Customers are saying

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.

    The clock is nice and easy to set up. Some times I like to just listen to music in my bedroom and this radio does not have the best sound. But it is a good alarm clock.

    It has done the job. The only issue is the Black LCD on a blue backlight is a little difficult to read at a distance... Keeps perfect time. Good audio quality. I purchased two. Might have bought LED instead of LCD if I did it again.

    After I purchased this radio (for a Christmas gift), I did some follow up research - reading other's reviews. Based on some of the "negative" reviews, I decided that is would not be suitable for my mother's use, and returned it.

    Standard alarm clock with 4 sounds for relaxing too. Can use the buzzer, radio, or the nature sounds to wake up to. Buzzer is quiet at first and progressively gets louder (love the snooze button)...Good product for the price.

    I like the fact that this clock radio has digital tuning. However, the buttons are small and could have been designed better. I really don't need all the nature sounds, just the basics would do. At night, the display is very bright, even on the lowest setting. This was the third clock radio I tried and I like it the best but there is still room for improvement. I'm not sure if I recommend it or not ~ you'd have to try it, or at least take it out of the box and look at it before you buy it.

    this is a fairly simply alarm with a lot of extra features that are generally not used. 2 alarms and a phone input..kind of hard to set time and alarm.

    This was the 4th clock/radio I bought trying to find one with great sound and reception. And for the cost it is really great. Glad I found this one and returned the other 3 to the appreciate stores and kept this one. Also easy set up and operate.

    We bought this speaker but the sound wasn't what I expect, if you need a clock to wake up this is perfect but if you need a speaker look for another product.

    I returned this alarm clock because of the brightness. Even on its lowest setting it was like a light was on in the room. Not recommended for a bedroom.

    Purchased this Sony clock radio to replace a clock radio I had owned for 25 or so years. Bought a Sony due to brand reputation. The sound from this radio is terrible. Very tinny and irritating. Since I already had it out of the box before finding out the sound was so bad, I decided to use it for a few days to see if I would get used to it. Still hated it after about 10 days and returned it to the store. I was told that since I had used it and it was not actually defective I could not return it. I am very disappointed with both Sony and BestBuy.

    Only issue is the blue background makes reading the clock difficult. My son can read it from his bed so it does everything we need.

    This works for what we use it for but don't expect it to serve as a radio or speaker system for your mp3 player and get good, rich sound. It reminds me more of a transistor radio's sound.
