Product Review (submitted on March 23, 2017):
It's a clock radio. It comes with a whole mess of features, some of which are useful (dimmer on the display; automatic DST changing), and some of which are likely useless (it tells you the temperature ... of the room you're in). It seems to work so far, but I am disappointed with it because, despite damn near every other feature being programmable at your choice, it has a soft, low alarm volume which gradually increases. I hate this. (It's an option on the alarm on my phone, but, at least on my phone, it's just the default, and you can change it.) I'm a pretty deep sleeper, and I need a loud, obnoxious noise that will jerk me into wakefulness -- not delicate tones slowly increasing. I have, in the past, slept through a clock-radio alarm -- whatever I was dreaming just incorporated the song being played, and I didn't actually get up until the DJ came on. I'm afraid that with the gradual alarm, the same thing will happen again. I imagine it would have been easy to make gradual alarm vs. loud alarm an actual SETTING, but they chose not to do that.I'm keeping it, but I'm not happy with it. - Verified Store
