Sharp Projection Alarm Clock with Soothing Nature Sounds, SPC585

I didn't buy this specifically for the time projecting in the ceiling, but that is quite handy. Otherwise, this is an excellent click to back up alarms on the smart phone that sometimes mysteriously get turned down in volume for seemingly unknowable reasons.

Sharp always has good products I last clock stoped projecting after many years also a sharp it has a larger display then the last and was much cheaper on Walmart .com

The clock is very easy to set and the projector is great. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because the sound machine part doesn't sound realistic in some cases not even recognizable. But its worth the buy for The projector alone if you're an insomniac that watches the clock.

The alarm and sleep sound options are great. I like the design and size as well. The projector is awesome and why I purchased in the first place. The power cord input is very very sensitive. Too sensitive. Any slightest touch to it and everything has to be reset. Luckily it's pretty stationary and doesn't bump much. If you have a smaller area and the back of the clock touches it, the alarm will not work because the time will no longer be accurate.

The sound options are god awful. There are only two that are constant (like white noise) and they are both so abrasive. We have been using this for three nights and our toddler has been waking up all night long since then. I finally turned off the sound and realized how grating it is, plus it doesn't actually seem to block outside sound. I realize most people are probably not buying this only for the sound machine feature but if you are, please pick something else.

The directions are clear on this item, however, when you follow them, exactly, you are unable to set the time to a 12 hour clock or either one of the alarms. It does not require assembly. Also it does project the time up onto the ceiling as it claims to do, but I will have to return it because it cannot be set.

The first one's sound button failed to turn the sound machine on and off. So we returned it and bought another one. That one's projector for stopped working, so we couldn't see the time projected on the ceiling. We returned that one too and are buying another brand.

Very low quality, cheaply made, projector will not stay on even after following directions. Instead it changes the time to military time. Absolute garbage. I'm returning it ...wow. major junk

I bought four of these items. Three of them work great, but one is broken. It's disappointing to have three that function well and one that doesn't, as it takes away the convenience of not having to go into the store to buy it or return it.

So I like the sound machine feature and the ability to alter the dimness. However, if the cord or clock moves or is displaced in any manner then the time resets. I can't count on this as a clock and just use it for the sound machine. I don't want to oversleep
