Great clock radio!

After another terrible experience with a different brand, I bought this clock/radio without much expectation, but it turned out to be great! It has all the features I want: volume control with a dial, rather than push-button setting for more accurate control of volume; similar dial control of tuning, to better tune to the station you want; easy-to-use buttons for setting time and alarm; and a dimmable display. My only beef is that it is already telling me I need to replace the battery, but that will be a minor inconvenience. Also a C- to the designer who decided it should live in an uninspiring cube shape, but hey, it works great, so who am I to complain about its looks?Read full review

Tiny Alarm Reset and Complicated DST

Tiny alarm reset button not raised so difficult to find especially in the dark. The steps required for DST(day light savings) adjustment are ridiculous. This function should not have been included which would make the whole time setting function easy. I don't care if I have to adjust time twice a year. Size and display good.Read full review

Good clock for a good price

Real easy to use. Nice modern look. Alarm could be louder. Radio sounds louder than the alarm. So if you want to wake up quick set alarm to radio instead of buzz.The alarm buzz took me over a minute to wake up. The beeping buzz is to gentle to wake up to.The back up battery was dead but no big deal. Just put a new battery. For the price its a great deal. You could never go wrong with a sony.😸Read full review

Compact fun design

Display is adjustable and goes from really bright to not so bright. We sleep in total darkness, so even on the lowest setting it is a little brighter than what we would prefer. Takes a minute to figure out how to set the time and alarm. Not a very user friendly design. For example, when I press the radio button it plays the radio. If I press it again it keeps playing the radio. You have to hit Alarm Reset to turn off the radio. Cheap price on a name brand though will probably make it worthwhile in the long run.Read full review

basic clock radio that is not a total POS

This is exactly the kind of device I wanted to replace a very shoddy generic radio that was having all kinds of problems related to very poor QC. It's a tastefully understated electronic device from a respected--if no longer venerated--electronics manufacturer.

So how does the Sony stack up? User interface isn't all that bad, display has three luminosity settings (amber color is optimum for minimizing sleep/melatonin disruption, BTW,) audio is "clock-radio quality" aka pretty bad...but it works as advertised. No timekeeping errors noted as yet. Not bad, I just hope it holds up.

Small in size but packed with features

This alarm clock radio has all the features I need. Its compact size is ideal on my bedside table while its time display is large and clear. It offers AM and FM bands with a conveniently placed on/off button which can also control the length of time the radio will play. Volume is easy to adjust. All this with a built in alarm and battery backup. I am very pleased with this purchase!

Bonus feature: Dimmer setting

I really like this alarm clock. Large numbers make it easy to read at night without my glasses on. And the best feature is that it has a dimmer feature that you can change to make the display super-dim, which is great for nighttime.Read full review

Great value!

I use this in my bathroom while taking a shower. The only reason I didn't rate it 5 stars is that the radio tuning is not digital. Tuning is analog and is a little difficult but the radio itself seems to be perfect. The price was great and it fills my requirements.Read full review

Sony ICFC1 Alarm Clock Radio,black

The alarm clock designed functions the beeping sound noises it making are very low not loud at all,if you’re a heavy sleeper the low beeping noises sound not going to wake you up and it only lasted 1min. you must set the alarm settings to radio to wake up or you’ll sleep through it.The clock backup battery functions it uses a lithium button battery which it is great,but the alarm clock designed doesn’t have any functions to telling you the lithium button battery it still good or not until the power outages happens to you,than that only way you’ll ever will find out the lithium button battery backup it is still good or not.Read full review

worth the $ just takes patience

It has many features that I like,but some are difficult to use.Too many buttons and you can hardly find a place to pick it up without pressing one of these buttons.
