Overpriced! best home accessories

Whilst I am sure this clock is accurate as are most battery/quartz movements I would only recommend this purchase if it was about 2/3 cheaper. This Chinese made watch is very cheap and should cost around $30! Hidden behind a fairly acceptable wooden "cabinet" is an inexpensive quartz movement that can be found at the Walmart specialty store for $7.99. The electronic chime sounds so cheap (like a child's toy) that I decided to leave it out so as not to confuse visitors. Also, poorly translated instructions refer to the use of "carbon-zinc batteries". What? I think they refer to carbon zinc alloys which are of the lowest quality and were common around 40 years ago. If you are stupid enough to buy this, please use alkaline batteries. I do not recommend this expensive junk.

Pros
  • good product for the price
Cons
  • fragile
