This is a great radio alarm clock. Clock display is easy to read day or night. Great snooze feature that allows you to decide how much snooze time every time the alarm goes off. Just tap the bar for any increments of 10 minutes additional snooze time. Its a great product.

Good clock but radio is hard to tune

Good clock, looks great and easy to read at night from anywhere in the room.
The radio is hard to tune if multiple stations are broadcasting at nearby frequencies because the tuning dial is very sensitive to small movements and the exact current frequency is not displayed by the device.

A little small to read for my eyesight, although I do have a rather large room, but other than that the radio clock works amazing, serves its purpose very well. All the features on it are very user-friendly and accomodate my taste, its definitely for a minimalist. Altogether I'd say its a great clock and has a sleek simple but cool design.

Decent little alarm clock. Does everything I need it to do. The one unfortunate thing is that it seems it doesnt hold a tune to certain stations after a while. If you set it on a station then wait for the alarm to go off half the time it goes static. Holds the time properly and the normal alarm functions great. Sound quality is alright but overall a solid purchase.

I like this little Sony a lot. Easy to set up and has a small footprint on my night stand. The display has 3 settings and the sound is good for such a small unit. The alarm is somewhat low but if you use the radio alarm mode you can adjust the volume. Overall a nice little alarm clock.

Cute clock radio

Let me start off by saying this is NOT the Sony of many years ago; quality product that was mostly made in Japan. This is made in China, as most electronics are these days. However, the quality if actually very good, much better than like items that I had previously purchased online from the mega-seller.
As mentioned by others, there is more than normal static on AM but FM comes in very clear. The AM static mostly clears up when you turn the radio around, but then you may not be able to see the time. I might add that the radio dial is analog, not digital, so tuning in a station takes getting used to if you have never done this before. But that also makes this more retro as there is no bluetooth or any charging ports like so many modern clock radios have. This is perhaps my favorite characteristic, it is like clock radios of yesteryear.
It is very compact and nice looking. For the price, you can't go wrong.

The Radio Alarm clock is a favorite to have. It wakes me up in the morning and sends me to sleep at night. The music is loud and clear and there are a variety of stations to choose from. If you want a clear and compact clock that doesn't take up much space, this is the one to have.

The Good: small size, several sleep settings, decent sound,
clear time display, automatic DST, reasonable price.
The BAD: analog tuning wheel (Although it "might" have a
digital tuner behind it.), NO WAY to select a particular station
directly.

It is easy to use, small and compact. However, it does not pick up stations very well and the sound has little base. Therefore not very good for listening.

If you’re looking for an alarm clock, then this is it. It does need to be plugged in and has no ports to plug your phone into so consider that. But it works as described, if you are a fan of geometric shapes then you’ll appreciate the cube-ness. Do NOT throw away the books and papers, you will need it to set up the time.

I love this clock radio I love the fact if you wind up being unplugged and you plug it back in, it will show the exact time no matter how many days went by, I love the alarm that it just come on the program the way you want, no problem and a timer for the stews button. If you want to listen to some music. Also, time yourself to be able to get out the house.

I gave a 4 star rating due to the dial's that are used for the volume and the radio stations are rather small and can be a bit frustrating. It is a good size and the background light is not too bright at night and easy to read.

It is difficult to set the time unless you have more hands and very quick reflexes. I'm using it two hours off because it just wasn't worth any more effort. The minutes are correct. It tells the time well enough, so I'll recommend it.

Best clock around

This is the best alarm clock, according to my dad. I purchased it for him so he can wake up early and he has been very happy with this one. The numbers are easy to read but also dim enough at nighttime that it does not affect his sleep. And the alarm sound is fantastic. It starts of low and gradually increases so you wake up more naturally. Would buy again.
