Customer Reviews
Well...it's ok I guess

The overall features are nice and the form factor is small allowing it to fit nicely on a nightstand. The TV band coverage only goes to channel 13, so you're limited there. If you can get the "wire" antenna positioned well, the reception is decent...as decent as you can get from a "dial" tuner rather than a digital tuner. The weather band comes in nicely and has helped me out a number of times from being drenched from an afternoon rainstorm by listening to the forecast.
Once again, overall nice, with many quirks, but as an alarm clock it does its job. Yes the dials, buttons, dial positions, and sound could be improved.
Here's the deal: If you can get this cheap...say for under 15 dollars, then in my opinion, the cost to value ratio is in your favor. You get a radio, alarm clock, tv sound, and weather for your money. Not bad. I bought this in January of 2000 and it's still on and working fine.
Poor design = annoying to use

I really liked this clock at first, but then I discovered that their placement of controls was really poor. They've got a volume wheel on the left and a tuning wheel on the right. Not only are these easy to confuse (and the tuning is really difficult), but I find I bump them all the time while holding the clock, which I have to do in order to keep the clock from sliding away from me when I hit one of the buttons on the front.
In the future, I'll look for a clock with all frequently-accessed buttons on the top where that won't be a problem.
Sexy looks, plane tunes.

It looks really cool. Display is somewhat cirved up, so it may be a little bit inconvenient to see from below (that is, from your bed). Tuning is difficult, so I keep the same station all the time. TV band is impossible to tune in, at least in my neighborhood. Display is very beautiful. It is so bright that I usually keep it face off in the night. I would give six stars for the looks, but the radio is a bit disappointing. You can find a clock with digital tuning for the price.

I bought this clock fully intending to name it Murray but upon opening the box I realized that this alarm clock was definatly not a Murray, it was more like a Monique or Dannile. I settled on the name Betty. Betty is an excellent alarm clock. Reliable, Smooth and Professional. With a contemporary look this alarm clock really excells in all aspects of waking. I highly recommend this fine product.
