Terrible display/CD problems

Display was terrible. It is generally impossible to read while lying in bed. I had to sit up straight and look at the right angle to read the time. The CD player will typically play 4 or 5 tracks and then speed up, skip and play garbled. It was like that with every CD, not the CD itself. Went back to my old dream car to read the display!

Pros
  • Triple alarm - 3 times/3 modes (CD/Radio/Buzzer)
Cons
  • Poor instructions

not recommended even after repair. Overpriced

I can't see my original review. The device was bad for a number of reasons so I spoke to customer service about returning it and in the end they refunded my purchase and said to just keep the device. Since it operates an alarm clock, radio, CD or horn, it is well suited for this. I just set it to beep and it beeps softly every morning. It's over my head so I can usually hear the alarm, but for an alarm it's very quiet. It's useless. I tried the CD but it skips and the radio only picks up some…

Pros
  • CD, CDR and CDRW playback compatible
Cons
  • Very expensive

Sony ICF with weather station

This product is excellent. It will no longer work with TV channels due to the changeover of television to digital. But the weather stations are great. Easy to use if you have the instructions I got from the internet. This product is no longer made and this was a big mistake by SONY as they do so much. There are three alarm options with the ability to set three different times. The alarm clock can be easily switched off or reset. But what's really nice is the daytime nap feature, which doesn't…

Pros
  • Headphone jack for connecting optional stereo headphones
Cons
  • Not sure
