Product Description
From the Manufacturer
With a sleek form and color that can only be the work of widely-acclaimed French designer Philippe Starck, Oregon Scientific's Starck Collection presents the perfect blend of contemporary design and high tech weather monitoring. The clock receives radio signals from the official US Atomic Clock and sets itself accordingly for precision accuracy. It also features a handy calendar and daily crescendo alarm with snooze. Measuring just 3 by 3 by 1-1/2 inches, this small device is easy to pack along, and fits nicely on the windowsill. The barometer features easy-to-read weather forecast symbols (sunny, partly cloudy, cloudy and rainy), and graphical trend indicators (rising, falling, or steady). An optional altitude compensation setting (-100 m to 2500 m) keeps weather forecasts accurate at lower and higher elevations. Oregon Scientific's HiGlo backlight ensures easy night-time viewing.

Piece of Junk,
This review is from: Oregon Scientific Phillipe Starck Radio-Controlled Clock with Barometer, Basic Small, Red (Kitchen)
This has to be one of my all time worst purchases. Here are the list of just some of the problems:1. Not user friendly. Rubber buttons on the back of unit that are not visible and feel wierd to the touch and half the time when you can find the button to press it does not work. 2. AC plug keeps falling out. 3. Radio sound is horrible. No way to get good reception from the antenna and I have no trouble with reception from other products since I live in a populated area. Radio already has broken and is stuck on one station. 4. Readings are inaccurate with the barometer and temperature. 5. Atomic Clock does not set correctly. Time is lost every day. Do not be decieved by the looks of this clock. It is a flimsy horrible product that should have never been put on the market in the first place. You have been forwarned. Stay away from this product.

I thought products offered by Oregon Scientific were reliable and user friendly. This product is confusing ... The back control buttons are rubber and not at all intuitive. Furthermore, I paid full price way back when and not the clock is no longer working. IF you have been seeing these items for a while you will see that the price has been dropping precipitously over the last few months. This tells me that the amount of returns on the products are high. The "upgraded" radio model is not better. I also have the small one. At worst I will call these Papa Junck, Momma Junck and Baby Junck...I have rarely found NOTHING nice to say about a product so I will conclude that at least the amber display was pleasing to the eye when it worked...
