Sony Non-CD Clock Radio, Black

I needed a clock that fit in a small space. This one is perfect. You can change how bright the numbers are. The sound quality of the radio is fine for a bedroom clock radio. All the settings on the radio are in black, so I usually need a little extra light from a flashlight, but that gives it a sleek look. Once I 'learned' the buttons, I have not had to touch them. I am pleased with the clock!

I got this alarm clock for Christmas and it is great! Very sleek and modern, amazing quality, back of battery for when the power goes out and a great radio built in! The brightness is adjustable for those early mornings and the time is set to your own time zones! Ten out of ten would recommend!

Having had one of these sitting on my bedside table for the last 30 years, I decided to buy my daughters one each when in Singapore recently, but I can't for the life of me work out how to have it on 12 hour clock instead of 24 hour. If anyone can help iId appreciate the advice!

The alarm clock looks very nice and it works pretty well. The speaker sounds not very good (but ok for 20$). The main point is that the britheness is too hi, even if you adjust it to the lowest, it is still too bright. I need to turn it every night before I sleep.

i was considering an old model which showed up in the movie, the matrix, which Neo has. but it's a little bit too big on the bed side table. when i found this on sony online store, i thought i should give it a try. it's a modern design, compact, simple, beautiful, the best feather is the alarm, when it sets off, it starts very gently, and slightly increases volume and frequency, so you can wake up in ease and not get startled, unlike any other alarm which can give you a heart attack. if the radio is digitally tuned, it would be perfect

I purchased this to replace an existing alarm clock that was going out. There are a few issues to deal with, for example; the buttons are very small, the clock is a little (akward) tricky to set (you will have to check the manual) and the buzzer part of the alarm is a waste. The buzzer was way too light to wake anyone up. I can't say I wouldn't recommend this to others, I would just caution them that the programming, etc is a little quirky.

I like the sound of the radio. Most alarm clocks have horrible speakers, they sound like transistor radios from the days of old. This one sounds great. But...the control buttons for everything (clock, radio, alarm) are very tiny and awkwardly positioned. Very difficult to maneuver around the layout of the buttons in the daylight, so there's no way I could set it or check it in the dark.

This clock had all the features that I wanted for a Clock Radio Alarm, but the buttons were just too small for my 70+ year-old eyes. Turning the dial to a different station would have been difficult in the dark. I loved the concept, but it sadly did not work for me. 8-(

I owned an older Sony clock radio and the look of this new model attracted me. It has the usual Sony clock radio sound quality and probably slightly weaker radio reception than the old one and I think this product could be better if: - has a digital radio tuner and displays the channel info at the front panel as the channel window is so small (compares to the older models). - has bigger buttons as it is so difficult to turn off the alarm when just walking up. I would only recommend this product for its look only.

Upon delivery I immediately found out to my shock and dismay that the heavily promoted "No Power No Problem" feature simply does not work. Don't buy this alarm clock if (like me) you needed the battery back-up feature to maintain clock time and alarm times in the event of an interruption to the mains power. And forget about the alarm buzzer going off with the power disconnected. So shocked at this complete failure by such a reputable brand. And yes the shipped battery was a good'un plus I tried other CR2032s just in case. All other features function as designed. AM tuner better than expected. FM tuner quite good. However the projected image is impossibly faint in all but the darkest room.
