Customers consistently note the nature sounds to be a great feature that helps them get to sleep. The compact size of the clock radio is also well-received, with customers appreciating its space-saving design. However, there are some concerns about the display being hard to read at night and the brightness level even at the medium setting. Some customers also find the instructions to be more complicated than expected.

I bought this to fit in a tiny space, and am very pleased with the reception. I've been using it several week and it is working fine.

Good sound for a small radio. I have some birds and they like to listen to music. Great for them and they like the sounds also.

I looked everywhere for a good AM radio. My husband listens to talk radio on AM. One of the store employees suggested this radio. It is excellent. It has an external antenna that does a great job. Also the relaxing sounds that you can listen to (Birds churping, rain, etc) are wonderful. It is very easy to set the time, stations, alarms, etc. I would highly recommend this radio to anyone who needs an AM radio.

This clock has a self-charging battery so it alarms even if the power goes out. You can also set the display to low high or off.

I was looking for a small modern looking clock radio to replace a big, bright led display that was hard to set. This radio can automatically set the time...wonderful. The white noise stuff is not worth any extra expense, the radio sound quality is fine considering the small size of the unit. The FM sensitivity/tuning is good, the AM is so, so; and kind of noisy at the low end of the dial. But overall I'm satisfied.

It is perfect except perhaps for the blue back lighting for reading clock at night. I just turn it on briefly to check time as even with dimmer setting it is a bit bright and does not really provide an easy read. Perhaps if just the actual time were illuminated instead of the background it would read more easily without being so bright when you are trying to sleep. Really like the sounds library.

The background lights up blue and the time is in black. I was unable to read the time from across the room. I was unable to see it at all at night. I would rather have the numbers light up.

The price was right. I like that two alarms can be set - one for the work week and the other for the weekend.

Lots of options... but max volume level is way too low for the 5 sounds for sleeping...and only a few sounds are relaxing for me..doesn't mask outside noises ..

This is a difficult to program alarm. It is not intuitive and required that I utilize the instructions for its reprogramming because of its difficulty in use. Not only that, it's dimmest setting is blazingly bright such that my entire room is lit like a runway. I suppose if you don't mind a relatively complicated arm to program and choose to have a brighter display then this is the one for you. I prefer simple to use features that are at least somewhat intuitive.

Bad FM reception

The radio comes with an AM antenna but no external FM antenna. We want it on a table next to our bed. We get nothing but static when the radio is tuned to the PBS FM station we like to listen to.

Loving this radio. Feels and acts very durable, and I get wonderful reception, unlike others I've bought that seem very poorly made.
