    Sangean RCR-22 AM/FM Tuning Clock Radio (White)

    • Different Buttons are strangely located,I don't know what the engineers were thinking, but the least important buttons are located where the most important buttons should be
    • top buttons are ez to find in the dark
    • Like the H201, The RCR-22 is solid as a brick, with durable buttons and superb build quality.
    • Most items are OK but the light button on high is too bright for night time and on low it is very hard to read the time
    • The only problem with that is then you can't see it during the day unless press the button to brighten it again.
    • Like the light button to turn light down at night.
    • The buttons are easy to push and easy to find, unlike my old iHome
    • Says things like "hold down the button for more than 4 seconds."
    • (I've always fumbled for the right button on my other clocks to the point where I've thrown one clock across the room just to shut it up!)
    • THE TOP RIGHT BUTTON on the face of the clock!!
    • Preset buttons make changing stations easy
    • Still trying to get use to alarm turn off, keep hitting the wrong button and getting the snooze.
    • The snooze can be silenced by ANY of the top buttons
    • To easy to push wrong button in the dark
    • I wonder how much money they could have saved if they reduced the button count to a manageable eight buttons like my old clock radio.
    • Love the digital buttons, shut off lighted dial, and nap timer.
    • I just press a button!!!Also like the dual alarms--very handy
    • The button will illuminate red to show the alarm is active.
    • The ten top panel buttons conversly are all labeled in english
    • (!) buttons and controls are placed all over the radio (even on the bottom); the most important 'power' button is tiny and badly positioned; my mother (83, Alzheimer) confuses the large 'Band' button on top with the power button for days in a row
    • Also included: a snooze button (adjustable from 5 to 20 minutes), a sleep timer to let you fall asleep listening to the radio, and a "nap" timer which will sound an alarm after a set amount of time (adjustable from 5 minutes to 2 hours).The display has a blue backlight as seen in the picture
    • I love the preset buttons, my last radio also had them but this one has twice as many.
    • Good sound but a bit complicate to set up and when done, it is hard to find the right button while in bed, in the dark
    • Pressing "any button other than the Standby button will silence the alarm for 5 minutes" so trying the wrong button costs a lot of time
    • The buttons on the radio and the display works great.
    • nice radio, with all the features I want except it arrived with the alarm adjust button broken
    • Mostly intuitive buttons
    • I like the 7 separate preset radio buttons and the medium large snooze button
    • When the radio comes on in the morning the light of the clock radio will slowly become brighter which is welcome when you are trying to wake up.--I like the fact that you can preset the stations--If you've turned off the lighting on the unit while you are sleeping, you can still push a button on the front of the unit if you want to see--quickly--what time it is.
    • The alarm clock I got doesn't have Sun through Sat labels on the top seven preset buttons, and, seemingly, is not capable if setting alarms for individual weekdays -- which for me is an important feature
    • Raised buttons are easy to find in the dark.
    • However, during the day you can barely see the time display unless you either turn the dial to brighten it, or push the light button to brighten it (better) to see it during the day (you need to push it again to go back to the lower set brightness).
    • TOP RIGHT VERTICAL BUTTON GIVES YOU OPTIONS FOR ON/60/45/30/15 MINUTE INCREMENTS FOR SLEEP
    • I would have expected that the power switch would be on the top of the radio, but it is easily found on the front panel, top right button
    • Too many small buttons with no tactile feel (ie: when the alarm goes off, does anybody really roll over, look at the unit (get blinded by the intensity) and then say, oh ya, the off button is the top-right button?
    • I'd rate this the biggest drawback to this radio -- especially for those relying on it to get out of bed in the morning ;o{
