Digital camera reviews of Emerson CKS3516 SmartSet Dual-Alarm Clock Radio with Time Projection System
Digital camera Review: Fantastic Product!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this and have given as a gift many times. NO PROBLEMS, we did have a power surge and time got stuck but I called customer service and they told me how to reset clock and it worked fine. This is wonderful you look up at ceiling and can see time. Resets itself during a power outage, daylight savings time, I have had one for YEARS and YEARS now, gave one to son last christmas he wants another for his living room this year. Gave as gifts and people still come up to me to tell me how much they love this item. Not cheap looking like some in stores.
Dont be afraid to try and if you have a problem their customer service will help you!!

love my new projection clock, numbers are nice and big so I can see them on my wall at night. it's also easy to use the other features practicely without reading the instruction it's that easy to use.Digital camera Review: Five Stars? Yeah This Clock Radio Really Deserves It
Summary: 5 Stars
It might seem ingenuous to give an item five stars, I mean is anything THAT good? Well I've got to say that this clock radio is that good. You plug it in, tell it what time zone you're in and it sets itself. When we lose the electricity (fairly often in the spring), there is no more blinking "12:00" when the power comes back - the clock just resets itself. The fact that I can set one alarm time for weekdays and a different one for the weekend is perfect too. It is literally a "set it and forget it" clock.Digital camera Review: GREAT EXPEXTATIONS
Summary: 5 Stars
This product is just as it was expected to be. Enjoy the fact that dual alarms can be set to radio, not like some other dual alarm clock radios. Would recommend this itme to anyone that is looking for a dual alarm clock radio.Digital camera Review: Good Alarm, at a Great Price.
Summary: 5 Stars
I spent many hours reviewing projection clock/radios on amazon and newegg. The problems i saw everywhere, regaurdless of the price of the units were: the projection isnt bright enough, the alarm is not loud enough, and the alarm doesnt have the right settings. This to me means that the price of the unit will not improve these problems for various reasons. I also do not need the extra features like the outdoor temp or the weekly forecast(which seem not to work most of the time anyways). So i chose to find a clock that only had what i needed: TIME, ALARM, RADIO, AND PROJECTION. So i set out to find the most solid, simple, and best priced unit that had all these features. I ended up finding this unit. Not the most attractive, not the most Hi-tech, but it seems the most reliable and had decent reviews all around.
THE PROJECTION on this clock works fine, you can start to see it once dusk comes, but does not become clear until the TV or Computer Monitor in the room is turned off for the night. It will remain clear on your wall or ceiling until about 8AM or so, unless you have dark or thick curtains do completely cover your windows. It swivels 180 degrees, and has a manual focus to help make sure the time is clearly projected. No complaints with this feature.
THE ALARM starts very very silent and then crescendos. If you are already awake, you will first ask yourself if you really heard it it is so quiet. It then slowly, crescendos to a good decently loud tone, it can definitely wake me any day of the week, and i need a loud alarm to wake up. If this is still not loud enough for you, the radio alarm can be set at whatever volume you left it at. Also, it has 2 alarms, one for Mon-Fri, and one for the weekend which can be set for different times. I like this feature, but wish it would let me alternate days, ie. Mon, Wed, Fri. Otherwise, no complaints here.
THE RADIO works fine. Although i wouldnt mind it being digital, the knob seems sensitive enough and finds all of my radio stations fine. The speakers are decent, nothing special, but dont distort until the radio is louder than you would ever play it on a simple clock/radio.
THE AUTO TIME SET wasnt correct when i got it, but this didnt matter. It sets in about 15 seconds, then i adjusted it a few minutes and that was that. When i had to unplug it to move it, it came back to the adjusted time which was pleasant. The Day and Time were correct though.
OVERALL im very pleased. unit works well, and i recieved a silver one.. which actually looks much better than the aqua colored one pictured. Tt seems solid, not too large, with good features. Id say it packs about the most reliable punch for its price. If you dont like alot of light in your room at night, the time screen may be a bit bright for you even when its dummed.
