Not to be too critical... the clock works and projects as designed but I question why the projection and the clock are two entirely separate clocks. You set the clock by rotating the bezel (?) and then you have to set the projection clock separately. Two separate clocks?

Another thing I didn't like was that the projection is not bright enough and you cannot rotate the projection. It points forward and up - not left and right. I'd actually like to be able to turn it upside down so that I can see it right side up on my ceiling with the clock itself facing me as well. This is not possible.

Other than that it's not defective. Excepts maybe in the sense that it is deficient in design.

This projection alarm clock barely projects at all.
The image is faint at best, and will not project above a few inches.
I expected to be able to clearly see thwe time on most of the ceiling or wall at night,- but it doesn't even come close to meeting that expectation.

The projector brokw within a month of getting in and now the alarm doesn't work.
Waste of money.

Its very cost effective clock which can play radio,iluv the projection so that i dont have to wake up at night to see the time.its so much cheaper with of features when compared to other digital clocks in the stores...

The image projected is so small I can not see it at all on the ceiling in the morning. I expected to be able to view it without putting my glasses on so it is pretty much useless to me at this point! Unless you have 20/20 vision stay away from this product.

I wanted an inexpensive projector radio clock, and this works for that purpose. However, one disappointment was that you need to set the projector clock separately, i.e. it is not adjusted to the radio clock. Also, the brightness of the projected clock is quite poor, so it has to be really dark before you see it. Overall it's ok and serves its purpose.

Clock works fine. Liked the independent projection feature. Allowed viewing from bed at night. System for setting time was unconvetional when compared to the usual technique. After reasding the directions I had no trouble settting both time modes.

I received the Coby CRA79 Digital AM/FM Projector Alarm Clock this past Christmas and four months later the projector portion of the clock failed. I'm told some of the pixals in the projector are burned out and since the warranty is only good for ninty days I now have a conventional alarm clock that I can't get fixed and will not do the one thing I want it to do. I recommend potential purchers stay as for from this product as humanly possible.

I love it! I have two in our home and they both work good. It is nice to have the time projected on the ceiling so I don't have to lift my head up to glance over at the time during the night should I awaken and want to know how much time I have until the alarm goes off. I also ordered one for my dad - he really likes his too!

This clock is aweful. Its confusing to set.(you have to set the display clock separately from the ceiling display for some reason, and they're not easy to set) the instructions dont help much. Once set, the clock was pretty good for about 2 weeks then the ceiling display stopped working properly and only the top half of the numbers would show. Totally useless. The display on ceiling is quite dim and can only only be seen in a dark room. Once the sun came up a little bit i couldnt read it anymore. It feels cheaply made too. Don't buy this stupid clock!
