The build quality is good and it is a genuine product. The clock keeps very accurate time, as you would expect; it picks up the MSF signal very well in the main bedroom of the house where it is used. The only issue I have with it is the display stays lit in the dark hours and then switches itself off in daylight - this is an automatic function and you have no control over it; makes for a great night-light though. Not sure about battery life at the moment - I'm guessing that not being able to switch off the "night-light" function, may drain the batteries quickly - we shall see. Yes, would recommend it - I'm pleased with it.

It was quite easy to set up. However it has a very narrow viewing angle and one cannot alter the angle of tilt, which makes it very difficult to see at night when you are lying in bed. The only way of dealing with the problem is to either sit up in bed, or, to place the clock with a spacer under the back to tilt the screen to get it at 90 degrees to your line of sight. A good clock marred by poor design.

Bought this one to replace one of the same type that had decided to die after years of being knocked off the bedside table! Easy to use and gives a nice glow to be readable at night without having to press any buttons, and with nice big digits for the time. Being radio controlled its always right and doesn't need messing with when the clocks go forwards or back. Batteries last a nice long time ~ typically more than a year.

The clock looks good and stands securely on nice rubber feet. After initial manual set up it locked onto the radio control quickly. The LCD display, like most LCD displays has limited viewing angles fading fast particularly when viewed from below, its best and perfect when viewed from directly in front. The back light works well, only coming on when sensing darkness and is not too bright so as to light up the room. My only annoyance,but it may not bother you, is that as a British designed clock made for the British market ( it only works in the GMT time zone) it displays the calendar data in the American format of month/ date/day and not day/date/month

Well built, functional and stylish. Great bedroom clock. The radio control feature keeps perfect time even when clocks go forward and back in the Spring and Autumn. The backlight switches off during daylight hours and comes when it's dark but it is a bit on the bright side at night. I still wouldn't be without it but I wish there was a way of dimming it.
