Bought this product mainly because of the fantastic sound from the radio. However, once I got it home, trying to configure the steps for this to be an alarm clock was extremely troubling. The directions bottom line do not work. Therefore, I just have a radio that plays but no alarming system.
Disappointed is not the word to even describe how I feel. The details are vague and trying to put this piece of design together was and is not simple. There could at least be a toll free number to call if having trouble getting this to work.
Nice looking design, but fails at performance
Pros: great sound
Cons: cannot assemble the components for alarm to work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Alarm Fails Sometimes

Great sound but alarm, set to radio, inconsistently fails despite being set correctly. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it fails. We were graciously sent a replacement but have the same problem with replacement system.
Pros: good sound
Cons: alarm fails sometimes
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Poorly engineered product in terms of ease of use...Also, the alarm does not work.
Great sound, but I wish the alarm clock feature was easier to use.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I am on my second unit. The first unit the display went out right away and the store replaced it. On this unit it lasted a while longer but it has now gone out also.

I bought it for the sound and the looks. Beautifully made and quality with real aluminum top and metal grill! The display is modern and elegant like a gem. The Digital Tuner is amazing and picks stations very well in Stereo without noise! The sound is clean and warm and with a nice Stereo Field. I think this is the nicest alarm clock for the money I have ever found. I love it!
