Big Display Alarm Clock CR-228PL

Ok but not great – It's good when it's set up but very hard to set up one of the hardest ones I have ever had . I do love the big numbers I have had mine for ye a re now but it's just not getting channel working again isn't working . Show details

Love it – Love it. We live on a station with no outside lighting (street lamps) and I can get up an go to the ensuite without having to turn on a light at night. Also easy to set time and easy to see. Great value for money Show details

In a dark room you can see well enough where you are going without having to turn on your bedside lamp. Who the hell ok’d this for production ? I will return this tomorrow.

as you have to scroll all the way through from lowest number to highest, so no easy way to get between 2 favorite stations, even if you only program 2 you still have to go all the way through (although only 10 per band, i.e. 10 FM and 10 AM which makes up their 20 presets).

Call it a 2 brightness display & put a button to go through the presets in the other direction and you'd have 5 stars.

Great value for money - a pleasure to use – This product is similar in design to the extremely disappointing and frustrating Philips AJ3232B clock radio. The speaker is only tiny, but it doesn't have the really annoying crackling sounds of the Philips when listening to AM radio. Also, the volume of the radio alarm can be set to any desired level, unlike the Philips which ramps up to full… Read more

volume regardless of the level set by the user. It just does what most people would expect from a basic, low cost digital AM/FM clock radio, and it does it well. Thanks K-Mart!
