Just what I was looking for!! September 24, 2009 R. Proctor 40 out of 41 found this review helpful
Trying to find a reliable, easy to use, inexpensive, alarm clock for the wife. She wanted one that sets itself and had a battery back-up. I wanted one that would wake her up. Found this one at K-mart and spent 30 mins playing with it over by the televisions (needed a power source). This radio alarm clock is perfect for what I need. This being my first review, I"ll just point out the things that made me buy it.
1. Nice soft blue color, 2 setting...low you can just make out and high is clearly visible
2. Battery back up (even came with batteries) easy to find AA"s
3. Plug in in and it sets itself (all you have to do is set the time zone) has a switch for Daylight Savings Time.
4. Dual alarm (his and her) or in this case days and midnights...set it and forget it. You don't have to remember to set it everyday.
5. If the power goes out the alarm goes into kind of a sleep mode. It beeps to warn you of the power failure and according to the instructions, remembers the alarm settings and goes off without it being plugged in (not tested yet)
6. The alarm starts off kinda like any other alarm but then gets progressively louder (can't see anyone sleeping through this one)
7. Playing with the tuner, looks like one of those old fashion, spin the dial things, but it shows a digital read on the display (kinda cool but it's a cheap radio folks and sounds like one)
8. The snooze is adjustable from 1 to 30 mins.
9. Last but not least, the alarm set time is displayed on the lower right, so if your the nervous type, you can double check to make sure the alarm is where you want it to be. All for around 20 bucks...and that"s all I have to say about that.....
Great Senior clock - BIG Buttons October 17, 2009 Charles L. Miller 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This clock is for someone who doesn't want to fumble looking for little buttons. It's alarm starts low and builds. Who wants to be blasted out of bed?? Great value & incl's 2 light levels.
Easy to read alarm clock January 31, 2010 J. Murray If you are looking for an alarm clock with large, easy to read time then this is the one for you. I wear glasses and always had a hard time reading the time until this alarm clock arrived.
Update ---- loved the clock but it broke after less than three months use. Buttons are junk.
RCA RC46 AM/FM Alarm Clock Radio with Large Blue LED February 19, 2010 Nancy Payne (Middle Georgia) RCA RC46 AM/FM Alarm Clock Radio with Large Blue LED Display (Black)
This is one of the best alarm clocks we've bought. I am going to buy another one for my other son. We love the large display and especially the dual alarms it has so you can set one for the weekdays and one for church on Sunday. Also, the backup battery is always nice to have in case the electric goes off.
Great clock March 3, 2010 Michael B. Yohn (Pennsylvania) Got this clock to replace an older, bulky CD clock radio. This clock was easy to set up and use. Works great. Love the extra display to show the alarm times. Only thing I dislike about it so far is setting the alarm. As far as I can tell, you have to hold down the button to "scroll" through every minute of each hour. The longer you hold it, the faster it goes, but this is still ridiculous.
