Hudson Everything Bedroom Digital Alarm Clock

Not easy to set mode.

I find the little button labels hard to read, but I'll eventually get used to them. Alarm is nice and loud.

I had another Seiko digital clock for 15+ years, and I finally had to retire it, so I went looking for an updated model. While there was nothing quite like my old beloved clock, this was the closest. My wishlist: -- Time display as the main focus -- Date -- Day of week -- Temperature -- Under 6" wide -- Touch-activated backlight It sounded simple, but there were almost no models on the market that met these specifications that weren't a folding-style travel alarm clock. This was pretty much THE ONE. Given my very positive previous experience with the brand, I took a gamble on it despite the low rating. I'm so glad I did! It's exactly what I wanted. Great size, looks slick. And, bonus, the backlight is a great amber/orange color compared to the bright blue in from my old clock, so this is perfect in my mind. In fact, I like it so much that I'm buying two more to go in other parts of the house. IMO, the low ratings for this clock are wholly unjustified. I didn't have any difficult programming it, and the subtle display is exactly what I want. Granted, if you want bright numbers you can read from across the room, this is not the clock for you, but for those looking for a compact bedroom or bathroom clock, look no further.

Muy buen reloj, es lo que esperaba

My first Seiko alarm wss a gift over 28 years ago. It had been in use everyday since then and traveled the world with me. Great clock and the alarm is sure to wake you!!!
