Good if you need a dim lightNov 20, 2009 I really loved my previous dual alarm, but it was backlit and just WAY too bright for me. After a ton of searching, I ended up with this clock. I pretty much only use the radio alarm. All in all this is a good buy for the money.
PROS:
1. Light has 3 settings. Dimmest is kind of dim to see in a brightly lit room, but also dim emough so as not to be distracting and annoying when trying to sleep in a dark room. This was very important to me (I had to cover the previous one up with a tissue each night to dim it!) and I'm happy with it.
2. Very easy to set (and reset) each alarm. No buttons to push - each of the alarm settings just has a dial you turn to get to the right time and to turn it on or off. Very easy. They are totally independent, so you could have one alarm set for the AM with the radio and one alarm set for the PM with the buzzer and both would work.
3. Excellent price.
4. Custom snooze - hit the button once for 10 min snooze, hit it twice for 20 min snooze, etc. I often forget about this feature in the AM, but it is really nice if I can ever remember to hit it twice!
5. No external antenna wire.
6. Other reviewers have mentioned the limitations of the auto-set feature. Luckily I'm Eastern Time Zone so it was easiest for me and I've had no problems with it.
CONS:
1. My old alarm would automatically reset the alarm for the next day until you turned it off. I was looking for one that did that OR had M-F/weekend settings, but couldn't find one that was dim enough. So this one I have to remember to set each night before bed.
2. No digital tuner or fave stations settings. Not a huge problem, but would be a nice feature.
3. Lights indicating the alarm settings could be more clear.
4. It could be a but smaller and sleeker, but it's an alarm clock, so whatever.
small, simple, does its job well!Nov 05, 2009 Not too much to add from what others have been saying. I really do enjoy the dimming feature of the display. Also, having two alarms helps cause I usually sleep through the first one :-)
Forget about itNov 03, 2009 Great product. The display is dim-able great feature. You don't have to set the clock and the alarm continues to operate even without electricity. Good sound it is a clock radio. Could ask for more in a clock. Unless you could get one to go to work for you and just let you sleep.
Clock RadioOct 16, 2009 I'm very pleased with this product. It has everything i was looking for in an alarm clock radio.
So easy to use!Oct 07, 2009 I just got this alarm clock through the mail and it only took me about two minutes to set it up, without reading the instructions. I am going to buy another one for my guest room. What a great product!!
