RCA RC205 Dual Wake Clock Radio

I placed all 5 stars because for the price it is a great buy. You cannot expect great fidelity sound or other expensive ideas. What I got was a small clock/alarm radio for my kitchen counter to listen to music while I cook, mop floors, etc. The red numbers allow for ease of seeing the time across rooms. It is cheaply made, but performs all functions well.

This clock radio has everything that I want. Previous clock radios had manual tuning which tends to loose the station that I want to wake up to, not a problem with digital tuning. Also, for me, a red display is a requirement; I have found out that other colors are too bright and bother me when I am trying to sleep, I have not such problem with a red display.

I needed a replacement radio.Wanted FM favorite station. After tuning to that station, I tried AM; NYC station I never expected to get. To my surprise, the city station comes in loud and clear. most happy with my purchase. Plus clock, battery backup. alarm, all for $12.99.

This clock radio is one of a few on this website that is dirt cheap and does both the radio and has a clock. I didn't want anything fancy and expensive. I just wanted something small and inexpensive that works. So far so good. This item is so light weight it almost feels as though it is hollow which really confirms its cheapness and lack of quality...but hey...for $10.00 that is what to expect.

I didn't find this alarm clock hard to setup at all. Also it gets good reception something my other clock did not have. Over all very pleased with product.

We bought it to listen to talk radio. It does the job and was inexpensive; so we are satisfied. But if you want quality sound, this is not the radio for you.

This radio is very small which would make it good for travel. The sound is good, reception good. The main problem I see is that the tiny black control/setting buttons are lettered in black. Very hard to read.

The snooze button is long and the rest are really small. I'm sure it's no fun waking up trying to find the shut off button because it's so tiny. I am returning mine. Other than the tiny size and really tiny buttons - sound is good as is reception and time is accurate. If you want a really small alarm clock radio and don't mind the small buttons - this clocks for you.

The product was easy to set up, the buttons are tiny but they worked according to instructions. I didnt expect the unit to be so small. I should have measured it on my table, my glasses dont fit on top . The AM antennae did not work. I could not get any Am station. I like to wake up to an AM station. The other thing I was not told about was that when the alarm goes off (on radio) the radio turns on and then the volume continues to get louder and louder until you can find the right button to turn it down or off. This means I have to turn on the light to find the right button.

When the clock radio arrived, I was surprised to see how small it was. The buttons were practically un-readable, and the functions were all tied in to a few buttons, which would make it easy to make a mistake, especially at night or early a.m. when you are drowsy. I sent it back very quickly!
