Oregon Scientific Silver Easy line Radio Controlled Projection Alarm Clock RM622P

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Clock Radios
from: Oregon Scientific


This alarm clock as some nice fetures, and is perfect for traviling as it can be powered by 2 AA battres.

It also has a radio for auto ajusting to the correct time for its location (not the kind of radio that you lissen to)
And the Projected time is brillent as it will shine on the celing or the walls, at night, during the day it is not visible.

The down side to this is, its too quite, and as a havey sleeper, I was unable to here this alarm go off.
So if you are a havey sleeper, best avoid this product and find somthing with more disabell.

Sony ICF-C273L Clock Radio

Sony ICF-C273L Clock Radio
I have three main criticisms:
You cannot choose whether to have the radio or buzzer on specific occasions - you have to choose when programming it. On my previous Toshiba I could do that at the flick of a switch - for important wake ups I used the buzzer - on more relaxed mornings the radio.
It does not have an ear-phone socket although it says it has on European models. I though we were part of Europe these days! This means that I cannot use my excellent Roberts "Pillow Talk" for night-time listening.
The lack of battery backup has been mentioned by other reviewers and is a definite snag.
On balance I wish I had not bought the Dream machine.

iLuv i177 - Alarm Clock Radio With iPod Docking System - White

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Clock Radios
from: iLuv

November 01, 2006


Lots of features but no punch on sound even w/ 'Bass Booster' equalizer on iPod.

Sound lacks decent punch but that's only to be expected for the size and price.

Unbearable to listen on/above 25 vol. (max is 40!).

It kept us awake all night w/ interference (loud) noises every now and then.
An irritating buzz , like morse code.

After 2-3 days it is unbearable to listen to a cheap & plasticky sound.

So too expensive for what delivers. (which isn't much).

Roberts MP-23 (MP-Sound 23) Home Audio System

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Clock Radios
from: Roberts


If you do not want to spend twice as much on Bose, get this unit. Excellent sound and build quality. We only use it for DAB so I cannot comment on other sound sources.
What is miss is direct iPod connection, not just input jack.

And what we do not like? The LCD is too bright during the night, so bright it seems feels like full moon. However, this can be advantage if you need to find way out of the bedroom and back during night.

Philips AJ100/05 Clock Radio

The alarm is quite nice to look at, it's quite compact and is very easy to set up radio stations and alarms (2).

There are only 5 pre-sets for radio stations and although there are two alarms, as far as I can tell you can only have one radio alarm and one buzzer alarm.

There is a large button at the top of the alarm that has a double function: sleep button for alarm and dimmer switch for the backlight.

All in it's a nice little alarm. I would however, echo the previous comments that in the age of space tourism, cloning and quantum engineering that I'd expect a little bit more from an alarm. Especially when you can buy a freeview box/multi region dvd player for the same price.

Sony XDRC705DAB Clock Radio

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Clock Radios
from: Sony

July 30, 2007
Sony got this unit just right with the looks - everything other clock radio in the store had the design flair of your average computer peripheral. I got this unit to replace a Sony clock radio which I'd had for about 20 years but I wanted a DAB unit. The radio is fine and fades in which is a nice feature but the radio clicks as it is switched on, defeating the nice effect. A few other annoyances - if you switch off the alarm too quickly after it goes off (<5 seconds) it switches back on the next minute. Really annoying for my wife who sleeps later than me and gets woken just after I jump in the shower. The radio doesn't turn off after an hour like most radio alarms - this one stays on all day/week/year until you manually switch it off. The 4 alarm settings ... Read More:

Sony ICF-C1IPMK2 Speaker Dock and Clock Radio with iPod Dock (Black)

Childrens Toy Shop > Electronics > Clock Radios
from: Sony

Thanks to the very specific reviews on Amazon in respect of looking for the Mk2 (thanks guys on .com) I took a leap of faith and bought this, and I'm glad to say it has delivered what I needed for my iPhone 3G.

I hate having to faff-around and was in the position of having to remove the silicone skin I have on the phone to put it into the 3G dock at night (even though it is quite thin). For me it's rendered the official dock (and extra cost!) rather obsolete but that's another story...

The adjustable wheel on this Sony has solved the problem and has allowed me to listen to all my podcasts easily.

Functionality to drive the phone through the remote control is better than expected and it charges fine.

The unit itself ... Read More:
