Sony ICF-C492 Large Display AM/FM Clock Radio

I like a radio I can see in the middle of the night without my glasses on; the numbers on this radio are huge. It is also a simple clock with few buttons to hit and no wasted options. Great buy.

My wife is very pleased with the alarm clock radio.

Nice product, fine service.

Why, in this day and age, would Sony create a device like that that clocks from the AC phase? I wanted a simple clock with bright display and battery backup. I'm using it in Japan with 50Hz mains, and of course the darn thing is losing huge amounts of time. I expect the clock from mains phase is why it is keeping such bad time for other reviewers too.

I do not recommend this product.

She loves it!

My daughter really likes the large green-number display, the thin/tall size, and the ease with which she can set the time and alarm. It can set two separate alarms (radio and buzzer), which will be helpful come school time. And the radio does manage to pull in the "right" radio stations.

My daughter's only complaint: the case doesn't come in a Green color.

I bought this product as a gift for my mother. I loved it and I will buy one for me.
