Annoying and Gimmicky

Challenging to tune the radio. All the flashy lights are an annoying gimmick. A simple knob for volume and a knob to tune the radio would be ideal, with either digital or analog tuning.
There is no way to shut off the pulsating light when you're charging your phone using the wireless charger - annoying. There is no appropriate setting for dimming the clock such that it is dim enough at night but readable during the day - annoying.
Overall, I find it counter intuitive to use. I would describe it as a cheap piece of plastic garbage.
It would be great to see a bedside alarm clock that went back to a simple design that is easy and intuitive. For $100 that's table stakes.
For what it is, $15 might be a reasonable price. For the $100 price tag I expect a heck of a lot more.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Looks nice… ridiculous to set up

Not straight forward to set up (at all). Bluetooth conflicts with manual set up of clock which wouldn’t advance when Bluetooth was disconnected. Unplug cords. Take out batteries. Wait 30 seconds to reset. The process needed just to set an alarm is ridiculous! It’s still in my son’s room unplugged and not set up. Totally unimpressed and would’ve returned if my wife hasn’t already thrown out the box. iHome = waste of money!
