Review on ⏰ Emerson SmartSet Alarm Clock Radio with Bluetooth Speaker, Charging Station and Dual USB Ports for iPhone, iPad, iPod, Android, Tablets - ER100102 by Sander Savala

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Functional but not intuitive to set up

Definitely not intuitive how to set up many of the functions of this alarm clock. Too many functions per button. The snooze button is relatively small and the sleep button is hard to find in the dark. I read the instructions and it took me 20 minutes to set this alarm clock. This should be obvious and only takes a few minutes to customize or set up. In order to set both the radio frequency and the time, you have to scroll through the entire cycle, you cannot move forwards or backwards with numbers. I have to keep the instructions next to this watch in case I need to change or reset it because it's not intuitive at all. Numerous other annoyances compared to my old, intuitive and much better Emerson Research alarm clock. This device was more expensive and in fact much inferior to the old Emerson clock radios. I'm only keeping this to avoid the hassle of sending it back and because I need a watch that will automatically set the time if the power goes out, which happens quite often. The digit display is adequate, with good-sized digits, and the brightness is okay if you step down a notch.
