Amazon.com Review
Add a little fun to the bedroom with this retro Moonbeam alarm clock from Big Ben. Modeled after the popular 1950's "Considerate Alarm," the electric clock aims to wake sleepers gradually with a blinking light. The light grows brighter over a 4-minute period before a bell-style alarm rings to rouse heavier sleepers. The clock also comes equipped with a snooze function. To illuminate the clock, a 25-watt replaceable light bulb is included. Styled after Big Ben, this analog clock sports brown Arabic numerals and gold clock hands. The dial illuminates in the dark for easy reading. A 58-inch cord allows flexibility in placement. The clock also features a battery back up in the event of a power outage--requiring the separate purchase of two AA batteries. For best results, use this clock in dark rooms with little morning light. The clock measures 5 by 6-1/2 by 2 inches. --Jessica Reuling

Summary: Snooze on through the moonbeams 2008-11-15
Comment: Well how novel is this? The teen wouldn't wake up to music, or buzzers, so how about flashing lights? Neither the blinks nor the bells disturb the sleeping boy. Don't buy it, the concept or the clock. Try pouring water on him; that works and it's cheaper!

Summary: Great, but the face light is too bright 2008-08-01
Comment: I have had my clock for a few years now and I love it. It has always kept perfect time. I like the light to wake up by, but in the beginning I was wondering who was turning on the bedroom light! The face light was WAY too bright for me so I disconnected it immediately. When the moon is out, I find that I cover my face with blankets to sleep so I need the alarm bells and I wish they were just a little bit louder.

Summary: I love this clock 2007-05-12
Comment: This is a great little clock. The Big Ben Moonbeam not only keeps great time, the glow in the dark feature acts as a night light. The settings are easy to use and I've found that the battery back-up is a handy little feature. I work a very early shift & the flashing light allows me to wake up without a screeching alarm waking the rest of the house. I must admit, I've used the snooze alarm more than a few times and I much prefer the flashing light to a loud obnoxious buzz - however heavy sleepers will still get their buzz if the flashing light is not sufficient encouragement to wake them.
If you are looking for a clock that does everything but make your morning coffee, this clock may not be for you. I you want a great retro styled clock that is easy to operate and works like a charm, you can't get wrong with the Big Ben Moonbeam.

Summary: We love it! 2007-05-08
Comment: It's reliable, the flashing light is a nice way to wake up in the morning, the ring is a good back-up, it has a nice classic look. We liked the first one so much, we bought a second (one for my wife).

Summary: wake up sunshine 2007-01-03
Comment: I had this clock as a child and ordered it for my grandson who has trouble waking up in the morning. It arrived broken so we never got to use it. Be forewarned that I never received a refund because I checked the gift box during checkout. He didn't get anything either. I hope others enjoy the clock because Big Ben was a name we all trusted.
