Amazing product. The Product is amazing as it has a big display where you can see the numbers. When I turn off the lights the display automatically knows to turn on a dim almost glow in the dark light. The snooze button is back and has a nice click feel to it. On top of that the alarm clock works on two AAA batteries and the third battery is back up. The sound of the alarm is very impressive as it starts with one beep then it turns into two beeps. After that it turns into three beeps and then it continuously makes loud noise until you wake up. One thing I hate about alarm clocks is setting them up. My old RCA I bought 10 years ago as a painter set up. This one is very easy as you have a master selector switch and then that controls the exact button and function. If you’d like to set the alarm you switch to alarm and then you can change the alarm Siri simple and took me 30 seconds to set it up. The added benefit is that it displays the temperature and it also displays the alarm time in the upper right hand corner and even the date it’s a very multi use clock and very well priced at $10 I will be buying another few for family and friends.

I love this clock radio alarm clock. It has a small footprint and easy to set up. It is nice to see the time at night and know how much sleep you still have! Read more
Way to bright, the snooze does not work well. you should be able to hit the button and the music or sound go off, it does not. you have to pick how long you want to snooze. At this point you are awake. Read more
This review is for the alarm clock, not the clock radio. The clock-radio that runs on AC has a battery for backup. But my review is for the alarm clock that runs on battery, not AC. Therefore , the third AAA battery in the alarm clock is not for backup, it's for lighting the display. When you hit the snooze button, the display comes on brightly. When you change one of the rear switches from Sensor Off to Sensor On, the display will stay on nicely dimly, if it's dark enough. My clock is still new, so I can't say how long the third battery will last if you keep the clock switched to Sensor On. All I can say for sure is that it's a very nice display. I put this on my Ham Radio station and set the clock for Greenwich Mean Time, which is an abbreviation in Sumerian for "UTC." I never set the alarm, because I'm afraid it will wake me up. Update: Dropping my rating from 5 stars to 4 stars. The clock runs fast, picks up a second every day. So every few days, I set it slow a few seconds. Update: A half a year later. Strange. Did I make a mistake? Now the clock loses a second every week or so. Read more
Very good Read more
VERY quiet alarm with no volume control. Nice, big, easy to read display. Displays the date numerically 5/16" high, 12 or 24 hr option time with big 1 1/2 inch numbers, alarm time (only one setting, not a dual alarm), and temp with option of °F or °C. Be sure to save the instructions, slightly tricky to set up the first time. Nice for a cheap clock, but very quiet alarm so probably would not wake you up unless you are a light sleeper. Works okay for me. The light sensor did not work on mine (can press the snooze button on the top to light up the display at night). The alarm only sounds 1 time for 1 minute (unless you hit the snooze button) and then will sound the next day at the set time unless the alarm is turned off. Uses 3 AAA batteries. Generally, I like the clock but only rated it as 3 stars because it is made in China and I think the alarm is much too quiet for most people. Read more
This alarm clock has some issues. We have had two issues with this Alarm clock. The first is that I like to use the radio as the alarm instead of the buzzer option. This is great when it works. For some reason, without notice, the alarm will not go off when set to radio. The alarm light (dot) will be illuminated showing it is ready but when it is time for the alarm to go off the light is out/off even though the setting button/tab is still set in the correct position. It is an intermittent thing, so I do not know why it only happens every 4th or 5th time it needs to alarm. Luckily, it has a second alarm setting that you can set just in case the first alarm (if set to radio) decides to not work as a backup (make sure you set this to buzzer though). With that being said, just don't trust the radio option as the alarm. The second issue I have with this is the brightness of the display. It is pretty bright. Once your eyes adjust to the darkness of the bedroom, it really stands out. It was so bright, we made shadow puppets on the wall with how bright it was. We had some extra tinting film, so we covered the display to block/lower the brightness. This really helped. So, just be aware that this may be too bright for some. Read more
Radio itself is small with easy to read numbers at night. Radio part is loud and clear. USB port is nice to have to charge a cell phone at night. Eliminates an additional cord plugged into an outlet. Read more
