Tools and Hardware Reviews of Elgin Travel Alarm ClockCustomer Review: Inexpensive, easy to use--love it!!! Summary: 5 Stars
I wanted a simple, inexpensive digital alarm clock and this one is perfect. It is easy to set up, easy to use, big numbers are easy to read. Travels great. I actually keep it on my desk when not traveling to track another time zone for work. I'm totally satisfied.
Customer Review: Is only illuminated if you press snooze button Summary: 3 Stars
Described as a illuminated battery operated alarm clock was misleading. I wanted a small battery operated clock I could see the time clearly in the dark, without completely waking or pressing any buttons. Seems to be a functional travel alarm. Know that you cannot see the time in the dark without pressing the snooze button, which they say lasts 4 seconds illuminated.
Customer Review: It nice, but Summary: 2 Stars
For the most part, I like the alarm clock. It's easily programed, doesn't have odd battery requirements. Alarm noise is annoying enough to get me moving. The 2 things I don't care for; 1 - the Indiglo feature is fine for seeing the time, but it felects badly off the not lit face plate & makes it difficult to see those details (ie, I want to change the alarm time without turning the light on and waking up my husband); 2 - the cover for the batteries comes off with very little effort, so when I'm fumbling to turn of the alarm (I'm half blind w/o my glasses) I knock the battery cover off & have to reset the whole thing. Duct Tape does seem to have served it's purpose once again.
Customer Review: Junk Summary: 1 Stars
I left it in my last hotel room. The light failed to work - the dial had insufficient contrast to view easily in light and was impossible in the dark. While at first I welcomed the convenient cheap two AAA batteries I realized they added unwanted weight; the clock was much heavier than alternative devices. The alarm was almost inaudible. It may be I had a defective example. If so, faulty quality control.
Customer Review: Just Right Summary: 5 Stars
Although this travel alarm may not be for everyone, it suits my needs perfectly. It's display is large enough to read from a distance, it is easy to set and the alarm is loud enough to wake me. There isn't anything I would change about it.
