Tools and Hardware Reviews of Elgin Travel Alarm Clock
Customer Review: Great Little Alarm Clock
Summary: 5 Stars
Nice, uncomplicated, functional travel alarm clock. First of all, the package was EASY to open -- doesn't require a hacksaw and axe, like most packages do these days. Secondly, the instructions were written in CLEAR ENGLISH -- not weird unintelligible international symbols and directions in ten different languages with the English being butchered beyond comprehension. And thirdly, the clock is simple to set up and operate. Very user-friendly. Does what it says it's going to do. Alarm starts off softly then gets more frantic as seconds tick by and you haven't turned it off -- perfect for my waking-up habits. It's the right size -- very compact -- has a nice big display, big snooze button -- all in all, about as perfect as a product can be. My compliments to Elgin.Customer Review: Timex Digital Travel Alarm Clock with Indiglo night light.
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this clock for myself as a replacement. I gave mine to my niece as a gift with other travel inspired
items, but only after I confirmed that I coud purchase another one on Amazon. I love it. I use it every day
and night both at home and on trips. It is lightweight, accurate and easy to see. And when you wake up in the middle of the night and want to know the time, the INDIGLO feature on the Timex is terrific. No need to turn on a light. The Timex requires one AAA battery. The battery should last a long time and is easily
accessible for replacement. The Timex base folds over the screen and is perfect for travel. I not only would
order the Timex Indiglo Travel Alarm again, I already have.

Customer Review: Works and is affordable
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm studying abroad in France, and needed a very handy, light, alarm clock that worked properly. It arrived in the time, I was told it was going to arrive, and came with easy, straight-forward instructions. At first, I was a little worried because I'm a very heavy sleeper, and need a an alarm clock whose alarm can accommodate that. On a test run, the alarm seemed too weak, however, when I actually set it to wake me up one morning, the alarm worked fine. I woke up. It's been a month now, and it still wakes me up just fine and it shows no sign of breaking. Overall, I'm happy with this alarm clock.
Also, let's not forget, times are rough these days, especially for a student financially. This alarm clock is a cheap, great buy.
Customer Review: Perfect for my needs, a bargain
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't need a fancy clock radio with displays of what time it is all over the planet or a CD player. I just need the simplest possible alarm clock that works, and which I can take with me anywhere. This alarm clock fits that bill perfectly and is cheap to buy.
Setting the alarm couldn't be easier, although it is hard to make sure you have moved the slider to the correct position because if you have big thumbs like me, your thumbs cover the writing. Setting the time similarly, couldn't be easier. Bouncing around in my backpack hasn't harmed it, the alarm is nice and loud and appropriately annoying, and it even has a snooze.
Damn near a perfect product because it does what you want for a low price.
Customer Review: Piece of crap
Summary: 1 Stars
This is the second time I buy an alarm clock from Amazon (I love Amazon, don't get me wrong, I really in the hundreds of things i have ordered, only had problems on a few occasions, and they always rectify it) that is garbage. I was desperately looking for something NOT made in China, which is pretty impossible. The first time I let it go... but because the first one i ordered is not reliable, because some times it doesn't go off, and I desperately need to wake up very early in the AM for training, as I am an athlete, So i bought this crappy one as back up. It doesn;t work. I have tried 8 sets of brand new batteries, i can BARELY read the time on it, it doesn't lit up, the alarm doesn't go off... don't buy this garbage!!!
