I'm so excited I found a replacement.

my previous model of this alarm clock just died. I've had it since school and I'll be 42 in May. I'm so excited that I can replace it with the same one. The best alarm clock.

Pros
  • beautiful thing
Cons
  • compatibility

I love the preset keys!

The best thing about this clock radio are the preset buttons! They are in our car radios; Why can't more clock radio manufacturers incorporate preset buttons into their designs? I've had two of these for a few years and would like another one, but can't find anything that compares.

Pros
  • Heavy Duty
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide

Lots of features in clock radio

This clock has many features that I like such as the ability to set an alarm for a different time for each day of the week (e.g. 6:30pm, 8:30am CLOCK). 00 on Saturday, off. on Sunday), his and her alarm clocks and the automatic shut-off (after 90 minutes, after 60 minutes, after 30 minutes, etc.). What I don't like is that the dial is too bright, you need a guide even for the basic setup, and they make those annoying beeps every time you press the button. But in general, this is a truly…

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • A bit crumpled

The best alarm clock I've ever had.

I have had this alarm clock for over ten years and would love to find another. There are two features that I find difficult to do without now. First, it is an emergency power supply without batteries. It's nice to know that you have six hours of backup without worrying about how old the battery is. The second and most important thing for me is the ability to choose which days of the week this or that alarm clock should ring. This feature is awesome and I'm surprised I don't see it on other…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • -

Bad receiver

I bought this clock radio a few years ago and immediately found that it doesn't pick up the radio stations I wanted, at least not very well. Another radio on the other side of our bed tunes the same stations. I was also annoyed by the beeps that are generated each time a key is pressed. I don't want to wake my wife when I change something! My daughter just got me a new Timex Model T308 clock radio to replace the Sony. Timex works great, installed in the same place as Timex.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Tradeable

Best Sony clock radio,

Surprised to find this unit at Revain. Out of production for over a decade, I bought this alarm clock a few years ago and missed it when it finally died. The product arrived as described and works great. Without a doubt the best alarm clock I've ever had. Two independent alarm clocks, radio digital setting and date function. The user manual is available on the Sony website. It's a little tricky to set up, but once installed, it just works. The large capacitor serves as a backup, so no batteries

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

best alarm clock!

Well, first of all, I didn't buy a Revain alarm clock. Where and when I bought it was PC Richard back in 11/93. Yes, like in November 1993! I couldn't believe it. Well I just moved to a new place and was looking through old boxes. I found the receipt in the box. I still have that alarm clock. It still works fine. It was the best when I got it. It cost $45. About now I do not know, I decided to look. And even now I can't find an alarm clock with the same function or even similar to what it…

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

7 preset radio stations that work in the dark.

I have had this radio for many years - 20 years? 30 years? It helped me a lot, but a memory preset button broke at some point, so I'm buying another one. I was surprised I couldn't find another radio on the market with 7 presets so you can change radio stations at night in the dark with just a touch, fairly large buttons. There is another brand that has 5 x 2 gifts (5 for AM and 5 for FM). So if you love FM, there might be more. But this one lets you preset (or mix and match FM) 7 AM stations…
