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.

This is a great little clock that obviously is extremely accurate as it picks up the radio time signal and therefore never needs to be adjusted. The display is very clear, just the right size for a bedside clock and the back-light is excellent--not too bright to keep you awake--but also completely automatic which comes on as it gets dark. All-in-all a great buy.

Good product. Clock not too big and has easy to see large digits. Clock lights up when button pressed but just be aware (if you need a totally dark room at night) it does emit a green light when room is dark.

I have had one of these alarm clocks for many years and was in my case which was lost whilst travelling on a train. Now that I have returned home I have been looking to replace it because it stood in my bathroom and I missed it very much as it was like loosing a friend. But happiness has returned especially as the price was much less than I thought it would be. Arthur Lacey

I am very pleased with this clock since purchasing it a month or so ago. Firstly the price was excellent. It soon locked into the signal and I really like radio controlled clocks as you don't have the bother of manually amending them twice a year. The colour is a dull green. If I look at it at night I can see the time without pressing the light button. Having said that it is not too bright to keep you awake. The alarm is easy enough to set after a couple of times. When the alarm goes off it is very soft but then gets louder. I am one of those people who is usually awake before the alarm goes off anyway. Yes, al in all very pleased.
