Alarm Clock Radio, AKASO Digital Alarm Clock (K1-Black)

Nice. Compact. Very small footprint on my night stand. Worked perfectly this a.m. Did not set all the pre-set stations... just need one 24-hour station to get me up. All the multi-function buttons can be daunting, but the instructions were pretty clear, and I got it operating in quick time. Comes with two cables I cannot figure out... one cute one is pink and has USB connectors on both ends (neatly protected by removable smoked plastic domes), and one that looks like a headphone cable except it has plugs on both ends. These don't seem related to the function of the radio. Radio is very light weight, but has small soft cushions underneath that keep it in one place on the night stand. Glad I bought this one! Display is crisp and clear, has a temperature display that seems mostly credible, and the speaker/sound is more than adequate. After 6 weeks, the clock has maybe gained 30 seconds, so I'd rank the timekeeping accuracy as very good. Overall operation continues to be flawless. After more than a month... needed to set the second alarm function and used the instruction book. No problem, works perfectly, and reminded me how easy it is to set/reset the brightness of the digital readout. Sounds like I'm obsessed, but when I find a product that delivers so well at such a reasonable price, I am a bit over-the-top.

So I am not an technological idiot (advanced degrees and handle my imaging server), but I could never get this clock to function properly out of the box. I read the directions carefully and either the directions are not complete or the clock was defective. Also to set anything on the clock is incredibly complicated. Too bad because it has the USB ports and the functionality I would want and it is a nice size for my nightstand. I could never get it to dim to an acceptable level or to change radio stations. Buy at your own risk.

I wanted a clock radio that would let me play music all night, have presets and battery backup, and was simple to use. This little radio is pretty cool - it's nice and compact, the music sounds great, it has presets and battery backup. My only complaint is that it isn't easy to program in the radio stations and add them to presets. It chooses what to add based on it's scan. The problem is we live in the country and many stations don't come in perfectly so it skips them by. It won't just let me manually scan or add them in. Going to have to play with it so I can get a station I actually want. Still pretty impressed.

I must say I made the right choice. This cute alarm clock does exactly what I need. It is very well made and of high quality at a good price. It is super easy to set up following the instructions. It has a big display and the number on the clock is easy to read from different angles. The rotary dial works smoothly to set the time and alarm. I also like the dim settings of the light so it's not so bright at night. I don't have a USB charging stand, so this clock serves as my charging ports (2 USB outlets) for my phone and watch. It even comes with a charging cable! Oh, the temperature it indicates seems accurate, although I don't care that much. All together, a nearly perfect device with great features!

Seller sent me two new Radio Alarm Clocks to replace the original nonfunctioning units. The new units appear better made and more importantly the radio part actually works now. While the overall design needs an improvement of design, the product actually works now. I believe the design still needs improvement to better select the functions. The radio functions by scanning all available stations and listing them 1 - however many you have. You then tune into the radio by selecting that preset number. Not the most fun way to tune in a station, especially when the buttons are small and hidden in the back. At least there is a forward and backward button, so you don't have to worry about shooting past the station you want. I thank the Seller for setting up to negative feedback. The alarm clock is useful if you are looking for a small basic radio and don't intend on changing the station much. Original review below: Poor quality and most importantly the radio function does not work. Bought two for my boys. Overall the look is decent and small. The clock works, however, the controls are not intuitive and difficult to use. The radio works on one of the two, but it the signal is poor (even with the AUX cable plugged in that is supposed to act as the antenna). Forget about changing the channel, too much of a pain and doesn't get a lot of stations. The USB charger works, but the supplied cable is poor. Can't comment on the alarm since we haven't used it yet - but not looking forward to trying. Would NOT buy again. I now have to buy a radio for both my kids. Total waste of money.

This is a surprisingly cool little clock radio. And I underscore the word "little." It takes up very little real estate on my nightstand which is great. But the main feature I like most is the five-stage dimmer. I'm one of those who HATES bright digital alarm clocks glaring at me from 18" away all night. This thing has a large top dial that you tap to select any of five levels of brightness from off completely to super bright. I prefer #2, the lowest possible setting that is visible. I also love the fact that I can now charge my iPhone handily with one of the two built-in USB ports. Another works for iPad/tablets and since this unit is so small there's more room for these devices on my nightstand. Though I didn't use them, the package also included a bright pink USB>iPhone charging cord (which can convert to non-lightning connections too) AND a flex-USB nightlight! Oh, the clock also has a small temperature read-out in the top RH corner.

Bought this for a gift and before it arrived I received an email with directions on how to set it. Forwarded that to the recipient. Then she called and said she could not get any station to come in. I am sending it back but first tried to see if it was just her location or if it would work at my house. I was not able to get any reception either. Too bad as it is a cute little radio with a lot of good features.

forget the brand for mement, just in case new to USA n not heard. I bet, you would love d product when you unbox n start operating functionalities. It's awesome,din expect the quality to be mind blowing. Reasons could b I was finding the right product (with FM, Alarm, USB, AC power supply as well as battery backup). Few things made me happier n surprised: 1. QR code with video link as guide 2. Quality of product 3. Specific as promised on site 4. USB cable plug for ios/ non-ios; made me crazy on their caringness for users 5. FM tune n can memories up to 35 channels 6. Last but not d least, boxed structure too much better, although doesn't matter post unbox. Totally enjoyed while unboxing and especially radio feature and quality. I'd suggest this, if u're looking for product with this features..even if just radio or clock. Give it a try even if u have placed order for similar one(happens for some)and am sure you would return the received and retain this.
