Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Wake up to your favorite songs each and every morning with this feature-packed RCA clock radio, which boasts a vertical-loading CD player that's compatible with both audio CD and CD-R formats. The CD player lets you choose whether to rise to an abrupt guitar cacophony or the sounds of sweet strings. And should your prerecorded selections fail to satisfy, you can create your own morning soundtrack on a CD-R disc and pop it in the tray. The rest of the time, listeners can select any of the 11 presets to tune into the digital AM/FM radio. The radio also includes a number of clever add-on features, such as the ability to fall asleep to one station and wake to another, along with a Graduwake ramp-up alarm that starts soft and gets progressively louder. In addition, the device offers a nap function for people who want a quick doze and a programmable snooze timer. Users who live in rough weather areas needn't worry about oversleeping due to power outages, as the alarm also includes a battery backup that holds the time and alarm settings. The RP3750 carries a one-year warranty against defects.

Product Description

The no-worry battery backup will hold the time and wake settings during brief power failures. Don't worry about over-setting the time with forward/reverse push buttons.

This review is from: RCA RP3750 CD Clock Radio with Digital AM/FM Tuner (Electronics)

I am pleased with this clock radio. It has plenty of options for the average user; the time can be seen easily for near sighted people like myself. The stereo speakers give it a richer sound, but a little more bass would have been nice. You can set the nap time for up to two hours, which is more than alot of the clock radios allow that have this function. Even the snooze button can be programmed for up to 30 minutes. It is CD-R compatible, so I can play my own CD's. The graduated alarm function is only for the alarm and not for the radio or CD player. I never wake to an alarm anyhow - I prefer a soft sounding CD or radio station to gently wake me up. I also like the forward and reverse buttons for setting time and alarm functions - much more convenient than just having a forward button. The color of the unit is white with some metallic accents and the speakers are covered in a nice silvery mesh. Anyway, a big improvement over my 5 year old Sony Dream Machine!

If you need a versatile alarm clock first, and a CD/radio player second, then this is the model for you.

ALARM OPTIONS GALORE
This little model packs some great wakeup, sleep, and nap features. The dual alarms can be set to any combination of CD, radio or tone. You fully control the waking volume, CD track, and station, regardless of your last listening settings. Even the alarm tone is pleasant with a beeping that gradually gets louder. The 9V battery backup is also an invaluable option.

AVERAGE MUSIC LISTENING
Expect the audio quality of a clock radio, despite the RP3750's hi-fi look. The CD player has basic SKIP/RANDOM/REPEAT functions and can handle CD-R's. The radio boasts digital tuning and presets, but it's a little weak picking up signals. I do wonder about the CD player's durability. The plastic door seems a bit flimsy, and I had to exchange the first unit I bought. My initial purchase struggled (and often failed) to find CD tracks, straight out of the box!

EASY TO USE, EASY ON THE EYES
All the buttons are well placed and pretty intuitive. The LED display glows green, clearly illuminating the time and alarm settings. The machine is actually more attractive than pictured here. The plastic is pearly white, not yellowish like shown above.

On the whole, the RP3750 is a wonderful alarm clock with a passable CD player and radio. Stylish and well-priced!

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent for kitchen countertop, March 4, 2003

I am so happy with this little unit. I bought this CD/radio for use in the kitchen. I have never used the alarm features, so I can't say how they work. However, I LOVE the size and the speaker location and the way the CD opens from the front. The light color of the unit is attractive, not the usual dark black colors common in clock radios/CDs. I bought a second one for my husband's desk at work. Easy to turn radio off and NO CDs have skipped. Yay!!
