 Broke almost immediately November 11, 2008
I was so pleased by the appearance of the clock when it first arrived. But within the first 24 hours, the sweep second-hand had broken off, and within 48 hours it no longer worked at all. I tried playing around with the battery placement after reading others reviews, but I got nothing. It LOOKS great, but it is very shoddily made. I'd return it but I threw out the packaging. I would not purchase it again.
 Easy to read and use, Not easy to stand upright June 1, 2008
I love the ease withwhich I can set the time, set the alarm and view it in the dark, however, it does not stand on its tri leg configuration very easily. I am constantly knocking it over and althought ThaT in itself does not render the alarm inoperable, it does make it difficult to orient and turn off, in the wee hours of the morning upon waking to its nicely sounding alarm.
Its quiet and I would buy it again but the leg thing is annoying.
 nice clock November 14, 2007
I ordered this clock for my ten year old daughter. When this first clock came, it didn't work at all. I returned it to Amazon, no problem, and they sent a replacement, which worked fine. It is perhaps a bit less sturdy than I might like, but it has a nightlight, is easy to set, keeps time well, and the alarm is loud. It's perfectly fine for a child.

Hi everybody,
Though I like the looks of this alarm clock (still do), it hasn't worked reliably from the start. I kept putting in new (brand name) batteries, but that doesn't help. The clock keeps stopping, e.g., when the clock gets moved slightly (picked up to operate the light, for example). Obviously, I end up not using it because I don't feel like I can rely on it - kind of the opposite what you need in an alarm clock! I'd like to return it, but I won't because of the hassle... so, at least I want to warn potential buyers that this was NOT a good purchase! In fact, a waste of money. I strongly recommend *not* to buy this alarm clock.
jaunty little timepiece July 13, 2007

Has the polished bronze look of certain coffin handles. The only thing I don't like about this nifty little clock is that if you balance it on a pair of paperbacks with glossy covers and place it on your night table, you can hear it ticking. Also, the feature where you press a little button on top and illuminate the dial in the middle of the night, the little flash of light that appears is kind of like the blast of light that occurs in "Wicked" when the green witch disappears from the page.
