this be a well design clock that perform very well as advertise . there be a simplicity to it that make it very easy to use . the set it and forget it be a very nice feature . have say all this I prefer another model they make that have green numeral and a dim switch , as the above model with red numeral be quite bright , although very easy to read at night . the green numeral clock do not have the set and forget feature . the green numeral clock also do not have the blinking second dot which annoy some people with the red numeral clock . all in all both clock be very good and easy to read at night .
