Good little radio alarm.

This is a good all round alarm clock that is compact, easy to use and has a lovely, bright easy to read LED display

Otherwise this alarm is well worth the money!

excellent alarm clock

I do not use this for the radio so I cannot comment on that aspect of this alarm clock, but if you are looking for a reliable, well built alarm clock that will last you for an extremely long time (I have already had it over a year and a half), then this is it

It doesn't matter too much if I oversleep and wake up at noon, but I was hoping to wake up somewhere between 9~11 when I set the quiet alarm at 8AM

Not happy to wake up at 4am 4 days in a row by an annoying alarm clock!

This is a great alarm clock for the money

This alarm starts pretty quiet, so I can shake him awake to turn it off before it wakes up the whole house!

It's hard to find a decent, inexpensive alarm clock, and this is the best I've found so far.

This is the best alarm clock ever!

The alarm is nice - it starts as a medium level beep then gradually gets louder.

This is a good standard alarm clock but there are 2 problems: 1)the alarm is not very loud (but still loud enough for me to wake up); 2)it constantly makes a very quiet high frequency noise

If you need a really loud alarm then you should use the radio alarm rather than the buzzer alarm.

works perfectly, easy to set the alarm and just loud enough to wake

Bought this for my 21 year nephew, figured a loud alarm clock could help getting him up on time for work

Except for some goofy behavior with the time setting whenever you unplug it, this clock is easy to use and has a nice alarm (not too brash) and radio that gets good reception.

If you don't need lots of additional features, this is a great little alarm clock.

why oh why did Sony discontinue this amazing alarm clock?!?!

This was and is my favorite alarm clock of all time

After visiting various stores for a better alarm clock, I settled on this one and am glad I did

so I could set the damn alarm once againfor 6:00

Great little alarm/radio

The alarm is loud enough to get you up

This is a very nice alarm clock

Good, basic alarm, this is our second one, the last one lasted a good long time!

This is a great alarm clock

The volume control and the station finder are not as convenient, neither is the sound the greatest in the world, but it is just a little, inexpensive alarm clock, so I can forgive it for these inadequacies

Killer alarm clock, compact and works great, no regrets.

works perfectly.........great little alarm clock

great alarm clock

Simple AM/FM radio, alarm clock that works fine

This is best alarm clock ever with the extended snooze.

It's been a great little alarm clock

This is a nice alarm clock with radio

Four years later my daughter is in a sixths grade and has been waking up on her on with this amazing alarm/clock (mostly to a FM radio that plays her favorite music in the mornings 99.9 here in Toronto

Wanted an economical alarm clock and this one had all the desired features I was looking for.

The alarm worked the first two days and then quit which is the only reason I bought the thing in the first place.

Anyway the item was received in excellent condition from the seller and I would recommend this item from the seller to anyone looking for a reliable clock radio alarm.

the radio reception is not good at all. as far as the alarm is concerned, it is an easy to use alarm clock.

This alarm is amazingly easy to use

This is the best alarm clock I have ever had.

but, again, setting the alarm is a headache

but, i prefer the alarm

Great alarm clock

Only one alarm kind of sucks.

It's a basic alarm clock that works well.

Sooooo I spend the extra money to get this one because they are a very good alarm clock

Great alarm clock

The alarm beeps slowly at first and then faster to get you up - this is much kinder than the jarring alarm I used to own

Other than that it's pretty decent alarm clock.

It is just about the best alarm clock I have ever

Powerful Alarm + Good Radio

Perfect alarm clock, fair radio, but it was the alarm feature that we most wanted.

My 11 year old has woke up many mornings at 5am due to this and then of course you can't go back to sleep because you can't reset the stupid alarm clock

The alarm itself is effective without being overly annoying

That being said, I really like this alarm clock as it's not too bright, and is very easy to set and change the alarm settings.

Good alarm clock and radio

No more shockingly loud alarm and heart attacks in the morning!

big numbers and easy alarm set up.

The alarm isn't obnoxious enough to force me out of bed.

I guess an alternative to this effective alarm clock would be a sledge hammer poised to drop on you at the appropriate time

RADIO HAS TERRIBLE SOUND TERRIBLE RECEPTION AND IS VERY HARD TO TUNE, ALARM SET UP IS VERY DIFFICULT TO COMPLETE.POSITIVES: DIGITAL TIME DISPLAY IS EXCELLENT

This was the easiest alarm clock I have ever used

In the past i've had more expensive alarm clocks, and I like this one far more.

The alarm? pretty loud, enough to get you up on your feet in the morning.

Its a great alarm clock.

I use it as a backup to my more gentle phone alarm.

Since this alarm is very good for what you get at such a low price, I can live with that.

All the important features - battery backup, automatic time synch, intuitive alarm setting, good (but gentle on the eyes) time visibility

but it looks so good in my dorm and hopefully will be a good alarm clock.

All in all, it is a good alarm clock.

It's alarm is loud enough to wake you

The only missing feature that would have been nice would be a dual alarm, though for the price this lack cannot be complained of

The alarm is loud enough but not too loud, the radio alarm works perfectly and the sound is not bad for such a small radio.

The alarm and the time are easy to set

It's not a bad alarm clock at all, and does the job quite well, particularly for such a cheap unit

Decent alarm clock, not very loud, ended up being forgotten and stuck in the junk drawer.

The alarm could be a little bit louder, but it is still loud enough to catch your attention

Great alarm clock.

Great watch,alarm,radio, useful day and night, works greatly, thanks seller

Don't use radio very much but the alarm works great and I like the green lighting versus typical red.

The alarm is easy to set and the radio has a pleasant sound.

peaceful alarm to wake to

I use it primarily as a time piece but it has a pretty good radio and two separate alarms, so it makes a great bedside alarm clock if that's what you're looking for.

The alarm is loud enough to wake me up, but I prefer the radio as it is loud enough to ensure I get up - I can make the radio loud enough to hurt my ears.

I haven't used the alarm yet, but as a clock It's great with large lit numbers.

I find alarms quite obnoxious and an alarm that starts off slowly is preferred

The alarm is nice in that it has a gradual ramping up of urgency

A great alarm clock, you plug it in and the time is set!!!

Killer alarm clock, compact and works great, no regrets.

best alarm clock I've ever owned...even reset itself when the time changed..sooooo cool..alarm set as simple as possible

A radio as well as an alarm clock

a nice reliable alarm)!Others have complained that its not really an "auto adjust" clock like it says

The alarm set button stopped working after only 5-6 months.

Great basic alarm clock with backup battery

Handy little nightstand alarm clock with great radio reception

A great basic alarm clock

The alarm is a little tricky to set and it is not for a heavy sleeper.

Fantastic alarm setting "toggle switch".

But the alarm is not very loud.

I like the Sony brand name, and I got what I wanted, a good alarm clock with

It might actually be the best alarm clock I've ever owned.

The alarm is very easy to set each night and the quality of the radio sound is pretty good.

The alarm is loud enough but not too loud, the radio alarm works perfectly and the sound is not bad for such a small radio.

The alarm works beautifully, and has a snooze element to it.

Great lil alarm clock..

This isn't the fanciest alarm clock but if you want something that works and gets the job done for a good price, I strongly recommend this one

The size is right, and the alarm is gentle

i like the regular annoying alarm sounds it makes to get me up!

Great little alarm clock.

Its a nice alarm Clock, easy to read during night, easy to set up, good choice

It is the best alarm clock ever.

biggest gripe is that the alarm is very quiet

It has provided me with a good alarm that resets for the next day.

It serves the purpose for which I bought it: an easy to see 'smart' alarm clock with a backup battery

This is a good standard alarm clock but there are 2 problems: 1)the alarm is not very loud (but still loud enough for me to wake up); 2)it constantly makes a very quiet high frequency noise

Simple to use, pleasant alarm (as alarms go) and reliable.

Pathetic alarm.

Alarm is loud enough to wake someone from a deep slumber.

This alarm starts pretty quiet, so I can shake him awake to turn it off before it wakes up the whole house!

so now I have a useless alarm I cant read unless I stick my face in it.

The alarm is easy to set

Nice little alarm clock, easy to use.

Very easy alarm set

I've had this alarm for over a year and it hasn't failed me yet

, it beats the loud annoying alarm on my old clock radio.

Works well, the alarm is not too loud, nor is it annoying.

Fantastic alarm clock and extremely intuitive

Personally, that works better for me as I find the "alarm" option a bit harsh

This is an AWESOME alarm clock

The clock works just fine and the alarm works just fine - only problem is that it is not very loud - speaker does not turn up loud enough, nor does the alarm.

Not the loudest alarm.

Good basic alarm clock

For $11.00, this is a perfect alarm clock, considering it is a Sony product

Nice little alarm clock for a good price.

We are trashing both clocks and buying a cheaper digital alarm clock

Bottom line, if you need a really reliable alarm clock, this is not the one.

What I like most about it is the set it and forget about it alarm, great since I wake up a the same time every day.

The ICF-C218 is still one of the best alarm clocks under $20, in my opinion, and it should be more than adequate for most wake-up needs.

Worked for 6 months then alarm function totally failed, both buzzer and radio.

Great alarm clock for the money

then this is not the alarm clock you would enjoy, if I was buying another alarm clock now i would not buy this one, but I can't either say that it's a peace of

Not that it has anything to do with the clock but its design in nice and low, so when I have my android phone charging next to it I can flip my phone on its side and cover the light on the alarm clock which I love (especially if your like me and enjoy pitch black when you sleep but still

I have (had) an alarm clock for years that didn't work well.

Easy button , alarm sets with a move of finger

It is far too easy to activate the switch when turning the alarm off in the dark; resulting in incorrect alarm times

This stupid dual alarm clock, it is in the kitchen now, it is hard to figure out how to turn the dumb thing off, too complicated and cumbersome

Has proved to be easy to use and has a much better alarm sound than my old alarm clock.

Overall, this is a well designed clock radio alarm at an attractive price.

There's a dual alarm version available for a few bucks more too

Why make a quiet alarm

It's the perfect alarm clock

Great alarm clock, I now wake to birds chirping.

It still works great as a regular alarm though, just wish the radio was better

Best and simplest alarm clock out there

this is one of the cheaper alarm clocks i've

And the alarm doesn't always work

For $11 with free shipping, this is the best alarm clock I've ever bought.

I didn't need anything fancy, just a really loud alarm

I didn't need anything fancy, just a really loud alarm

This is a great and very simple alarm clock

Thankfully I found one, so I'll have another 10 years with the perfect alarm clock!

If you're looking for a high-fidelity radio, look elsewhere, but if you're looking for a reliable little alarm clock that will wake you up at the right time even if the power goes out

Most people could figure out how to set, arm and disarm the alarm without needing to consult a user manual; the same cannot be said for many other electronic alarm clocks that are available.

I would definitely recommend this product to everyone whos looking for a cheap but great alarm clock.

This is a nice, simple alarm clock that already knows what time it is and updates automatically from NIST transmissions.

This product is very easy to use and pretty straight forward, however the alarm is SSOO annoying!

So if you plan on just ignoring the alarm instead of snoozing it, it knows how to annoy the heck out of you

The alarm is loud enough to wake me up, but I prefer the radio as it is loud enough to ensure I get up - I can make the radio loud enough to hurt my ears.

The radio is fine, and the alarm is loud enough to wake me (I am a light sleeper though

My only complaint is that I wish the alarm were louder.

Very good basic alarm clock

Overall, a nice, simple alarm clock that works well and looks good.

When she goes to take a shower she always brings her clock with her and all I can hear all around the three bedroom house is the music from the bathroom LOLNot only the alarm and the clock works great not to mention that if you unplug it and plug it back in no meter how long they are unplugged for the clock always sets the time on by it self with day time saving mode switching on its own as it is smart clock

Alarm is loud and the display is easily read at a distance

The numbers are a nice size, bright enough, radio comes in clear, alarm works well

Works well, the alarm is not too loud, nor is it annoying.

The alarm stopped working on this a few months after I received it.

For the price it's not a bad alarm clock.

This is a nice alarm radio with buttons designed intuitively and a large display that is easy to read from far away.

The actual alarm on the clock was terrible also

My old alarm clock used to jolt me out of bed with its horrible screech alarm but the Sony alarm is much gentler on the old nerves

If you're really desperate for the most basic, foolproof alarm clock, this isn't it; you set the alarm with a small

i like this alarm radio combo.the radio works better than others that i have.numbers are green and easy to read with aging eyes.

Great alarm clock

Excellent alarm clock, not so much a radio compared to what I have used in the past, however, my main use is as an alarm clock.

The front face is clean and spiffy looking, the shape elegant but simple -- it fit the décor of the crappy motel off the interstate you stopped at, desperate with exhaustion, as well as it did the five-star room you treated yourself to for a weekend getaway

Works as it is advertised.

Very confusing as to how to set everything on this clock from the clock itself to the alarm.

Everything worked as it should, although some of the FM stations with weaker signals don't come as clean and strong as I'd like

I,am glad l bought this radio, For the you can't beat it l keep it the spare bedroom
