DreamSkyDeluxe Alarm Clock Radio with FM Radio, USB Port for Charging, 1.2 Inch Display with Dimmer, Temperature Display, Snooze, Adjustable Alarm Volume, Sleep Timer.

If you looked around like I did, you found a hundred different clock-radios to choose from. Which one? Well, I hope I can help you a little bit, by pointing out the pros and cons. Keep in mind that I didn't want to pay more than $25. So, here's the review.PROS ...1. This is a big one - the display has a continuous dimmer!!! It's terrific to be able to dial down the brightness to nothing. If you share a bedroom, you can set this up to be just barely visible to you, and nobody else. On the other hand, you can make it as bright as you want. I absolutely love this feature!2. The orange display is definitely the one to get. I personally like blue a bit better, but with all the noise about "blue light" keeping you awake, why mess around when you can get orange? And I'm happy to say, the orange looks absolutely great. Sharp/clear and easy to see. I now wish more appliances had an "orange" option. You can even make the clock display military [24:00] time.3. Radio is easy to use and tune. FM only, which is fine, so you don't have any static. I don't miss AM one bit. Although if you're more than 50 miles from a city, this might not work for you. It still has an alarm buzzer, if there is no FM station nearby.4. Alarm is easy to set, and volume gradually increases over a few seconds to whatever level you set.5. Volume is set in 16 digital steps. Step 00 is no sound, step 15 is the loudest. Note that the volume for the alarm buzzer, the alarm radio, and the FM radio for listening are all SEPARATELY SET. Each one can have a different volume! As an aside, I bought this to replace a clock-radio with a volume knob that went bad. It would never work at exactly the volume I wanted (I guess it got dirty over time, so it was either too soft or too loud, and always scratchy when changing it). You will never have that problem with this radio, since the volume is set digitally, in steps.6. The OFF button for the alarm/radio is - any button you like, as long as you don't press SNOOZE! But even if you hit the big SNOOZE button by mistake, you only have to press any other button to stop the snooze function and turn off the alarm. Genius!!!CONS ...Small point - it has three AAA batteries to maintain functions even when the power goes off. BUT they never tell you how long the batteries will last.All in all, it's small, it's certainly loud enough, and the display very clear. It's easy to use. Although you should still read the manual - I didn't do that at first, and missed a couple of great features! It has battery backup, an accurate temperature display (one reviewer said theirs read four degrees hot, but I find that mine is exactly right, and changes if I put my hand near it for any length of time - it's sensitive!). Finally, a USB charging port. The price is great for what you get. I'll keep mine and highly recommend that you buy one too!

I tried out other clock radio's and this one is the best. The dimmer can be adjusted all the way down to the point where it can't be seen. Other clocks have low, medium and high which might as well as be called night lights. The alarm radio volume can be set to level 1 which is barely audible. I have mine set to level 2. The alarm is a gradual volume type so it'll start at level 1 and increase to 2 on my setting ( radio, not buzzer ). Perfect!!! Other clocks all have a loud level one. I found the color of the display light which is orange/yellow much more soothing on the eyes when compared to blue/red versions. The display numbers are a BOLD version which makes it easy to see from a distance. The clock is compact which saves space on my night table. The clocks buttons are not as multi-purpose when compared to other clock radio's, so this makes it easier to learn and navigate. The one button hit to shut the alarm off is a bonus too. Another great feature is that the alarm setting display is also visible in the lower bottom right corner. Love this clock. The price is more which is the only drawback, but it's worth it. As far as durability, I only had it for a week so far. I'll update in the future if needed.

Easy to use. Has all the features that you would need.

Simple, stylish, easy to set up, compact but not tiny, large amber numerals . . . Whadda Great Clock Radio. I am so pleased! What’s not to love about this clock radio. And, there’s a meaningful dimmer dial rather than two choices: Bright and Blinding. This clock radio can be dimmer so as not to interrupt sleep. In other words, you don’t have to deal with light through your Closed Eyelids!!! Thank you Amazon for this really economically priced item, plus fast deliver!!!

Christmas gift for my granddaughter. It appears to be just what I was looking for, but I have not actually set the clock up or used it’s features.
