    This Sony FM/AN clock radio has good quality sound an fits nicely in a small space. The only drawback I have is the color of the digits and size of the clock display digits. The digits are an orange hue and the digits are smaller than anticipated.

    The style is modern, compact and stylist. The numerals on the clock are a nice size and can be easily seen across the room. When first plugging in the power the clock automatically goes to the correct time. The radio sound system is very good and comes out clearly. The alarm is easy to adjust and provides a pleasant tone. The cost was very reasonable for the high quality of the unit. I highly recommend it to you.

    This is our second purchase of this alarm clock. We have had one in the kitchen for a few years and it has worked well. My wife wanted an alarm clock that you don't need to find the manual to figure out how to set it or reset the time! On this model, there is a coin-type battery that lasts forever to maintain the time. If the time jumps forward or backward by an hour, you hit a button on the back side. That happened once in 3 years while we were cleaning the countertop. Since this is in the bedroom, I don't anticipate that happening--but it is an easy fix! The radio works great. The one in the kitchen is typically for talk radio or sports. Impressive sound for its small size.

    Clock radio - wakes me up, but needs improvement

    I was looking for a new "old school" clock radio, since I like to listen to the news first thing in the morning (gives me a good reason to go back to sleep). This was the only one I found at Best Buy and the price was reasonable. While it does what it is supposed to do, setting the alarm was not straightforward due to the small size of the buttons and the poor quality of the labels. Also, the ability to tune to a particular station is more by "feel" since there is no digital indication of the station. Finally, the ability to adjust the volume is awkward and has rather limited range. As I said, it gets the job done, but I am looking for a better solution.

    Good clock. If you like me and you dont want to use you iphone and have it next to you at night and dont want a fancy smart clock this is it. It does what it is suppose to...tell you the time and alarm goes off when you need to wake up. No non sense.

    I like the size of it and ease of operation but the sound of the radio stations are not very clear, a little fuzzy on all stations.

    So far have not overslept once. Best alarm clock I've had. Alarm tome is subtle but effective, no annoying startling noise. I recommend it 100%

    I purchased this clock to replace the same model I purchased about five years ago. It is a great piece of equipment! The battery backup is perfect whenever we have a small power outage. The quality of the radio is excellent and the alarm features are great!

    I really like the orange light, not too bright. Occasionally the switch is not fluid and gets stuck between buzz and radio and the alarm does not sound. Nice progressive buzzer to wake up to.

    Wow one of my best purchases. I love that it keeps time even when I lose power. Its alarm starts out quiet and gets louder over 30 seconds so you don’t have to worry about waking other people up. I love that it is dimmable and that the clock is elevated so I can see the time from my bed when it’s on top of the dresser.
