    Excellent Alarm 13 Nov 2009
    Amazon Verified Purchase
    Bought this to replace an ageing RC alarm clock that was loosing some LCD segments. This one is smart and modern and has a better alarm function. All in all a good portable alarm which folds flat, keeps perfect time and looks good.

    Well Made Good Price 17 Dec 2009
    By B. Pearson TOP 1000 REVIEWER
    Isn't it just a pain when you buy something for somebody else and end up keeping it yourself? My dear wife bought this little clock for me to give my old Mum.

    I didn't. I opened it originally to make sure it was easy to read and use. Well it is both in spades full. Neat design and a nice weight and finish. Essentially it sets itself once the batteries are inserted. The clock automatically sets the time and date, and will reset itself several times a day. Should you need to it is possible to set all the functions manually.

    The alarm is a doddle to set, one switch, one button. There is also a temperature readout, in either celsius or fahrenheit, which is useful if you want to know why you are cold.

    Cracking little clock, Can't fault it. Will just have to order another.

    PS-----------RRP on the High Street. £18.

    Nice chunky design and very well made, not too flimsy. Packs up quite small so is good for carrying in your backpack when travelling. I like the blue backlight too, makes it easy to see in the dark. The radio controlled setting is great, you simply take it out of the box and remove the battery tag and it sets the time and date automatically.

    Excellent clock but has only lasted 2 years
    I have been very happy with this clock but judging by other reviews there seems to be a design fault where after a while the screen becomes very faint. Read more

    Faulty Item
    This clock was a disappointment in that the 'radio control' failed to work and the time shown was hours out even after instructions to adjust were followed. I returned the item.

    HELP
    I recently purchased one of these clocks. At first it was brilliant but appears to have gone a bit 'haywire'.
    I have mislaid the instructions. Read more

    I can now understand why there are different views on this clock concerning viewing the face of it. The first one purchased in Jan 2012 had top marks in all of the areas of viewing... Read more

    10 out of 10 for this Clock. I can't stand a clicking clock so this was the one for us. We bought TWO of them! Very Very happy sleepers.

    Not the time I was looking for
    I was prepared for the usual excitement/irritation of setting one variable only to see it skip away while other variables were being set. Read more

    Great valve for money, case is a bit plasticly and the back light needs to be brighter but suits my needs when traveling.

    Easy setup but poor backlight
    Setup was as easy as instructions said, adjusted to correct time within 10 minutes (in South Lincolnshire).

    Display is clear in daylight from virtually any angle. Read more
