looks good and the two methods for charging your phone is great. The one negative is that the time display is not readily visible from all angles. It’s annoying to have to get the right angle to see the time. Otherwise good product.

    I bought this clock because the reviews stated that the face was dim. I’m not used to having a clock in my bedroom and I didn’t want anything that disturbed the quiet darkness. This close has a slight glow but is really perfect for people who don’t want a bright light glaring while they are trying to sleep. Wireless charger works great. Bluetooth is easy.

    Purchased last Christmas as a gift, by this Christmas, had to be replaced as the display had partially burned out, making the time not readable. Also, very difficult to set single alarm time.

    Really Good Alarm Clock / Charging Station

    This is a good alarm clock / wireless charger. The additional USB port on the back allows me to charge my phone and my watch at the same time. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because there are too many buttons on top that make operating certain functions more complicated than necessary.

    Great alarm clock, cool features, easy to use and looks pretty good. That said, the iPhone charging is spotty. If you don't get the phone placed just right on the top of the clock it doesn't charge or stops charging. Only to discover this in the morning when the battery is at Zero.

    I love the cordless charging feature! Overall the quality of this iHome clock isn’t great, the light have slowly died after only 6 month. My clock no longer holds time, I have to sync my phone to the clock to update the time.
