PhilipsWake-Up Alarm Clock with Radio, Radio with Display for Bedside, Digital Radio with Dual Alarm, Sleep Timer & Snooze Function, Portable with Battery Back-up, Black with large Display TAR3306/12

Has been in use for years now. It has been reliable. Sounds reasonable for an alarm clock.

I bought this for the big bright easy to see display and because I was fed up with an overly complicated PURE radio alarm that for all it's cleverness had a tiny display and was a real pain to use.This is not the easiest to set up but have a little patient and you'll get there.The instructions are more of gesture in direction of how to set the thing than a detailed manual but they suffice.The radio alarm clock feels really well made and robust and looks stylish. The buttons are a little on the small side but overall it's a good product that does what it should. I particularly like the way the radio alarm sound comes on gradually rather than a sudden burst of sound.

It arrived on time and it works as expected.Being able to change the brightness is handy. I use the dimmest setting at night and the brightest during the day. There's a total of three brightness levels.Having two alarms is helpful too.Regarding the comments by other reviewers about the instructions being insufficient, I managed to figure out how to set everything up without looking at the notes.

Wanted an alarm clock radio that I could see but didn't light up the entire bedroom.Perfect .

Radio came on quietly but increased in volume .too loud first thing in themorning.. Sent it back

I bought this for my mum. The clock face is huge so the time is very clear to see but the setup was a nightmare for her so I had to set it up

The radio worked well - but unfortunately the clock didn't work at all, hence the return. However I can say that the 'get started' manual promised was not included, and the online manual was intended for a different version of the model, with somewhat different controls shown. This is also nor cheap. For what it does there are cheaper products on the market

Sending back for refund was even more difficult. Not possible at post office and had to walk half a mile to a shop? On returning home someone came to collect !!
