    I purchased this item about a month ago. It was very easy to set up and so far is working really well. It is a very simple radio alarm clock with no other bells and whistles, which is just what I was looking for.

    Sony ICF C1 Radio Alarm Clock black - review

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It's a neat, well-compressed AM-FM clock radio with alarm. Good clear speaker. Because the radio is black and the buttons are black, it's not easy to see the buttons, especially at night. I listen to FM radio and sometimes the signal seems to drift on its own to an adjacent station and I have to reset it using a dial. Overall, I like the radio.

    Buzzer alarm function is useless.

    I received this small foot print clock radio as a gift to replace my old alarm clock. I f you like waking up to the radio this item is ideal. I loved that it knows the time when you plug it in. It's easy to set and the tone is ok. If you use the buzzer to wake this item is useless. The buzzer is almost inaudible even after its gradually increases the volume. Thought maybe the clock was defective so I watched several YouTube reviews. All had the same volume issue. Will be exchanging this for an alarm that has a normal volume level.

    I literally had this same model given to me as a gift 30 years ago. Glad I was able to find this style. The alarm buzz is a little quieter than my old unit. It still gets the job done though and wakes me up.

    Very basic clock radio

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    All the buttons & switches are black, like the radio. You have to memorize where they are. I should have read the description closely. The numbers are smaller than I'd like. It's hard to see the time across the room. It has one alarm; radio or alarm. Like I said, very basic.

    Purchased this radio for a bathroom. I like to have music around me all the time. This little piece fit well. Sound is about what I would expect from the size.

    mediocre, AVOID- TERRRIBLE SONY customer service

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I purchased this Clock radio because it is a Sony and I was tired of cheap poor-quality clocks. after 5 weeks or so I noticed it was not keeping time and would run fast. I inquired about a replacement but was beyond the BB return policy date (30 days). Sony started a warranty repair and determined it was not repairable so a replacement is authorized. I received an email and shipping label for the return. Sony will not ship the replacement until to old one is returned. When I called customer service to address this issue of not having any clock while my old one was returned and a replacement issued I spoke with a very angry, unhelpful, service rep who refused to let me speak to a supervisor or anyone else at the customer service department. I am Very unhappy I spent $70 on a "premium" clock radio for this. On top of it, I got to argue about the email that was sent to me and what is and is not in the email. If you are looking for a "good" clock radio, keep looking, this one is not worth the extra money, and if you have an issue, good luck with customer service. AVOID!

    Poor reception

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I liked this boxy style and settings seemed easy. BUT i got very little reception. The two stations I always listen to (NPR) were impossible. I tried every "fix" recommended but nothing worked. Im probably tossing it rather than go through the annoyance of returning.

    You would think that an alarm clock would be able to keep the time. The sony I had ran about 3-4 fast per month. I rate this clock radio the worst I have ever had. I got so fed up with it, I tossed it into the trash.

    Runs way too fast. I have 2 and they both cannot keep correct time. In a week it'll be 5 minutes off.
