Moshi IVR001 Voice Control Alarm Clock Review

Moshi IVR001 Voice Control Alarm Clock
Average Reviews:

Maybe I have a different version of this clock than other reviewers BUT
- you CAN change the volume, the buttons are on the back and there are three settings
- you CAN change the night light from single to multi so you don't have to have a disco show
- yes, there are only three sleep sounds but they last 15 minutes, not 5. Granted they are not the best, but this clock was really not made for that and would probably do best by eliminating that feature
until it is fine tuned.
- you have to speak the commands exactly as directed or you will get errors. For example, you have to say "hello Moshi" and then "set alarm" NOT "set the alarm" or it will not understand the command and do nothing.
- I would like the option of setting the nightlight to a preferred color however.
- the nightlight colors are a little too bright, but gorgeous!
- if you don't have the nightlight on in the dark, you can't see the clock. How could this have been overlooked when making this clock?
- It is made of plastic but I don't think it looks cheap. I have never had a glass alarm clock before so why should this one be different?
- it is made in such a way that if you have cats, like I do, walking around your nightstand they cannot change the settings or turn your radio on jolting you awake. This is priceless to me!
You do not have to listen to a full explanation every time you set it unless you pause too long after saying giving a command. If you wait too long, it will give you an explanation. One in a while it will confuse a command or a time set but it is rare for me. In fact, I make far more errors on clocks I have had to manually set than this clock has.
If you plug it in the wall, the unit operates by voice command but the alarm will shut off by touch or voice. If you install batteries, you can operate everything manually from the back buttons but it is not practical because they are very small. You can turn the alarm clock off by touch regardless if it running on batteries or is plugged in.
Do I think there is room for improvement? Of course!
Is it worth the $49.95? For me it was!

iTalk Clock with Voice Command Response LED Alarm Clock Review

I am very happy with this product. As I was saying in the video, I compared the reviews to the Moshi Talking Alarm Clock (that you can also find on Amazon) but so many people were unhappy with the forced disco night light. The iTalk, on the other hand, is just your run of the mill alarm clock with the added function of voice commands which is all I wanted. I really like being told "Good morning, it is 8:30 AM" instead of being bombarded with an annoying sound but if you want the nerve wrecking sounds, you can still have it. Unlike one of the other reviewers, I had no trouble at all getting iTalk to understand what I'm saying as you can clearly hear in the video.
I would recommend this product to anyone lacking dexterity such as senior citizens and I would also recommend this product to anyone who just likes neat toys and/or being lazy.
The one feature I would like to see is the ability to disable the alarm with your voice if you wake up before the alarm sounds. As of right now, the only way to do that is to manually flip the switch in the back. Although, if you /wait/ until the alarm sounds, you can easily just say "Alarm Off".I hope my video helps you make an informed purchase.
