Customer Reviews of Equity Time USA Atomic Clock with Projector (31700)

Great clock idea, poorly executed.
I bought this clock with the hopes that I would have an accurate clock and be able to see the time at night. Initial setup was difficult due to multiple steps and set buttons that are too small. If you're extremely nearsighted like me, the clock time numbers projected on the ceiling will be too small to see. Finally, the clock face is backlit, but ONLY if you depress the backlight button, then the backlight illuminates for about 2 seconds. Unfortunately, if you need the backlight, the tiny button is too small to find in the dark. This might be a good clock for a traveler - it is relatively compact and lightweight, and was clearly designed to be used with batteries. (The AC adapter is included, but almost appears to be an afterthought). I returned this clock for refund, and am looking for a better clock of the same sort.

Interesting and Innovative
I just purchased this clock and set it up in my bedroom. I really like the way it projects the time on the wall or on the ceiling. This is especially useful when you want to know what time it is in the middle of the night and the clock is several feet away, and you're nearsighted. No more squinting to try and figure out what time it is. You can easily vary the size and angle of the projection to suit your needs. I also like the fact that it adjusts itself to the correct time. It would be nice, however, if the set up were a bit more simple and intuitive (25-page manual), and if the buttons were larger, although it has a fairly large snooze button. Also, the price is a bit steep for an alarm clock without a radio.
