Great Product

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I've owned a few travel alarm clocks and this is the best. All the analog ones had a loud ticking second hand. Some had snooze buttons that required turning on lights to find. Hit the snooze button at any time and the display lights up. No weirdly placed button for that either. The temperature reading was very useful when tent camping. On top of performance it folds down very slim. I would highly recommend this clock to anyone.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I really love this clock, to read the time, the temperature in my room/dorm, to set the alarm (the alarm works really well, I wake up every time), to check the date, etc etc. I've bought countless other clocks and always return to this one. My only complaint is how flimsy it is. Both of its legs have broken off so I can't stand it up anymore. That's just probably because I've been careless and have dropped it numerous times.

It's easy to set up and it lasts a long time if you take care of it. I wouldn't recommend any other clock/alarm clock.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Always travel with clock - never fails (unless I fail to set). Only problem is the flip stand has come apart & requires "clicking back" in. Still use on all travels.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

To either view or set the alarm the back cover must be removed.

to use in travel and in my room

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Use of standard barreries is a plus. Seems to be well made.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

To set the alarm time, you have to remove the battery cover. To even check what time the alarm is set for, you have to remove the battery covery. To do ANYTHING, you have to remove the battery cover. Whoever designed this thing obviously doesnt travel much!

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I purchased this alarm for travel, and it worked well. The only hithc is that you must remove the back cover to change the time, date, and alarm time. Otherwise it does what it supposed to do.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Having time and ambient temperature at easy glance makes this small clock very handy. Good travel size tool.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I bought this clock for my 6th grader so he could get up when he needs to and it is easy for him to use. Loud enough to wake up but not too loud to wake up the rest of the family.

Used for business travel

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

This clock is an excellent gift idea! Easy to read and does not make a jarring sound to wake you up! Folds up for travel and sits neatly on a side table. Great buy!

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I use it for an everyday alarm. The only thing I don't like about it is it is not easy to turn the alarm off if you want to shut it off early.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

It is a pain to change the time for the alarm.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

easy to see at night, convenient to carry, it wakes me up every morning

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I have trouble waking up in the morning,and especially when I travel. This travel alarm clock is really cool and it gets me up, which speaks volumes about its design. It works as well as larger alarm clocks that cost far more.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Bought for travel, but use on a daily basis.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I used to own one of these several years ago, and ended up losing it. I finally bought another, and am so glad I did. I love that the date, day, temp, time and alarm are all squeezed into this attractive, compact package. The alarm is easy to set, it's loud enough to wake a sound sleeper, and has a back-light to use in the dark. My only issue is that it only lets me snooze for 5 minutes before going off again! Small issue for such a good product.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Please help

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

easy to read

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I was specifically looking for something that would be easy to read at night when I am traveling and the size and backlight with this display screen really fit that need.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

1) Would be better if it automatically backlit at night

2) I assume temperature is accurate, but sometimes I wonder...

I use this in the baby's room.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I love how compact this travel alarm is and how easy it is to use. And its smart looking on anyone's bedroom table.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Somewhat difficult to read the numbers in daylight.
Liked the light flash when alarm goes off. Great idea.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

This is the second clock of this kind that I have purchased. It is great. I love seeing the temperature.

The case broke on my first clock, otherwise I'm very happy with it.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

This travel clock is exactly that - a TRAVEL clock - I have purchased "travel clocks" in the past to use on my nightstand but this one is better used to take on trips, in my opinion. It's small, light and folds up to protect it while traveling. The controls aren't that easy to set but they are the way they are, I'm guessing, so that you can't change the time accidentally. It works perfectly and you can see it at night with the touch of a simple button. =) I just wish it had a big brother I could have on my nightstand - the one that is similar only has the option to hit snooze 3 times (and frankly I need it more than that on occasion. ;)

It was easy to use.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I bought this clock years ago and it still works GREAT. I really like the temperature feature for travel so I know just how hot or cold my hotel room is. I DO NOT LIKE the fact that the back has to be removed to set the alarm and time. Wouldn't be so bad for just the time because you only change that occasionally - but if you want to set your alarm for a different time each night it is inconvenient. You cannot check what time the alarm is set for without also removing the back. I would love to find this clock with a front time/alarm change feature. I would buy a new one in a heartbeat with that feature - I would even pay more for it! Thus, I travel with two alarms, this one for the temperature feature and another for the ease of changing the alarm time. They are both small so I manage.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I like this better than using a hotel clock.It's hard shell protects it when traveling. I also like the temperature reading since many hotels don't show you the temperature on the thermostats.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Very sleek design - only complaint would be having to open battery case to set time - but everything else on clock is just as I would like.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Used this on a vacation - like it because it can easily fit into a purse or bag, and yet display is big enough to set it up as a room clock - really, have no complaints!

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I did quite a bit of shopping for a small encased travel clock - and this one fit the bill! However to set the alarm, the back panel which houses the batteries needs to be removed which is somewhat cumbersome.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

This is a nice and compact travel clock with all the features you need.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

To set the clock you have to remove the back which is a pain each time. I like the size and I like how it looks visually but it isn't loud enough for me. Not a fan of the way it sounds.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I like the compact design and the fact that the cover is also the stand. However I was disappointed when it arrived and I found that it was all plastic. From the picture it appears to be a quality travel clock made of metal. Description did not specify.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I like the product. This is an addition to one that I have and still use. 1 is for my briefcase, 1 for luggage. Overkill but so what.
It does a good job, is accurate and the temp is a nice feature.
I would buy another one if I lose 1.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

The instructions are a bit confusing, making it difficult to set.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I bought this as a gift & my husband loves it. It's small enough to fit in his toiletry bag and totally reliable. Great purchase.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Keep it on the headboard and take with me when traveling

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Excellent size and features for traveling but also great to use as a backup to your regular alarm....just in case the power goes out!

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Have already used clock, it is the best I have seen or used. Thanks Brookstone.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Small and compact enough to travel with. Perfect enought to sit on your nightstand. Folds easily and "stores" if you don't want it sitting out when guests come over. Love the slim small design.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I purchased this clock as a gift for a friend who travels a great deal. He was hooked after the first use and has purchased several for his colleagues! It is easy to set, can actually be read and heard, is acurate and reliable, and travels well. My friend also says the temperature feature was a very nice (and useful) surprise. So glad I chose this clock!

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

The biggest problem is that there is nothing on the display that says what hour alarm is set for (or I missed it)

Also, from the pictures I thought it was aluminum

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

The numbers on the clock face are easy to read. Unfortunately there are two problems. First, setting the alarm time is very annoying. You must remove the cover before moving the slide control and pressing buttons. The more serious problem is, even if you hit the light at night, the clock face is invisible if you are anywhere above the clock. It's as if the display is upside down or the visible angle is much too small.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I have had this clock for years. [...]. I have taken it all over the world; it is ALWAYS at my bedside. Sometimes I use it as a nightlight when walking across the room (hotels). It is EASY to set up for yourself; I use the military time because I'm in the military and just used to it. Last year, my child lost the battery cover- the clock still works great without it. I really like knowing what the temperature is in the room. Can't live without it.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

Easy to read and compact on trip.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I bought this for my mother who, since retiring, doesn't always know the day or date! Easy to use and a great item -- even for young people who just travel a lot.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

THIS PRODUCT IS USEFUL ON TRIPS

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

I have used this all over the world. Has very long battery life. Tells you the temperature in your room or outside your room. Small, handy, easy to use. No light on at night to burn batteries. Just click on top and it tells you the time. Love it.

Comments about Bright Backlight Travel Alarm Clock With Temperature:

This alarm clock is simply the best there ever was! I have owed it now for about 3 months, and am ver satisfied.

Features:

Bright Blue Backlight: The backlight is as bright as the blue sky. I have never had any hardships with it, and was able to see the time in the middle of the night.

Thermometer: Although not very accurate the thermometer has proven worthy of my time. It was nothing but a lifesaver during the summer heat since I was able to track the temp. in my room. You can select Farenheit or Centegrade. I personally go with Farenheit. I do have a problem with the thermometer since it rises very quickly in some cases, and even when I'm setting the clock.

Alarm with 5min. snooze bar: I simply LOVE this alarm. It's a nice loud beep alarm as opposed to the quiet ones on most travel alarms. The snooze and backlight button is right on top so I can hit it in the morning with my eyes closed. The alarm has a slide switch labeled SNOOZE/ALARM ON/ALARM OFF. When you do turn on the alarm you see an alarm symbol, and a snooze(ZZ) symbol.

To set the clock you must remove the battery compartment cover. There is a side switch and four buttons used to set it. I personally wish the alarm time was displayed or there was a quick way to see it, but since my alarm goes off at the same time every morning(6:15 AM) then that's no problem for me. The digital clock itself can be in 12 Hour or Military mode(24 Hour). I use the 24 Hour mode since I don't have to worry about AM or PM in that mode.

The clock runs on one AAA battery which in one word is GREAT. I've seen these kinds of alarm clocks that required 2 AAA batteries or 3 AA batteries, but this one is great. I still haven't had to replace the battery which is yet another plus.
