While I’m not “elderly,” having this clock near my bed has prevented panicked moments of me thinking that I need to get up to go to work on a Saturday morning! 🤭 I love how the weekday is shown and the phases (morning, afternoon, etc.) of each day are shown, as well. The clock also has other neat features, too! I bought another one for my reading room where I may doze off at times. Read more

Very easy to set up just turn it on and follow the directions. At any given time I can look up and like the idea of being able to see the time of day or night...with a push of a button it will speak the time, day etc. I hung my clock on the wall and you can adjust the brightness of the clock so it won't be so bright at night. I will not using these functions but it is capable of setting alarms, birthdays, personal medication time etc. I also think it would also be nice to use at the bedside, living room, kitchen etc. Everything you would like to program into the clock can be locked so you don't loose what you programmed by pushing odd buttons by mistake. I've been so busy therefore I haven't had the time to check for battery usage which would be nice if there's a power outage (don't see battery slots)...yet though I do see underneath a slot for what looks like for a micro disc and a usb charger??.... when time allows I'll come back later to comment...as of right now I just wanted a simple functional modern looking clock that was large and visible enough to look up at during the night and go right back to sleep without moving around to much to focus in on the size of the numbers of the displayed time. This clock does that for me and then some! I would definitely recommend for someone who has a little trouble keeping up with the time of day, a little trouble seeing and hearing. It does show the date, time month and year and if it's morning, afternoon, evening, night or am. It also has military time if you like. I think it would be a great purchase for a gift to someone also. You can't go wrong with this one. Read more

I love the 2020 Robin clock! It costs a little more than other digital day clocks, but you get a lot of features for the money. The display is great and the Robin is the only day clock I could find that didn't have all the screen text in upper case letters, which makes the Robin easier to read at a distance. The brightness is fully adjustable and the auto dimming level can also be adjusted, as well as allowing you to change the dimming start and end times. I found this clock very easy to set up because of the screen prompts and the buttons along the side. I liked that it adjusted for Daylight Saving Time automatically. Some day clocks require manual adjustment for DST. I have issues with most digital clocks gaining or losing time since they don't depend on the 60 cycle AC power. Instead they use a transformer and rectifier to convert the high voltage AC to low voltage DC which causes them to lose the ability to sync to the 60 Hz power line frequency. I checked my clock and it has kept the exact time for over a month. Way better than the last digital clock I bought! There are issues with this clock that other reviewers have reported that have not been addressed. I received my clock on October 20 and a reviewer from January 20, nine months ago, raised the issue where between 12:01 and 12:59 PM the display shows PM but announces "The time is 12:xx AM". Another reviewer mentioned that the talking clock feature announces times one minute ahead at the beginning of the hour, so 3:00 PM is announced as 3:01 PM, and I verified this has not been fixed in the 2020 Robin clock. *2024 UPDATE* I purchased a 2024 Robin clock and the above issues have been resolved. However, the display on the new clock does not have the sharp contrast of the older model. I tried swapping the display from a new clock with the older model and found the issue is with the circuitry in the new model and not the actual display. Something changed in the clock to made the display worse. Since I bought the clock for the visual display I can live with the audio issues and poor sound quality. If they resolved these issues I would buy a second one for my office and give the Robin clock a 5-star review. Read more
