Great Clock - Poor Snooze Alarm Setting Sep 06, 2010
Perhaps I should have read other reveiws more thoroughly, but I only found out that the clock has one setting for snooze and that is 10 minutes! Way too long a snooze time for me. It permits me to fall back into a deep sleep only to be surprised in 10 minutes when it goes off again. Therefore, I had to move the alarm setting ahead to account for the 20 mins. between its going off and when I actually want to get out of bed.

Other than that it works fine. I purchased mainly b/c it has dual alarms. That feature is good (as long as I account for the 10 min snooze period!).

Sony Dual Alarm Clock Radio Sep 03, 2010
As others have already stated, this is a wonderful clock radio to have with the dual alarm features. The back-up battery is a real plus when the electricity goes out. The radio sound is OK; it is not the best but suffices. It is worth the price just for the dual alarms and back-up battery features.

A clock that can't decide what time it is.... Aug 20, 2010
I got this alarm clock one year ago to replace an old alarm clock that had seen better days. It does everything it should: decent quality radio, TWO alarms (very handy for us busy college students), and automatically found and set the time even after the power went out in a storm.

The only problem I had realized was that the timing mechanism in the clock seems to be just a little bit, well, off. After a few months of having the alarm clock, I noticed that in comparison with my cell phone and my laptop, the clock was running about 3 minutes fast. No problem, I'll always be a little early. A year after purchase, the too fast problem has steadily increased and my clock is now 12 minutes faster (and not getting any better). I was able to override the automatic time set feature, but the problem keeps coming back. The timing mechanism in the alarm clock is simply wrong and I am now in the market again for a new alarm clock and all too soon at that!

On time and on the money. Aug 20, 2010
Having broken my old alarm, I needed a replacement Quickly, Amazon to the rescue. Went to the site, ordered it and had it in four days.
The numerical display is bright and easy to read. The dual alarms are great. They're easy to set (forward or backward) and easy to activate or deactivate. The "On" indicators are clear. And while the "chirp" volumn could be louder, it is quite adequite and becomes more rapid the longer it is on. The radio quality is very good for such a compact unit. The time self sets out of the box aand has battery back up in case of power outage. This all came at a great price. Overall I give this product a "great".

works for 2 years; now just a clock Aug 15, 2010
I brought this about 2 years ago as my primary alarm clock from a store and it setup automatically even though it was about 7 minutes faster than actual time. I left it since 7 minutes faster gives me extra minutes in the morning but over the years, it was 15 minutes faster than actual time until it malfunction this morning. I woke up and it was ~09:15 and I could not believe I was so tire that I slept more than an hour after my usual wakeup time. Thought I might be coming down with something so I went back to sleep; thank goodness it's Sunday because when I actually got out of bed and made my cup of coffee, I noticed my other clock said 09:03. My Dream Machine was somehow 1 hour and 15 minutes faster than my other clocks.

I got hold of the online maual and I'm still trying to resolve the issue but it's stuck on 12:00pm or 1:00pm DST and it's in timezone 1; it's 4:30pm EST on my 3rd try to reset it. I replaced the battery and no dead battery indicator light came.

Update...seems when it malfunctioned, it cancelled the factory setting so there is no automatic time set. I set the clock manually. Let see when the next malfunction will happen. I no longer trust this clock as my alarm clock but I'll use it as a "clock".
