What's great about it: Features, size, looks
What's not so great: Button design, sound quality, feels cheap
I bought this on sale and could not wait to receive it. Today I will be returning it. This is a iPod speaker dock and alarm and here is my problem with both:
Sound Quality: The sound quality of the speakers were sub par for a unit of this size. The sound is muffled and does not even fill a small room. I have used iHome alarm docks before, some even smaller than this that had far better sound quality and clarity. The controls do feature a play/pause button as well as a skip forward and back button. This is a plus when using a iTouch or iPhone. I know that it is primarily an alarm, so I decided to simply use it for it's intended purpose as an alarm.
Alarm function: The dual alarm feature was the biggest selling point as I find myself waking up at 2 different times during the week. The unit also has the ability to wake you to your music or a basic alarm chime. So the alarm rings first thing in the morning, and I find myself having a difficult time locating the power button. I had a vague idea of where it was, but unfortunately the buttons are all flush with a rubber covering. It is always dark when I wake up so i cannot simply look at the buttons either to figure it out. There is a slight texture, but not even enough to distinguish the different buttons. I know the snooze button is easy to push and in a universal location, but I just personally don't use it.
I really tried to like this unit, but I will just spend a few extra dollars to get a unit that I will be truly happy with. In this case, you get what you pay for.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
