Great CD player/clock radio! July 12, 2008 I bought this for my oldest daughter about 6 years ago, and I loved it so much I bought it for my youngest daughter recently. We use it in each of their rooms every night when we put them to sleep. We play the same lullabies CD every night. It has held up to many years of use without a problem. I highly recommend it.
Would-be awesome, but for one HUGE flaw... June 27, 2008 There was nothing about this Sony Dream Machine alarm clock I didn't like at first. The display was huge and easy to read, there were 2 alarms so couples could wake at different times, and it played CDs, had a line-in jack for my Zune, and the audio quality was pretty good. It even picked up some stations my previous clock radios couldn't get. So what was the problem?
My new house suffers from frequent brown outs, where the power flickers but doesn't go out completely. I discovered very quickly what a clock with no battery backup option is worth - nothing. When I bought this Sony, I assumed it had a place for batteries in case the power went out, so you wouldn't have to reset the time or alarms. After all, it's 2008 and I hadn't seen a clock with no battery option in years and years. In some ways, it's like selling a new car with no tires. As good as this clock is in every other respect, the lack of battery backup brings it from a 5-star rating to a 2-star rating. I don't know what they were thinking when they left this feature off. Be late for work one time and see how important batteries are.
Recommended? No.
perfect clock radio June 25, 2008 I bought this clock radio for my husband and he loves it. it is the perfect size and has everything he wanted.
BEWARE: Falsely Described as Playing MP-3 Encoded CDs! June 21, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Purchased as a means of listening to MP-3 files on CD-R discs, and although it explicitly describes this capability in the product description, it has no such ability!! It sneered at the cds with mp3 files, and none of the box descriptions nor the scant "manual" mentions this facility. Since others have also reported in earlier reviews, it's disappointing that Amazon hasn't fixed the description yet.
By the way, the tuner wasn't very good at all, either. Sound, what you expect for $40.
Solid quality June 8, 2008
The sound is very nice, and good volume range (it can get quite loud) The unit is on the large side, and the numbers very visible (takes a lot of room on the bed table). The two alarms are nice. The sleep function is nice too. And each alarm (A and B) can bet set independently to either CD, Radio, Buzzer, or Off. I'm totally happy with it.
