Digital camera Review: Emerson SmartSet Alarm Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased the Emerson CKS3088T SmartSet Dueal-Alarm Clock Radio because my son has an Emerson SmartSet clock, which is a different version and it is GREAT. If we have to unplug it for any reason, it automatically sets the time for you. The other Emerson automatically detects your time zone, this clock has to be "told" which time zone you are located. Either way, it is easy, you can see the time in the dark, and it play radio if that is your method of alarm or just for listening.
Digital camera Review: Great Alarm Clock, Easy to Use, Lamp Control a Big Plus Summary: 5 Stars
Great Alarm Clock: Has all the standard features you would expect in an alarm clock. Being able to select which days for each of the 2 alarms is a nice feature. The big display is easy to read at night without wearing my glasses. Form factor is nice. Unlike a previous reviewer, I've had no problems with the radio.
Easy to Use: Sets itself the first time, 2 Alarms Easy to Set Up. It has heat/motion sensor so you don't have to touch a snooze button, just wave your hand in front of the clock face and you're in snooze mode.
Lamp Control: Plug in any lamp up to 150 W (no fluorescent bulbs). The lamp control button dims the lamp bulb up or down. The button is big, so you can find it half asleep and you don't have to "push down" on the button to get it to work. The lightest touch is all that is needed.
Overall, this clock was much better than I expected. Lot's of thoughtful touches were put into the design of this alarm clock. I'm thinking about getting another one for my guest bedroom.
Digital camera Review: Great Clock - Terrible Radio Summary: 2 Stars
I've had this clock radio for several years. If you want to self setting clock, buy it. If you want a descent clock radio, keep looking. The self setting clock is fantastic and the dual alarm feature is nice. However the radio is absolutely terrible. It is difficult to tune because the tuning knob is tiny and it is impossible to to see the few station frequency numbers that are printed in tiny numbers on the dial. So you have to guess what station it is on and wait for the station to say its call letters. For some reason the radio will not stay in tune, so every two or three days I have to re tune it. The latest issue is the volume control which is cutting in and out so it is about to go.
Life it too short to use something so aggravating so I'm going to replace this with a Sangean WR-2.
Also, the sound quality of the Emerson is poor, but I expected that.
