Timex T715BW3 Alarm Clock Radio Review

I didn't know the term "REDI-SET" literally means it was ready and it installs as soon as you plug it in. Wow how comfortable! The alarm setting was intuitive and I had a small problem. I like the double alarm. One for me and one for my friend. And each of us can choose to have a buzzer or a radio. It took some time to get used to the sound of the buzzer. I think I got used to my old alarm clock. This buzzing reminded me a lot of the beeping of a heart monitor in a hospital. I woke up from…

I've been looking for a reliable clock radio with dual alarms and backup power for a long time. After several failed attempts, I finally found a keeper! Pros: * Works! Unlike the Sony ICF-C318, which is also popular with Revain, this clock radio worked as advertised and had no flaws. Check out my Sony review to see how awful it is. * Radio reception suits me, unlike some other reviewers. There is an external antenna cable that will help. * Clock sets itself * Dual alarm works great * Saves time

We were looking for an Emerson Auto Adjust SmartSet watch and were disappointed to learn that the only models currently available are a Green or Blue Have LED dial. and square rectangular shape. While this Timex doesn't call itself a "SmartSet," it's actually built with the same technology. It worked flawlessly as soon as we plugged it in, automatically compensating for daylight saving time, and recovering from multiple power outages. A NOTICE. Beware of purchasing older Emerson Smartset…

Not caring about the radio (which sounded like a godsend to me, especially at this price point) this alarm clock had everything I wanted and more. When I plugged it in, the time and date were correct straight away. Living in the Eastern Time Zone, I didn't have to make any adjustments, but once I went through the buttons, they were easy to find and change. The dual alarms work well and are easy to use. There are alarm modes so you can have the alarm go off all days, just weekdays, or just…

I have just replaced a fancier dual alarm radio that only lasted about 5 years before the alarm stopped working. I couldn't set the alarm anymore (it was a Timex MP3 line-in with CD player alarm). I've never had dual alarms before Timex MP3, but I've found it to be a good solution for those who need to wake up slowly and have trouble waking up. I can set the Timex T715BX3 alarm to wake me up to the radio and then set the secondary alarm to wake me up with a buzzer that usually wakes me up from…

I have reviewed many alarm clocks and chose this one because it had the most (NOBODY makes an alarm clock that has everything for a decent price) features that I wanted. I've had it for over a month now and it keeps time well: you have to set the factory time when you first use it, but after that the on-board computer chip does its job well. The red numbers are too light even in dim mode, so I wrapped them in plastic wrap and used a black marker. The brightness is thus in the acceptable range…

Agree with other reviewers, radio reception is not the best, although I followed the guide by lengthening the antenna cable. But I don't need a radio and I bought this clock which is based on the same alarm clock my husband uses and it had the features I wanted. Double alarms, automatic update for daylight saving time, etc. The first day it worked perfectly, then the second day the "Low Battery" light started flashing, even though it has been connected to the "Live" and not the wall since…
