AcuRite13027A Intelli-Time Digital Alarm Clock,Black

The AcuRite 13027A Intelli-Time Digital Alarm Clock is a solid choice for those who prefer a straightforward and reliable alarm clock. While it may lack some advanced features, its ease of use, accuracy, and reasonable price make it a recommended option for users looking for a basic digital alarm clock. It offers good value for users seeking a reliable digital alarm clock without many bells and whistles. The build quality suggests good durability, and the clock has proven resilient to everyday use. However, like any electronic device, it should be handled with care. The clock performs its primary function of waking you up reliably. The Intelli-Time feature eliminates the need for manual time adjustments, providing convenience. The alarm sound is clear and moderately loud, suitable for waking up without being overly jarring. However, it lacks a variety of alarm tones.

Easy to use, not complicated, not too bright, nice alarm sound. It takes a 2032 battery, not the AA in the description.

I’ve only had this clock a couple of days now, so there's always a chance I'll provide an update after a couple of weeks.But so far, so very good.I went through endless searching before finding the clock I was looking for. My criteria was…- small, with simple settings (time and alarm set were all I wanted)- electrical with battery backup only- didn’t want the huge 1” digits (I think these are a little more than 1/2”)- snooze feature of 9 minutes (some had only 5 minutes)I absolutely love this clock because it checks all the boxes on my “want” list, with the added bonus being such a unique design, so different from every other model. Although I would have liked to have a USB charging port, it wasn’t a “must have”. The size is a bit more than the 5” wide clock I was replacing, but not by much. It’s about 6” wide x 2.5” tall x 3” deep, and fits perfectly on my night table. Another really handy feature is a “Day Saving Time” switch that can be turned on and set to any one of multiple time zones.

A big yes for this clock. I took it out of the box, plugged it in, and it showed the correct time, to the minute. Set-up took about 30 seconds, quite different from the two hours of sweat labor I put in trying to make the ZHPUAT clock work, only to discover that it was defective. The Accurite has big buttons, clearly marked in a large, neat font, right on top. The time zone and daylight savings time buttons are the only ones on the back, and they were already set correctly for my time zone. Unless you move to a different time zone, you'll never need to reset those. The display is a nice amber color, and is easily adjustable to a brighter or dimmer setting. It comes with directions written in correct English and a readable font size, although you don't really need them. It's a plug-in clock with a battery backup in case of power outages (1 C2032 lithium battery, already installed). It's only 6" long and 3-1/4" deep, and 2" high, but the display is an inch high and 3-1/4" " wide, so easy to see for most even from across the room. Mine is silver and black, not like the goldish one in the picture on the Amazon website, and other reviewers have gotten other colors.

Super easy to use and set up. Alarm isn't super loud but louder than their other model. Really loved not having to set the time and alarm set up super simple. Overall happy with my purchase! And it arrives In store packaging so you know it's not a knock off
