Timex T309T Alarm Clock Radio with Nature Sounds (Titanium) Reviews
It is the most frustrating clock radio I have ever dealt with. It is definitely not user friendly. I purchased this item when my old clock radio died and Timex was the only version available (on that day). I cannot find the owner's manual, and cannot turn off the alarm short of unplugging it and removing it's battery.
This clock radio has some nice features (waking to CD, pleasant LCD, separate weekday/weekend alarms, nature sounds, etc). BUT these are only good it if works. The CD player stopped working after about a year, the radio reception is poor, the clock always ran slow and had to be reset about every 2 months, and my unit just completely died one night after about 6 years of use. I wouldn't buy this again even though I liked the features.
Good nature sounds replicated. I thought that I was buying the same thing for my daughter. No CD player. Ugh. The display doesn't go dim enough, but it's small and tidy, doesn't take up much space. I have the deluxe model which has been discontinued and LOVE it. Decent sound.
So, you have to sit up, essentially to check the time or raise up on your elbow. Also, the angle of the face of the clock is such that in order to read the numbers you have to be higher than the clock. Just to see what time it was. Once you are up, you realize that you could use a little snack and maybe a soda or something. Just enough activity to wake you up.
If your bedside table is higher than the bed you probably will be looking at a plain, grey light if you should need to check the time in the middle of the night. The sound effects are good except that the same bird sings the same notes every 10 seconds ,or less, forever. By this time you have been up for 20 minutes or so and now you are wide awake. Then you have to pee. They need to eliminate the bird or do more than one bird on each bird inhabited sound.
Sigh Then you lie down and, low and behold, you get heartburn.and so it goes.
Its not really worth the money. I bought this not too long ago and it only worked for a month and after that month it started making a humming sound out of the speakers.
