I buy this clock because it be cheap , and realize the issue below : - do not have a indication on the main screen of what the alarm time be set to . you need to press a button and go back a forth to see that infomation . - beep everytime you press a button , so it disturb a partner if you be try to check the time during the night . - in the dark , very easy to screwup the time setting by press the wrong button -lrb- lower leave one -rrb- , that change the time zone . - do not have a easy to access light or alarm off button , to be access in the dark . I 'll have to be back shop for a better clock and spebd few more buck .
