⏰ Sangean RCR-3 AM/FM Atomic Digital/Analog Clock Radio - White | Efficiently Sized Review

I love this alarm clock. I've had it for about a year now and I love that I can adjust the brightness and still make it bright with a touch. Because it's a classic "hands" face, it's easier for me to tell what time it is, even in the middle of the night, without having to reach for my glasses to read the numbers. My only annoyance is my own inability to know which button to turn off (turn off completely, don't snooze) in the morning when I didn't wake up at all to realize I'd pressed the wrong…

I persuaded myself to master this watch enough to make it work properly time and time again. reset time. Set the time zone back, I thought, because it was two hours behind. I had it working properly for two weeks, meaning it worked and buzzed on time, the radio never came on as an alarm, I restarted it and then for some unknown reason it was two hours behind again. I left, came back and there was another 2 hour delay, repeated the process and left again only for the same thing to happen. The…

I bought the same watch as pictured 7 years ago and I really like it. I wake up at 4:15am three days a week and can set a repeating alarm for MWF or any combination of days for four alarms. When the watch stopped working, I ordered a new one. It has the same model number and Revain shows it is the same one I ordered in 2010. It should work the same way. It's not like this. Now Sangean has simplified the alarm function and I can select an alarm to sound daily, weekdays or weekends, but nothing…

Very disappointed with this product. As others have noted, this "updated" version lacks some features of the original design and is far less versatile than the original RCR-3. However, reliability is much more important. After only 18 months I had some problems with the device. The intensity of the display's backlight has its own characteristics and varies from the setting I like (nearly the darkest) to full brightness (no night light). I've tried using all the light controls to stabilize it…

I've had one of these for years and it was the best alarm clock I've ever had. However, Sangean has been quietly updating the watch, and while adding some useful features (like RDMS), removing some features I felt were important. . I discovered this when I recently ordered another RCR-3 but found it wasn't the same as the one I already had. to the right of the LCD. This information is no longer displayed in the new version.2) The old model allows you to set alarms for any combination of days…

This clock radio is the best I have ever used. The manual is missing some information on setting up the alarm clock and working with it. I spent over an hour fiddling and experimenting with the buttons to figure out what actually makes this clock tick (no pun intended). For example, nothing is said about the alarm buttons lighting up when activated. Additionally, the volume control on the side of the device is for non-alarm modes only. The volume control on the bottom of the unit is for alarm…

Looking forward to the day I accidentally dropped this thing on the floor to replace it with another which I hope will be better pleases. I bought this unit based on my previous great satisfaction with other Sangean radios I have owned over the years. But unfortunately the series is over. The radio function of this clock radio delivers exceptional sound quality. And I like to listen to the radio for a while after I've gone to bed. But what I needed (and thought I'd get) when I bought it was a…

Based on some reviews of the Sangean RCR-3 clock radio I was a little apprehensive about ordering. And I had to pay attention to those feelings. I wanted an analogue clock radio with radio control. I can't see a normal LCD in the dark without glasses. This new device was meant to replace the combination of clock, radio and phone as fewer and fewer people use landlines these days. It even managed to pick up the WWVB "atomic clock" radio signal about an hour after plugging it in, but more on that
