Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Timex's T60 is a bedside AM/FM CD/radio alarm clock that provides two settable alarms, plus custom one-touch alarm settings for seven, five, or two days. You can choose to wake to your favorite CD track, radio station, or one of three different riffs. Three-inch stereo speakers provide enhanced sound quality for music.

The T60 features "mystery answers." Ask the T60 a question, press the Mystery button and it will give you one of 14 answers in both male and female voices.

Alarm features include a sleep button to doze off to CD or AM/FM radio. A large, easy-to-find snooze bar sits across the top of the unit, while a three-step brightness switch lets you adjust the backlit display to what's easiest for you to view. A battery backup system is included so you won't be caught sleeping even if there's a power outage.

1.0 out of 5 stars At least it broke fast, October 10, 2002

This review is from: Timex TX60Q Rock 'n' Roll Clock Radio (Stereo CD, Mystery Phrases, Dual Alarm) (Electronics)

It worked alright for less than a week, and then one morning I woke up to the sound of my CD spinning very fast and scratching against the sides of the CD player. After that, the CD player stopped working altogether.

Even if it doesn't break, you still get what you pay for. It's dual alarm, but only one can be "wake to CD," and the sound quality isn't very good either.

Also, contrary to the Amazon review, I'm fairly sure there's no way to set the alarm for anything less than 7 days (without turning it off manually).

The idea of a [$] CD alarm clock is nice, but I would recommend spending [$] more for an infinitely better one
