This clock looks nice and sounds nice , BUT, it omits way to much light in the room. It actually will cast shadows like a bright nite lite and that is on the lowest of 3 settings. Dont matter if your in projection mode or not, that just makes it even worse. Personally, I HATE it!

Bought this model clock from a none Amazon retailer. Easy to set and set up times for the two alarms. It has a sleep mode with about four settings and can play either AM-FM radio, MP3 player, AUX player or four nature sounds. Alarms can wake you with either of these options too. Has a Snooze button. Display setting tells time, Alarm time if set, and date. Why you need a need to know the month, day, year date while you sleep I don’t know.

Huge down side for me was the projection display. Since it is on the back it can only display straight up or to the rear of the clock. You can flip the display and adjust the focus. Time and alarm setting if wanted are displayed in nice light blue. I sorta wanted to have the display shown on the ceiling in the center of the bed an since the clock sits on a night table I have to turn over to look at the clock. Sorta defeats the purpose of the projection display. But no big deal. I like the fact that you can play a MP3 player or CD player with it for a sleep mode or alarm wakeup.

The volume button on mine didn’t work properly. If it had I would have loved it… alas. :/

Purchased the item as a gift. Exactly what the receiver wanted. Delivered on time.

great little clock with many sound choices. Definitely worth the money and better than the average alarm clock.

This is a neat little machine. The only thing I would change is that you can’t go to sleep to one sound and wake up to another, because the alarm will be set to use the last sound that was activated. I also had an issue with the time projector not working. What it projects on the wall didn’t even resemble a time, and I fiddled with the focus and the angle all in vain. I read the instruction manual, and couldn’t see anything I was missing, so I guess I just got a defective product. I didn’t care about that feature, though, so no problem for me.

Great Clock
but the time projection light is too bright,
It is a bright Blue. Needs to have a dimmer switch on it for the projection part.
