It doesn't get much worse than this. The audio quality is similar to sticking your head in a bucket and scraping metal objects around. The tape player ate one of my tapes. The tuner never seemed to work in the AM band... you could go 1/4 the way on the same station/static. To trust this alarm clock in waking you for you future is as smart as tricking yourself into thinking you'll get up 30 minutes after you hear your neighbors car start. Buy this only with a surplus of aspirin...

I was not impressed with this unit, even considering its relatively low price. I purchased it because it is one of the few currently-manufactured clock radios that contains a cassette player. It is cheaply made. The unit I received was defective: when I tried to play a cassette, all I heard was a loud howl. When I accidentally hit the "sleep" button (the buttons are pretty close to each other), I was unable to stop the radio from playing and eventually had to unplug the unit. After some research I found that TIMEX (a company with at least a bit of a reputation) doesn't even make the unit--they've licensed their name to another company. They should be ashamed.
