Best clock radio ever
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This clock radio is small but very useful. It has a backup battery so if the power goes out it continues to work. It also has a feature that shows the time on the ceiling so you can just look up to check the time. It's the best clock radio I've ever had. Great value for the price.

Great design and function, cannot run on battery
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty intuitive and easy to set up and use. I really like its small footprint and minimalist design. It is nice that it has an option to set two separate alarms. For being a small clock with minimal features, it would be really nice if it could run regularly on battery power too, then it could be placed anywhere that doesn't have an electrical outlet. The battery it uses is a button battery for watches, and is just for a short amount of time for power blips.

Great basic alarm clock
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this so I could have a weekday alarm and a weekend alarm, which works good with having dual alarms. I like the adjustable brightness and snooze setting too. I only have two complaints. First of all, do NOT touch the screen where the number display is because it will take a glasses cleaning cloth to get them out, not even a shirt would work. Lastly, I cannot believe they have to have a button to turn the radio on, and then another to turn it off, I don't like that. Some reviews state that the buttons are cheap, flimsy plastic, they have a point but they aren't bad, however if it is dark you can't see them to turn the alarm off. Overall, very good for only 30 bucks.

Awesome Clock
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to set up, doesn’t take up much room. I love that I can charge my phone and the alarm feature that starts to radio station music low and slowly get louder to wake me up rather than startling. Time illumination on the ceiling or wall was the selling point for me. This clock offers so many benefits!

Nice Alarm Clock, Worth The Money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a nice alarm clock. It's small, has a nice display, and the projection feature is wonderful. It is nice and clear but not distracting at night. The nature sounds are nice, although I don't really use them. I like that the clock sets itself and automatically adjusts for Daylight Saving Time. This clock is worth the slightly expensive price tag.

Nice radio and alarm
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This dual alarm clock radio is compact which gives it a small foot print, which is good for a bed side table. It is easy to use, has a good sound and comes with clear directions. A bonus was the radio was on sale.

Nice clock with projector.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The main reason I bought this clock over others is the ability to display time on walls or ceilings via the projector. The projector works well and is very easy to read in the middle of the night without creating annoying light pollution. My only gripe is that the projector turns itself off after 16 hrs...wish the user could select timed or always on.

Beautifully designed and practical
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After 4 months: PROS: --Easy to set up in spite of being complex --Easy to set/change dual alarms, even in the dark --Radio tuner is precise and love the ability to program 5 presets --Time projector is amazing (though I no longer use it) in its ability to rotate and focus time projection anywhere on wall or ceiling --Easy-to-set snooze alarm in 10 min. increments up to one hour for the sleep deprived --Options to set alarms with different radio stations or sounds --Option to turn off music after 90 to 15 min. in 15 min. increments --3 dimmable LED light levels + can turn off LED altogether --Love the dual use + and - buttons to change alarm times and volume --Backup battery --Excellent set up directions even for the technically challenged; well organized and extremely clear; great illustrations --USB port to charge smartphone --Flexible wire antenna works well if set up high --Automatic DST adjustment CONS: --Nature sounds too artificial and on obvious loops --Time projection is too bright - not good for insomniacs! --Sound is not bad but not great; just OK Suggestions for future product iteration: --Add better speaker even if slightly larger (I am spoiled by my old Sony Dream Machine} --Maybe storage to upload and wake up to recorded music from USB Well-designed appliance that feels better than it needs to be. Overall I am delighted with this product. Does everything as promised and exceeds expectations. My last alarm clock was a Sony that I loved for 15 years until it failed; this one if it proves durable will retain my brand loyalty and may extend over to trying other Sony electronic products.

Very happy with this product!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The alarm clock works great. I was mostly interested in the projection function and the FM radio and both function perfectly so far. Good stuff: I love that the projection can be rotated and freely directed in any position. The clock has a sturdy plug to the wall so that I am not worried that my night stand crushes it when pushed against it. The FM radio reception is good. Three different display lighting levels. The USB port for charging has been also very useful for me to charge my phone and other devices like my ipod and portable speakers. Bad stuff: Nothing too important but maybe it matters to some. When I plug my iphone to charge, while having the radio on, the reception suffers and I get considerable noise along with the station broadcast, that only stops if I unplug my phone. I wish this clock had an AUX input to use it as speaker, it would have been a great additional feature. It is also a bit pricey for a radio alarm clock, in my opinion.

Only fair sound, but good tuner
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I believe I paid around $25 for this little square. When I first got it home, I was happy to discover that set-up--entering date/time--was fairly easy. Then I saw the 2 rotary dials--like little "wheels--on either side of the case. The R side: for volume. The L side: for tuning in one's preferred radio stations. I was at first disappointed, thinking this analogue tuner would not be as accurate & powerful as a digital version. But I was pleasantly surprised: the tuner was able to bring in my favorite (classical) radio station all the way from downtown--one hour away by car. This was something my previous digital clock radio had great trouble doing. My only 2 complaints: one, the sound quality isn't great; no mistaking this for a Bose; then again, it's also 15 times cheaper. And two: most of the function buttons are on the top--where over time, dust could settle: dust, the enemy of all electronics! But all in all, a good little device with which to wake oneself up.
