This was great! I bought it for a friend who is beginning to have macular degeneration. It is big and bright and has all the important information on display. I like the remote that came with it. It makes it easier for them to operate/set in other words not tiny buttons they cannot see. The alarm features are great. It has multiple alarms you can set throughout the day for taking supplements, activities, appointments etc. I can see this being very useful for those with some mental decline. My friend was constantly asking me what time it was, what day it was and this was very helpful in helping her state of orientation. So highly recommended for the elderly or those with visual difficulties. But not just limited to that. It would be a great gift idea for anyone with kids, families easy to use and easy to see. Great gift for anyone. Read more
Many different options and a solution for numerous daily problems our loved ones have with dementia. My mother hates the clock but puts up with it because it solves daily problems and my husband was able to talk her into trying it out. She is correct it does not match the ascetics of her house but it does solve numerous problems. We are at the nothing is easy point of the disease.Once we showed her all the information she could get she lightened up. Easy to use, easy to see, easy to understand and easy to see how it makes her life closer to pre-dementia. Total recommend. Read more
The media could not be loaded. ****UPDATE**** I did end up getting a second clock (same size). I am so glad I did. I noticed that the newer clock has an additional sleep feature, one that the previous clock shown in the video does not have. Not having a sleep feature on the previous clock was not a deal breaker, but it was certainly a nice surprise to have it on the newer clock! Still would highly recommend this clock! **** I’ve had this clock for a few months now, and I love it! It has so many features, and it is easy to set up. Here is a list of why I like this clock: #1: The remote. If you want to hang the clock on the wall, you don’t have to take it down to adjust any of the features via the buttons on the back of the clock. #2: The five different display settings. You can adjust these by pressing the OK button on the remote for two seconds each time you want to change the format. The fonts are pretty big and are easy to see. The less information on the clock display, the bigger the fonts appear (see video). And if you still can’t see the display, you can press the OK button on the remote once and it will say the time and day of the week. #3: There are quite a few alarm settings on this clock. There are three pill alarms in which you can set the time and then turn the alarm on and off. There are five regular alarms which you can set to go off only once, every day, Monday through Friday, or weekends. #4: Of course there is a volume adjustment. I have mine set on six, which is loud enough for me to hear and wake me up out of a sound sleep. Level eight is quite loud for me. The settings go up to 10 which I have not tried, but I think it’s probably loud enough to wake the dead. 💀 #5: There is an auto dimming feature which you can set to low, mid or off. The display is brightest when it is turned off. If you put this in your bedroom to use as an alarm clock, you can set it to low auto dimming so the light doesn’t disturb you when you sleep. #6: There’s a “push for help” button on the remote. I’m not sure how helpful that will be unless you carry this remote with you everywhere in your house, but it is a nice feature if you can use it. There are a few minor drawbacks: #1: Since I purchased a smaller clock, it is harder to adjust the features via the remote from further away because the menu display is small. This is not an issue for me, but it may be for others. If it is an issue for you, I would buy the larger clock. #2: The color mode refers to the fonts on the display. There are only two color options: white or yellow. I prefer the white, since it makes it easier to see; however, I would have liked it if they provided more color options. 😁 I am thinking about buying the larger clock to put in my living room and keep this smaller clock in my bedroom as an alarm clock. The alarm doesn’t beep; it actually plays a musical tune. All in all, this is a great little clock to have for any age, and not just for us seniors! Read more
Great clock with fairly big days and numbers. I just received my second order today. I definitely suggest this product for us older people for easy viewing. Read more
Nice and bright display! Read more
Would buy a bigger one next time. Purchased for my parents. From across the room everything is readable except the date, which is a little small. Overall, excellent purchase. I just should have read more about the size. Read more
Bought this for my 88year old mother. She absolutely loves it! Helps her keep up with the dates/time easily! With dementia this is wonderful for her and easy to read! It sits across the room from her sofa (about 8 ft away) and she can easily read it. It is also much nicer and better made than I expected. Looks very nice! I would buy again, recommend! Read more
This alarm clock has so many useful features. There are multiple alarms as well as separate "pill reminders". I especially appreciate the "weekday only" function for the alarms. I use this for my intellectually disabled teen to help her with her daily routines. The functions are relatively easy to set and change and if it ever comes unplugged: the clock memory preserves the time, date, and all of your set alarms. My daughter loves the date and weather display. Read more
