The Emerson CKS2237 Dual Alarm Clock Radio features Emerson's exclusive, patented SmartSet auto time-setting technology, so you'll always know the precise time. This clock radio is also loaded with features that ensure easy, dependable operation. Trust the Emerson CKS2237 to create the ideal sleeping and waking environment so you wake up on time, feeling rested and ready to start your day.
Weather conditions, power outages, and other problems can cause ordinary clock radios to cease working properly. But the Emerson CKS2237 is designed to never let you down. In fact, it automatically sets itself to the correct year, month, date, day and time as soon as you plug it in, and there's no need to reset the time after an interruption of electricity. The Emerson CKS2237 also features seven day-of-the-week LED indicators, high-lo display dimmer control, and automatic Daylight Saving and Leap Year time adjustments. Thanks to its large, easy to read 1.4-inch green display for time and .6-inch green display for month and date, even when you're just waking up, you won't have to struggle to see the exact time and date. Extremely reliable, the Emerson CKS2237 uses a battery that can last up to 5-8 years, depending on the length and frequency of power interruptions. For added peace of mind, the system comes with a low-battery indicator, and an included, extra long-life battery back-up system with 3-volt lithium battery.
The CKS2237 adjusts to meet the needs of your unique schedule by letting you set the programmable dual alarms for weekday, weekend, or everyday operation. And to ensure that you go to sleep and wake up in the way that suits you best, you can choose the sleep-to-music function, and either a radio or buzzer alarm. Other options include an auto shut-off timer (if you only want the alarm to ring a set number of times); snooze (if you need a little extra sleep); and the repeat alarm (if you prefer to have your sleep interrupted a few times before you ultimately get up). You'll also never have to worry about not hearing your alarm; the wide-range, three-inch dynamic speaker offers excellent sound quality.

Great idea but needs some refurbishing,
By
This review is from: Emerson CKS2237 Dual Alarm Clock Radio (Silver) (Electronics)
First of all, I must say that this is a great idea for a clock. It really is great how it sets itself the minute you plug it in. It's easy to read but put on the dimmer switch -it is way too bright. With that said, the actual product is made very poorly. We didn't have ours very long, about 3 months, before the buttons to set the alarm dropped down inside the clock and well, it's nonfunctional. Plus now, the time is off by about 20 minutes and it just isn't worth the kind of money they're asking. It's cheaper on QVC but they don't stand behind it either. It only has a 90 day warranty and believe me, you'll need it! I bought one for a gift, however, and it is holding up fine so maybe I got a lemon. Don't know because others have had the same problem as I have. I'm going to reorder it and try again, keeping my fingers crossed. But I'm also ordering an atomic clock to be sure.

Misleading Feature,
By
This review is from: Emerson CKS2237 Dual Alarm Clock Radio (Silver) (Electronics)
to say that this clock "sets itself automatically" is a bit misleading. that is, mine arrived with a big flyer warning that when daylight savings time changes (new law for 2006), it won't be able to automatically set itself. therefore, the flyer warns, it will be necessary to set time four times per year--the correct dst changes (twice), then the old dst changes (twice more).
my best guess is that this thing has a factory set, built-in clock that automatically sets the digital readout when it's plugged in. it preys on folks who think they're buying a clock with a receiver for wwv time signals (which my parents, who gave this to me, thought the clock had).

display malfunction,
By Fletch (Mobile, AL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Emerson CKS2237 Dual Alarm Clock Radio (Silver) (Electronics)
After about 1 month the display numbers were unreadable due to portions of the digits being burnt out, like when a light bulb goes out. Once that happened, the unit became unusable to me. Also, even after the burn-outs, the display was way too bright to be on my nightstand. I went to a window tinting place and they gave me a scrap piece of dark tint which I put over the display and that made it just about right-easily readable, but not too bright.
