Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)After 2 years with a GE alarm clock that required a doctorate to program I just ordered this one. I love all things Sony. The numbers are large and just the right brightness for light sleepers. The switchs, lights, and knobs all make sense. For the price, its a great alarm clock. For the reasons below I must return it, but for the average user it should be fine.
The provisos are as follows:
First, the small one. As an employee who's schedule varies, I find the alarm set features annoying. You cannot go back in time, but rather have to scroll forward around the horn in order to change the time from 7:00 to 6:45. For someone who gets up at the same time everyday, this should not be a problem.
The second, and very large problem for myself is the volume of the alarm. It is loud, VERY loud. Even the soft setting is enough to startle me out of sleep and I am a very heavy sleeper. This I could get used to. However, my wife is a lighter sleeper and my 2 month old daughter (who sleeps in the room with us) is a very light sleeper. I now awake to a loud alarm clock and a screaming baby. For the average user, this will not be a problem, but if you dislike loud alarms, skip this one.
