This thing has had water spilled on it and has been accidentally knocked off my desk more times than I can count and it still keeps on working.

Start the day on time with the help of this basic digital alarm clock. From Equity by La Crosse, the electric clock features black plastic casing with silver function buttons on top. The clock displays the time in .7-inch high red LED digits. To distinguish between morning and evening hours, a PM indicator light is provided. Another indicator light denotes whether or not the alarm is on. For reluctant risers, the clock offers a repeating 9-minute snooze function to silence the loud beep of the alarm. The clock plugs in to any grounded outlet to run on AC power. In the event of a power outage or relocation, the clock takes one separately purchased 9-volt battery for power back-up. The clock measures 4-1/2 inches wide by 2-3/4 inches deep by 2 inches high.

This alarm clock is the worst I've owned in my life, it gains around 5-8 minutes a day so you can imagine by the end of the week it will display almost an hour more than the actual time. Keep away from this thing......

Timex T715B Dual Alarm Clock Radio (Black) Review

Timex T715B Dual Alarm Clock Radio (Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is the best Clock Radio that I have ever bought. It is very good quality. The clock is made well. When the power goes out it automatically sets itself for the correct time and it maintains your wake up time as well, no more resetting everything, which is terrific because we live in North Carolina where there are a lot of storms that knock out power.
It is simple to use and offers a selection for lighter or brighter on the clock numbers, which is also a great feature. Its not a high end stereo system, but I was'nt expecting it to be. The sound is good and definitely good enough to wake me up in the mornings.
Cant say enough great things about it, this is definitely the one to buy, well worth the price.

Chass World Sync Time Zone Map Alarm Clock 00193 Review

I wanted a desk clock that would display time from different time zones and this clock fits the bill! It is good if you have love ones serving abroad or if you travel overseas a lot. It has a pretty good database including Kabul, Afghanistan which is an additional 10 hours and 30 minutes ahead of CST. It can sync with the major radio sync or "atomic clocks" around the world. Setting both zones it will take some time to get used. The main time is easy to read as is the temperature. The second time zone is a little smaller but will do. It is pretty compact and can be used as a travel clock. I've had this for a couple of weeks now and I've been happy with the product.

Infinity Instruments Retro Spotlight Alarm Clock - in your choice of colors Review

Infinity Instruments Retro Spotlight Alarm Clock - in your choice of colors
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a cute little clock. Looks great in my guest room.
Description says it requires one AA battery, but it requires three. Handling Instructions say "Change the battery once a year ..." - I will be (pleasantly) surprised if they last that long.
To set the alarm or clock, one has to remove the cover on the back of the clock, which is okay to set the time, but which makes setting the alarm a pain. I don't care because I'm putting this clock in a guest room and don't expect guests to want to set the alarm. If it turns out that lots of guests DO want to set the alarm, I'll buy a different clock.
The light can not be turned on - it comes on when you push the little button and goes off when you let go.
The bottom of the clock is slightly warped so the clock wobbles a little - won't sit completely flat.
I'm glad I didn't pay any more than I did for this clock ($16.97) because it is worth about $8 -$10, maybe less, in my opinion.

Timex T736S Dual Alarm Clock Radio with Time Projector and Jumbo Display Review

Timex T736S Dual Alarm Clock Radio with Time Projector and Jumbo Display
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Four and a Half ACCURATE Stars! This dual-alarm clock, with battery backup and manually-tuned AM/FM radio, sets the time "out of the box" when you plug it in: for the eastern time zone: alarming perfectly in sync with my iPhone. It has large red numbers/letters that can be seen, at night, from across the room. The AM/FM radio has very good sound for music or talk radio. The dual alarms allow for 'everyday', 'weekdays only' and 'weekends only' alarms using buzzer, radio, or "soothing sounds". The time projector can be manually rotated thru 90 degrees for wall or ceiling projection of large red 12 inch to 24 inch numbers; and the display can be inverted, focused, or turned off completely. Wake up at night and see the time on the ceiling: no eyeglasses needed for me! If they had added a 'weather' radio band that my other clock radio has, and an AM/FM remote, it would have earned this clock radio the extra half-star rating star, but that 'other' clock radio doesn't project time on the ceiling and it blinks after a power outage while the Timex automatically resets the time. I like this Timex T736S very much and it's now 'pulling duty' in a primary bedroom. Highly Recommended! Four and a half PRECISE Stars! (Rating upgraded on 8/19/2011 after a power outage that proved it's auto reset value.)

Timex T155LX Expedition Bell and Nature Sounds Alarm Clock Review

Timex T155LX Expedition Bell and Nature Sounds Alarm Clock
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
this is a fine alarm clock. it has funny nature sounds and alarms (my favorite is the babbling brook). I think the intention is that you put on the nature sound before going to sleep and it will help you sleep. great idea if the ocean sound, for example, didn't remind me of flushing toilets. I mean the sounds are muffled, like they are inside a box. the nature sound loops are short (about ten seconds then it repeats not too noticeably). the forest sound is mostly a bunch of crickets and the occasional hooting owl (if you into that sort of thing). anyways, this is a fine alarm clock in an attractive green package, but if you want to sleep to the sounds of nature, but one of those CDs, or move to the country.

Sony ICF-C212 FM/AM Clock Radio with Full Power Back-up (Black) Review

Sony ICF-C212 FM/AM Clock Radio with Full Power Back-up (Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I got as much or more than I was expecting with this Sony clock radio. Yes, the controls are a bit cramped. Yes, the sliding "on-off-alarm" switch is a bit difficult to navigate in the dark. But it's a good looking little thing, and it had the battery back-up I was looking for, creating less chance of being late for work in the event of a power failure.
So how did I get "more" than I was expecting? This thing sounds much better than the 20 year old GE clock radio it's replacing, and it comes with an FM antenna (a small wire dangling off the back). FM and AM reception were both better than with my trusty GE, who's only drawback was that the battery only saved the time during a power failure, but wouldn't set off the alarm. A great Amazon.com price on a great little Sony clock radio!

HH Scott SCR120 E-Z Set TM Clock Radio (Silver Metallic)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If you're just looking for a great alarm clock, this is it! The time automatically sets as soon as it's plugged in. The function buttons are easy to use & not too small. Thankfully, the clock is smaller than it appears in the photo, it's trim & neat. The sound is clear & strong. I like the added feature of weekday/weekend alarm, I never have to turn it off. My one concern was that I like to set my clock a few minutes fast, but no problem, not only could I manually adjust the time, but when I unplugged the clock it not only had the correct time when I replugged it, it also kept the time I had adjusted it to. After you hit the snooze button the alarm light blinks to let you know that the alarm is still active and will be going off again in 9 or 10 minutes. I was searching for an alarm clock for a while, this one makes me very happy.

I love how this clock looks, I love that if I tap the top, I get a glowy blue nightlight, I love the nap button, programmable from 20 minutes to 2 hours, I love the ease of use with the buttons placement, it even has good reception for the radio.
I hate that I bought it at the beginning of April 06 and by August half the lines that made up the numbers on the face no longer worked. It is impossible to read the clock anymore. I hate that when I went to the point of sale, they no longer carry it, and when I went to RCA, they no longer even show it on their site.

Calming Blue Alarm Clock Review

Calming Blue Alarm Clock
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Purchased two of these clocks as the price was right and I liked the blue LED lighting. Within one week, one of them started losing time and digits on the display. I could no longer depend on it daily to wake me for work. Fortunately, I already had another which works fine. Trashed the other one, the hassle to return and get a refund was not worth it. This is not the first time I purchased nicely presented, reasonably priced, junk electronics items from here. In the future I will pass up similar "great deals" on reasonable priced junk electronic items. Three stars for one working, one not.

Geneva Clock Co 4537E Elgin 2.0" LED Auto Set Bedside Alarm Clock Review

Geneva Clock Co 4537E Elgin 2.0 LED Auto Set Bedside Alarm Clock
Average Reviews:

I ordered this lock to replace another electric clock tht had quit functioning. In fact it never did work very well, and was very difficult to set the time. I never was able to adjust the time to be correct SOOOOOO.....I was glad when the thing bit the dust. I didn't even wait for the new Elgin to arrive before I packed the old one in my trash can and happily waved "Bye-Bye" to it.
The Elgin arrived and I unpacked it....plugged it into the socket, set the eastern time zone and watched it set the correct time automatically. That's it, folks. My clock was up and running....as easily as anything I've ever owned. There is an up and down adjustment button to zero the time in should you need to do so.
I am very happy with this clock, with AMAZON.COM for the ease in locating it and the entire ordering process. I looked for electric clocks, zeroed in on ELGIN because I was very familiar with them for timepieces.....going WAY back. I picked the model I felt would fit my needs and ordered it. I could not be happier with the clock I now have on my bedside table. Thank you, AMAZON. I am already a repeat customer.....and will go to you for my future needs.....FIRST!!!

Philips AJ396517 Stereo CD Clock Radio Review

Philips AJ396517 Stereo CD Clock Radio
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I thought that I had found the perfect clock radio: handsome, dual alarm that is easy to set both forwards and backwards, good sound with CD... My only complaint is the readability of the display. Despite boasting a super big blue backlight for easy reading, I find the LCD display often difficult to read. To be perfect, Philips should have stuck with a good old fashioned LED. Despite this shortcoming, the AJ396517 is arguably the best CD clock radio out there.

Click Here to see more reviews about: Philips AJ396517 Stereo CD Clock Radio

The Philips AJ396517 CD AM/FM stereo digital alarm clock features a dual alarm that can be set for two different wake-up times. You have the choice of waking up to your favorite CD, radio station, or beeper melodies. When waking to a CD, the silent CD alarm begins with a preselected track that's ready to play.
The clock is quartz controlled for accuracy. Press the repeat alarm to switch off the alarm for seven minutes at a time. The 24-hour alarm reset eliminates the need to manually reset the alarm after each use by automatically resetting the alarm function for the same time on the next day. The weekend sleeper makes sure that either one or both alarm functions are switched off during the weekends.
Using the sleep and slumber feature, you can listen to music while falling asleep without the worry of having to turn off the radio. This feature plays up to 90 minutes of music and automatically shuts off. The radio PLL tuner allows you to store up to 30 FM and AM station presets.
This clock radio has a self-powered backup. In case of an interruption in power, the clock will hold the time and alarm settings for three minutes.

Sony ICF-CD832PS Psyc CD / AM / FM Stereo Clock Radio (Black) Review

Sony ICF-CD832PS Psyc CD / AM / FM Stereo Clock Radio (Black)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When you need to get up, you need to know that the alarm clock will go off and won't blink 12:00am at 9am after a power outage, or anything like that.
There is NO BATTERY BACKUP! Keep this in mind if you are using it as a bedside clock. In an office, it's fine, but it's not the wisest design having an alarm clock with no battery back up.
The only protection it has is a 60 second clock memory. So if you're power outage goes on longer than 60 seconds...don't expect to make it to work/class on time.
It looks nice though, and is an attractive clock/cd/radio... but that's about it.
