Can’t say enough about this clock. Read more

Great clock for anyone. You can set reminders for meals, meds, hygiene as well as other reminders. Originally purchased one several years ago for my dad who had dementia. My mom still loves the clock so much (even though he is gone) we got one for the living room. Has different styles and brightness levels. Very easy to set up. Perfect size allows you to see numbers clearly from across the room. Great value fast shipping. Read more

Very easy to set up. A variety of displays and colors to suit everyone. Press a button and it speaks the time and date. 😁 Display is easy to read and you can adjust the brightness to your comfort level. Offers more than most clocks. Read more

We really like this clock! Its display image and options are really nice! You can label the alarms, you can put a message on it; the little day/night and medicine-taking person icons and vivid colorful and clear display are great; it has a sleep mode, etc... AND the alarms is actually a pleasant, calming and cute melody that my father responds to merrily. The remote is easy and the button on the back pretty easy to. And it was about $30 cheaper or half the price than another one we tried. We ordered a second one for another room. And yes, it does the job very well at this point, it's so helpful, to orient my dad to full date and time, when he can't remember! And he says so too! FYI, The other clock we purchased was by Robin. It was twice the price of the MASSII clock and the screen display image had a very ugly glare, like a very old computer, very few meaningful display option; you cannot label alarm settings; the alarm sound itself is horrible, like a very-very old mechanical telephone or a bad recording of a "big-ben" alarm clock. So, we decided very quickly even before ever testing the other functions, such as the clock speaking/voiced mode, that the alarm and visual features were just too terrible for it to be worth it, especially considering that we do not need the "speaking" function at this point and if we did we still questioned whether it could even possibly make up for the really disturbing, obtrusive alarm. Lastly, the buttons to set the clock are also pretty annoying, while other cheaper brand digital clocks have easier buttons plus a very easy remote control. Good luck with your purchase choices.

This is a pretty neat clock that many people would enjoy however, it is has been especially great for a family member who is afflicted with Alzheimer's. We purchased this clock specially for the icon of a sun and moon since he has increasing trouble with reading comprehension. The icon has been very helpful in his orientation. When he gets disoriented, he almost starts to panic--this clock has been a comfort to him. Before purchasing, he would repeatedly ask me for the time and also ask "are more people awake or asleep right now?" He hasn't asked me once since we got this clock. His peace of mind is so much better now. He asked me if we can put one of these clocks in every room lol He also can still understand where it says "morning", "afternoon" and "night" though he is still struggling with the date and days of the week--though this is no fault of the clock. I also like that users can decide when they want "morning" or "night" to begin since for some people may consider 3am morning and others would consider it night. To help with his disorientation, I think we ended up setting it to say "night" whenever he should be in bed. And "day" or "morning" when most people are awake. I wish it was battery operated so we could have more flexibility in where to put it, but it is still worth it. I also thought the clock would be slightly larger but he still can understand it better than his larger one that only displays words and numbers. The sun/moon icons really are game changers for him! I hope it lasts! Read more

Nice clock. I like the multi-displays that it offers. Easy to see and dims at night. Only gripe is that the remote only works if you are 2 ft away or I would've giving it 5 stars. Read more

We bought this clock for a very senior (100+ year old) parent who was starting to have some time-of-day disorientation. Regular clocks didn't work, because he would see 5:00 and not know whether it was 5:00 in the morning or 5:00 at night. This clock reinforces the time with both text (e.g., "MORNING") and graphics (a picture of the sun). It spells everything out rather than using abbreviations that can be confusing for someone with mild dementia. The display is big and bright. We especially like the red-white-and-blue setting, because it's an attention grabber and makes it easy to locate the clock, which has helped reduce calls at 2:00 am. Programming is very simple with the included remote (BTW, another review complained that the instructions say to press the "Menu" button and there's no such button on the clock -- that's true, the menu button is on the remote, not the clock back). The clock keeps accurate time, and the battery keeps the time accurate during power outages, which is essential. The one feature I would change: If you set a reminder, it pops up on screen at the appropriate time, along with a message saying to use the remote to return to clock mode. It automatically returns to clock mode after a customizable interval, but the message sends our senior relative into a search for the remote. I wish the message said something like "The clock will reappear in 10 minutes". Bottom line: This clock has helped our senior relative maintain better day-night orientation, which has reduced calls to us in the wee hours of the morning. Worth every penny. Read more
