4.0 out of 5 stars Fairly good., March 3, 2006

I bought this clock for my daughter after I had received a different projection clock as a gift. My daughter really likes the on-ceiling display of the clock. The only drawbacks: the projection device does not swivel left and right. That would help in positioning the on-ceiling display a little better. Also, you must set the projection clock separate from the regular clock-radio clock. Other than that, I would recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars COOLEST CLOCK EVER!!, April 18, 2008

I read the 1-star reviews and the 4- and 5-star reviews BEFORE I purchased this projection clock. I had to find out for myself. For the price, it couldn't be beat. After following the set-up instructions, I couldn't be more pleased with the performance of this space-age looking clock. IT'S FABULOUS. Someone said that it was an ugly clock. However, I respectfully disagree. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Whoever designed this clock with it's modern look should be promoted. It is brilliant!! The criticism that one can't read the projection time on the ceiling during the day is counterintuitive. One usually doesn't sleep during the day!! The idea of the projecting the time on the ceiling is BRILLIANT!!! I just roll over and there it is. No hassle, no fumbling, no bright lights in your eyes. Another criticism is that one couldn't sleep with bright light in their eyes. Just turn the clock face 90 degrees away from you and look at the ceiling!!

I came back to Amazon.com to buy two more (just in case the are discontinued for whatever reason). I LOVE THIS CLOCK!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Not great but acceptable for the price to be fair, November 14, 2006

I didn't like it but to be fair it's accepted for $10. My problems with it are:
1. It's bulky and heavy. (80s style)
2. Projection only seen in dark and the focus function isn't quite enough to get it clear on mycieling
3. If you like bright light in your room while sleeping then the standard digital clock is for you (I can't sleep like this)
4. Controls are flimsy and so very old style
5. You can't unset the alarm. You have to kill power to do that
6. Works only on electricity (120 V) and the battery (not supplied) is to keep the clock from resetting when there is a black out.
7. Even though the projector clock (the faint one) always resets to 1:00 when you unplug the power.

If you need more quality look somewhere else for some extra money.
