KEYPOWERAlarm Clock Mechanical Wind Twin Bell Double Bell Small

This clock can lose up to five minutes of accuracy per day. Plus the alarm will go off up to 20 minutes late depending upon where the hand marking the alarm time points. It is almost impossible to get it to alarm on time.The instructions for the clock tell you this, not the description. It is right. I tried to get the alarm set to go off on time with five minutes later than I set it for being the best I could achieve. I suppose awakening on time is not important in China...?

Ringer is loud and great, but clock doesn't keep good time. Directions are not good at all. Waste of money. The clock was so small, I laughed when I took it out of box. It just looked big in the picture, I didn't check out the size, which was my fault. It is hard to keep running. Constantly have to wind it. Big mistake on my part. Will never get another one. I had another one that looked like this, and it was huge in size. I never had any problems with it at all . I don't recommend this at all. Cheaply made. Money wasted.

Like the title of this review states, it doesn't keep the time exactly PERFECT, but that is fixable, according to what I just read, by adjusting one of the mechanisms on the back. I was VERY surprised by how small but LOUD this wind-up clock is! I usually have to set at LEAST ten alarms on my phone in order to actually hear them and wake up (and the app from which I get my alarm sounds its actually called "Loud Alarm Ringtones" 🙄.) Now, the dials on the back that you use to set the time and alarm are super small and a bit hard to turn, so unless you're like me and have really small fingers, you MIGHT find it too difficult... I'm used to wind-up alarm clocks, so I knew already not to over-wind the other two knobs that show the clock and alarm to operate, but it is ALMOST too hard to determine WHEN to stop winding. You usually do it until you meet resistance and go no further, but these knobs already feel "resistance-y", so the best thing to do is just be careful and turn them slowly. All in all, I'm pretty satisfied with this since it didn't cost much, but these are things I would've liked to be different that I've described. Finally, allegedly this clock glows in the dark. Nuh-uh. I don't know if I'm supposed to expose it to a light source to get it to do that or not, but I just know mine hasn't glowed since the get-go. Hope this helps, y'all!

Obsessive compulsive disorder can really suck sometimes. I saw the reviews, I knew what I was getting into. I knew I was taking a chance ordering one of these tiny alarm clocks. After moving it in and out of my Amazon cart at least seven times, I finally just ordered it. No, alcohol was not involved... my last drunk purchase cost a lot more than $20.It arrived two days later. I opened the package to find the object of my fascination... a minuscule twin-bell alarm clock. It's adorable. I would it up. I'm not sure what I expected to happen, or if I'm upset or relieved, but the darned little thing just works lol. The movement has a very pleasant slow heartbeat. After a little regulating, it keeps perfectly adequate time too. Loses maybe a minute or so a week. Been ticking happily on my bedside table for over a month now. Liked it enough to order a second one in brass direct from China.All I can say, is I guess I got a good one. But there is still plenty of time for it to somehow spontaneously combust I guess.... but I have my doubts.

The directions are ok, but not great. Thankfully there are arrows on the back, indicating the direction to wind. (Counterclockwise) On The left is the alarm winder & setting knobs. On the right is the clock winder & time setting knobs.I’d read a review about larger fingers having difficulty. I can see that could be an issue. The winding & time setting knobs are pretty close to each other. I have thinner/average fingers and my fingers brush against the time set knob while winding the clock. It doesn’t prevent me from winding, but for someone with larger fingers, I can see that it could be a problem. The time setting knob is stiff enough to not turn easily, so it doesn’t appear to affect that, by bumping while winding the clock.I’ve had this a few days now. After the initial wind & time setting, I now wind each morning & then again before bed. It doesn’t keep good time and would not be a reliable clock for that. The first couple of days it lost 5-7 min. This morning it had already lost 3 min from overnight. If I keep up with correcting the time, it should still work fine as an alarm clock. 3-5 min off doesn’t hurt my ability to get ready in the morning.It does have a nice ticking sound. It doesn’t bother me since I like white noise or constant types of noise to sleep by. But if you have to have it very quiet to sleep, you may need to not use a wind up clock.The luminescence on the numbers & hands is small and even though I have it in front of the window & it’s been mostly sunny the last couple days, I really can’t see anything in the dark, so I wouldn’t count on being able to see the time in the dark. I haven’t experimented with shining lights on it though, so I don’t know if that would help, like it does with some mechanical watches.Overall this is a decent clock, and had the most, best ratings I could find on here. When I was in jr high, my dad gave me an alarm clock like this to get myself up for school. It kept great time. I had it for years, and I wish they still made that quality. Likely, that old, reliable clock was made in the USA. Now if only someone in the USA would start these up again.

Very disappointed in the clock. Will not keep correct time, falls behind even though the adjustment is all the way over to the plus, +, side. The alarm is not as laud as stated and only last for a few seconds, not long enough to wake you up.
