1.0 out of 5 stars Don't let its good looks deceive you!, 25 April 2006
By S. Hammond "Steve" (Wickfrod, Essex, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This was bought as a present for me for my birthday. It has impressive looks, and specification, but if you want to use it's alarm clock function, then FORGET IT!!
When waking up to Dab for instance, radio comes on pleasantly quietly. Fine!...then the volume steps up slightly, Still ok!...then it steps up again, then again...WWWHOOOAAAAA!!!
If you think you are going to get woken up gently, think again! Probably more likely it will have you soiling your bed with fright!!
Looks like this is the norm judging by other reviewers on here, and from Intempo's helpline.
I cannot seriously believe they have marketed this item as an alarm clock, with the actual alarm being it's one serious flaw, a very very unacceptable flaw at that.
I was so sure that this in no way could be a designed feature of the clock, that I returned my first unit...then was absolutely sickened to find out the replacement was exactly the same....then thats when my further research proved that this WAS the norm!!! utterly unbelievable!!!!! This second one is now going back, and I will look for something similar from a different manufacturer...trouble is, there's not a lot of these about!! The other thing that appealed to me was that apparently this was made in England (Manchester), seems the theory is right that we can't make anything here in the U.K.!!
Avoid this if you are looking for an alarm clock!!!
Sickening!

1.0 out of 5 stars Very poor design, 26 April 2006
By Neil Weightman (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This unit works OK in most respects, although I have had to reset it a couple of times and the switching between CD, FM and DAB is a little slow.

The serious design fault is with the alarm, however. It is easy enough to set, but when the alarm comes on the volume progressively increases until it is at maximum. Grabbing the remote control and fumbling sleepily with the volume buttons brings the the volume down, *but* as soon as you give up the struggle it rockets back up to maximum. Eventually this stops and you can get the volume to a reasonable level, but you can forget about a relaxing start to the day.

That's when the alarm is set on the radio - using the "beep" you just get an ear-piercing klaxon until you can turn the unit off.

I contacted the manufacturer about this (hoping for a workaround), but heard nothing from them.

I'd strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

1.0 out of 5 stars GREAT cd/radio - NOT GREAT ALARM!!, 15 Oct 2006
By Teterie (London, UK) - See all my reviews
I bought this as a treat for myself a few months ago, the cd and remote control a selling point. BUT THE ALARM IS APPALLING!! After being kept awake longer than desirable by the glare of the time (dimming does not really make much difference here), you will be 'jolted' awake each morning (so will everyone else in your house). Trying to reduce the volume is a losing battle, it just keeps on increasing. Tried switching it off and back on, but this did not always work either. The last straw was when the alarm failed to come on at all. It looks nice enough and works ok as just a cd/radio, but for the price especially, I expected much better quality. Use it as an alarm at your peril. I am relieved though, that my experience is not unique, I thought I had bought a faulty one. I have returned it, and no questions were asked when I gave the reason (not even checked to see it was a valid reason....). Intend to buy one manufactured by BUSH; well-what have I got to lose?!
