Straight forward design, retro good looks is where functionality meets style. Quality build and great sound. I would definitely recommend this, and would consider purchasing another.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Decent sound, limited functionality
on December 30, 2024

The sound is decent but not great. Purchased to replace my 20 year old Boston Accoustic clock radio and I'd say the Boston has a slight edge on sound. What I really dislike about the Model Three is the alarm functionality and clock. I get it, it's a radio first. But if you're going to include functions, go all the way. The fact that there is a single button that you have to long press to change the clock time is ridiculous. If you mess up and go past the time, you basically have to start all over again! Same goes with the alarm setting. Why would you ever make a clock that can only change time and alarm in a single direction is beyond me. Additionally, the snooze is only a 5 minute snooze with no option to change the snooze duration. And you can only press snooze twice! Very disappointed.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Classic good looks

I think that the clock radio is a great looking piece of furniture. The audio is pretty good and the BT works well as does the tuner. In retrospect I would have bought a different color one. The face place is very difficult to read.
I would recommend this to a friend!

beautiful machine, horrible clock

my husband and I needed to replace a clock radio in our bedroom and thought this unit would work. But we both could not see the time in the darkened room. No adjustments can be made, so we returned the unit. Very disappointed.

The Designer Missed Something Critical (otherwise a 5 star)
on January 21, 2025
Posted by: Felix St. A.

Ok, I wanted to like this. I love the aesthetic, and the tuner is amazing. HOWEVER, the downfall is that the clock is NOT dimmable. You've got to be kidding me! If you want to use this on a night stand next to your bed, you will have a VERY bright light shinning in your eyes all night. TOTALLY unacceptable considering the marketed quality and price for this. Again, if the light was user dimmable to be very minimal at night, then I would absolutely love this thing. But this is a deal braker for me. My old Bose clock radio tuner finally quit and I was hopeful this would be an equivalent quality replacement. But I cannot sleep with car headlights in my eyes, and I refuse to cover it with a cloth for the price. Honestly, Tivoli, did your designers not even test this next to their pillow? VERY disappointing. I'm frankly shocked!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Nice radio.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good-looking & full-featured, table radio. I like the bluetooth & aux in features. Full-bodied sound & does a good job of receiving my local, low-power FM station.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great sound, stylish, and easy to use. Almost impossible to read function labels.

I truly love this clock radio. I have it set up at my work desk and use the Aux line to play my computer sound over the speaker. This gives me much better audio quality when I'm in Zoom meetings. I love the way it looks, the antenna definitely improves my FM reception over my prior clock radio, and the bluetooth was easy to connect to my phone. The sound quality for the radio, bluetooth, and aux are all very good.The only reason this isn't a 5 star review is that it is hard to read any of the labels on the front control panel or the rear input panel. The labels on my model are gray against a slightly darker gray background. To read the labels I have to pick up the radio and hold it at different angles until the light hits it just right--the paint is a little glossy, so it is a little bit reflective when the light hits it just so. Obviously I don't want to be picking up the radio and moving it all around just to read the labels, so I keep the user manual on my desk and use that to see what each button, knob, or input port is for. This might not be a problem on other colors, but on the wood one with the dark gray panels, it is definitely a problem. I hope Tivoli fixes this on future versions of this device.
