Customer Reviews of Kng 028616 Mater Alarm Clock Radio
Controls and display are designed poorly So many things are wrong with this thing. Most have been mentioned before. <
>* Some control switches are on the BACK! <
>* The buttons are iffy when they work. <
>* The buttons are labeled poorly. <
>* Nothing makes sense. <
>* The manual is both useless and necessary. <
>* I had to hit the 'Reset' button a couple if times to have the thing accept new entries. ?? <

>Hopefully the previous reviewer looks are my review because I can help him out about the 'alarm' going off every hour. For the past month I actually had not powered the thing because of the same problem and I couldn't find the 'manual'. That isn't the 'Alarm' going off every hour, it is actually the 'Chime'. Certainly sounds like the alarm though, HA, what do I know. From the manual: <
> <
>"Pressing the 'MODE/ALARM OFF' during the normal display will enter the alarm mode setting. ("AL" will be displayed on the LCD panel) Pressing 'SET' will cause the following sequence: Alarm off & Chime off ** -> Alarm on & Chime on -> Alarm off & Chime on -> go back to **: (Alarm and chime icon will show on the LCD panel)" <
> <
>The reason I am out on the internet looking for information about this stupid thing is that I can't tell which icon is 'Chime' and which is 'Alarm'. Dollars to donuts it is going to wake up my son at 9:00. :-( But then I will know.
Poor design
This clock-radio looked like a good idea, but after receiving it and setting it up, that idea quickly faded. First, there is no radio tuning knob, only a button that scans through the FM dial with no indication what the frequency is. Second, setting the clock is an exercise in non-intuitive design as the buttons are not labeled logically. Third, the switch to turn the radio on and off, the switch for alarm radio/alarm sound, and the switch to change Mater's phrases are all on the back of the clock-radio. Even with all these issues, I would have tolerated them (because my son did enjoy it), but ended up returning it because the time display was failing (some clock digit segments were disappearing).
Great clock, if it would STOP TALKING!!
Okay, it's a great looking clock and it's funny!

>'Wake up sleeping beauty'!, in Mater's voice. HA.

>Unfortunately, though it is set for 9AM, it goes off every HOUR.
