if it's possible to love an alarm clock, this is the one to love. wife and i use it to wake up at different times - beats old clock which had me resetting alarm for her once i got up - needless to say, forgetting once was enough to drive me to search out a dual alarm clock, and Sony makes it easy with quality and easy to program features.
I took it out of the box and set it up without even reading the directions. Easy Easy to use. It woke me up on time the next morning so I am happy.
Bought this product in late July, 2008, and now in late June, 2009, theLED display no longer works with the unit plugged into an outlet.
This little clock has a dual alarm feature, which is easy to set and convenient to use. My favorite part, and the reason I bought it, is that it resets itself whenever the power goes out; and I can just plug and go, no need to set it. My clock is set with the old standard start and end dates and this clock doesn't know that, so I have to spend an entire week with the clock time set an hour off. The snooze button can be pushed multiple times to increase snooze time. Not a big deal to suffer once in a long while. The brightness level can be adjusted. All of it is very intuitive. The only problem I have with that feature right now is when they moved the day Daylight Savings Time starts and ends.
The alarm has a buzzer or radio option. The radio is as good as any radio clock I've ever owned. I can adjust the time and try and remember to adjust it again at the end of the week or else just try and remember to adjust it in my head. For the price and all its nifty features, it is worth it.
I should have bought this years ago. My only "complaint" would be that the illumination (even at the higher setting) is hard for me to see during the day when I want tao glance at the clock (it's just fine when I'm in bed looking at it). You can set it to loud or soft.
This clock radio allows me to set the 2 wake up times, and choose each night which I will use. The radio. I have 2 different wake-up times during the week, and have always altered my wake time every evening.
I chose soft, and it's a gentle chirping noise, that wakes me up but doesn't make me think the house is on fire. When I choose, it briefly shows me the time it will wake me up - no chance of mistakes. And the best part is the alarm.
I've never tried it - not interested. And the price point is great.
