I like to have alarms set on two different devices, incase one of them fails, and after my 10 year old Winnie the Pooh clock died, I decided to find something a little more age-appropriate. Without too much word vomit, I'm going to break this product down into the features that stood out to me:
Radio: I had no trouble with the radio sound quality. There's little to no static, and I didn't have to use the square thing (possibly the antenna?) that was provided. I tried it, but I found there to be no difference. Additionally, there are 5 presets for the radio, and I would highly recommend spending the time to set them when you're setting the clock up. Getting to the stations was TEDIOUS. There has to be an easier way.
Brightness: there are 4 different options - bright, medium, dim, and nothingness. I like to sleep with a night light on, so the bright really doesn't bother me at night. The snooze button acts as a "next" button as well as the brightness changer button, so it's fairly simple to change the brightness if it gets too bothersome.
Alarm: you can set two alarms with this clock, and there is an option to set each alarm for either weekday only, weekend only, or weekday and weekend. You can also choose to just set one alarm.
Projection feature: I didn't know this clock had this feature when I bought it, so this was a nice surprise. It projects red, and there's a dial to change the location. At first, I couldn't figure out why the numbers were projecting backwards, but I found a button that rotates the numbers and flips them accordingly.
Overall, I really love this product. I would highly recommend this, because not only was it easy to use, it looks great, and it has all the necessary functions with just the right amount of bells and whistles.
