HoMedics SoundSpa AM/FM Clock Radio Review

Unless you can sleep with bright lights, don't care about the correct time, and are not picky about the sound quality, I would NOT recommend this product. I contacted customer service because of the projection time showing differently than the main screen time and they were pretty prompt to reply but they said that it was a problem with MY electric! Who ever heard of that? They said that I would just have to unplug it whenever that happens and then plug it back in and reset the current time and alarm time. I've had this for about 6 months and I've had to reset it about 12 times. Quite ridiculous considering the amount that this product costs.

Pros:
Makes a good night light if you're someone who needs a brightly lit room.
I like that the numbers are blue instead of the normal red.

Cons:
Screen is too bright
Nature sounds sound unnatural (for example the waterfall sounds more like white noise.)
Nature sounds sound like a broken record (they are just a few seconds long and just play over and over again.)
Projection clock usually shows random numbers
Freezes up a lot where you have to unplug it to reset it.
Radio quality isn't that great.

Overall I would NOT recommend this product. I'm kicking myself for not taking this back to the store I bought it from while I still could. I thought HoMedics was a good brand but now I don't think I will ever purchase anything from them again.

Gpx CC319B CD Clock Radio with Dual Alarm Review

I received this radio five days ago.I needed a decent clock radio that played cds, had a repeat button, and was unobtrusive enough to be on the nightstand.When the radio showed up there were no instructions in the box, which I figured was okay since it's just a clock radio.After I got it plugged in and the time set, I tried to play a cd.The power button wouldn't turn it on.With no instructions I felt stupid not being able to figure it out.I left it plugged in over night and the alarm worked fine on the morning.The next night I tried the power button again and was able to play a cd all night to help me sleep.The cd player makes a whirring noise that was distracting.Since my sleep cds are mostly white noise the extra noise was annoying.I think if it was music it might not have been so noticeable.The next night I was all set to play a cd at bedtime and, again, no power.That was Thursday night and it's now Sunday and, with the exception of the clock and alarm, there hasn't been power since the second night.I don't hear any short so I think it's just a bad machine, maybe too cheap.I'm returning it tomorrow.

Sharp SPC309C LCD Backlight Alarm Clock (Silver) Review

This clock looks good and has a nice feature set, but while it may make a nice travel clock (if your cell phone won't do) it's really not suitable for regular use.

* While the time is displayed in nice large numbers, the contrast is low and the display is hard to read in all but the brightest light. The display is set comparatively deep within the bezel and tends to chop off the right side of the last seconds digit, unless you view it fairly straight on. The date and temp are small, and can only be read from fairly close up.

* As others have noted, you can't read the display if you are looking up at it, as when it's on your bed's headboard. You have to sit up a bit, or twist the clock.

* The clock is smaller than it may look from the picture, and the base is narrow. It's much too easy to knock it over when pushing the backlight/snooze button.

* Unlike many alarm clocks, there's no button to push to turn off the alarm and leave it armed for tomorrow: You have to fiddle with a small slide switch each and every night and each every morning.

Sony ICF-CD815 AM/FM Stereo CD Clock Radio with Dual Alarm Review

The old clock radio finally died and my husband and I thought it would be nice to have a CD player in the bedroom to listen to audio books in bed now and then (yes, I know, but it depends on the book!!).We've found the sound quality on such an inexpensive item to be extremely good, it's easy to tune the radio in and we like the huge time display - I can even see it without my glasses at night!!So far, it's awakened us at our ridiculously early get up time during the week without fail.No complaints - very happy with this clock/radio/CD player.
