Highly flawed -- buy at your own risk:
This clock looks great, but don't let that deceive you: this is a highly flawed, shoddily-built product which you buy at your own risk. Within a year of purchase, here are the problems I've experienced: - Out of the box, the clock produces an intermittent crackling noise even when the radio is off.

That's pretty shoddy manufacturing, especially considering our previous clock radio (Panasonic) lasted for 15 years before the time set buttons fell off. We are buying a new clock to replace the RCA.
So Bright it Keeps You Awa e & Then the Buttons Will Break:
This alarm clock had everything we needed: Dual alarms, big numbers, auto clock set, and digital am/fm tuner. But it also has two major flaws:

The low setting made us feel like someone was shining a light in our window. We thought we would get use to it but never did. My wife has gone to putting a card over it to block the light. 2. The buttons that turn... more info
cant hear:
the way the speaker is in the unit in order to hear the radio clearly you have to face the back of the radio. after 4 months of ownership the loudness control went bad( it is either blasting very loud or so soft you can bearly hear it).
