Review on Sony ICFC180 AM/FM Clock Radio - Discontinued Model, White Color by Matt Estrada

I am very satisfied with this alarm clock. I usually wake up for work around 4:30am, the buttons are logically placed and easy to find in the dark. Two large buttons (A and B) on the front toggle the dual alarms on and off. One of my favorite features is the indicator below, which shows when your alarms go off. They light up and show the alarm time only when the alarms are activated. In other words, if Alarm "A" is on and Alarm "B" is off, only the side of Alarm "A" will be lit. You can set a different alarm time for the weekend without changing the day of the week setting. But remember, you'll have to choose one or the other, so you can't set Alarm A for your workday and Alarm B for the weekend. Weekday alarms are displayed in orange and weekend alarms in green. You have the option of being woken up with a radio, buzzer or ringtone. The buzzer is not very loud. I appreciate that because I'm a very light sleeper and don't like being thrown out of bed. If you have trouble waking up, you can choose a louder ringtone or a radio that can be turned on as loud as you like. The clock is very easy to set up, especially if you live on the east coast. Simply take it out of the packaging and plug it in. The current time is already set at the factory. Small replaceable lithium battery saves time and alarm settings. If you're in a different time zone (other than Eastern), there are buttons to change the time, but I've had no reason to try them. There is also a button to toggle between winter time and summer time. A small icon on the display indicates which one is installed. Very easy to use. Sleep and sleep timers are available. Press the buttons repeatedly to select the desired length. If you press the big snooze button, you can also press it multiple times to give yourself more snooze time in 10-minute increments. FYI, the radio has an analog tuner, not a digital one. I don't plan on using the radio so I don't see it as a problem. The only downside is that the LCD is difficult to read at odd angles. My bedside table is flush with my pillow and I had to lift the back of the clock to see the time better.
