Comment: Interesting to see the range of responses. This one always wakes me up without jolting me out of bed. I love its slender compactness, and find the alarm setting is exact enough for my purposes. Great to tuck into a purse when needed, as it's so light-weight.
Must admit that after a few years of being knocked on the floor, its alarm is no longer reliable. But I'm buying the same model again, and will place it in a more secure location!

Comment: Great little clock - easy to set, easy to see (ok, it's not backlit, but I can do without that since it means not worrying about battery life), easy to pack (I keep it in my toiletry case ready to go), and you don't need to worry about batteries (the promised battery life is SEVEN YEARS -- I'll have lost it by then). And unlike almost all travel alarms, it's well designed, seems adequately sturdy, and is kinda good looking. I was hesitant to spend this much on a travel alarm but I'm glad I did. As one reviewer noted, it's hard to set the alarm to the minute, but that's not an issue for me because when traveling on business I routinely set multiple alarms (cellphone, clock radio if I can figure out how it works, or hotel wake-up call, AND my own alarm).

Comment: Flimsy construction. Non-intuitive. Not up to AMAZON'S standards.
And, that is precisely why we have dealt with AMAZON for years and years...It stands behind it's merchandise.

Comment: It's very compact for travel which is nice but if you need an accurate alarm this is not the clock for you. I'm returning this item today because the alarm just doesn't function like it should. The alarm set dial on the face of the clock is in 10 minute increments. The alarm itself goes off plus or minus 7 or 8 minutes either way. One time it didn't go off at all.
It's great for time, not so great for an alarm clock.
