Crosley Vintage Art Deco Analog Alarm Clock, Quiet Sweep Non-Ticking, Automatic Dimmable Smart Light, Simple Controls, (Black)

Everything a clock should be, plus a pretty blue backlight.

Awfully cute! The background light stays on and you can adjust the brightness. You can also tap the top button for additional quick brightness.

Cell phone alarm went bad. Nice alarm independent from power grid or heavily used and always being replaced phone.

Works great. Looks great. But hard to read the time at night from across the room unless the night-light function is turned up al the way (but full brightness might keep you from falling asleep). Hands have decorative holes which also makes reading the time at night from across the room a bit difficult. A solid 4 star product - best for your guest room.

It's absolutely perfect for me. It's battery powered, soundless, adjusts itself to room light and I love the retro style, and sturdiness so my cat can't easily knock it off the nightstand. Don't know about the alarm. I never need one.

Here's the deal. I had an older version of this clock, which looked nicer (more vintage face), and was heftier. I had it for maybe 10 years. (Good clock) It didn't pass the "Drop " test however when I knocked it off the nightstand. So, I ordered this one. When I received it, and started to put the batteries in, I noticed that one of the springs was about half the size it should have been, so the battery didn't fit tightly. This was fixed by inserting a spring from a ball point pen which did the trick. I shouldn't have had to do that; just didn't want to go through the hassle of returning it. QC in China failed on this one. It is working though, but still doesn't measure up to the older one.

This is a sweet little alarm clock. I love the retro style. The batteries were easy too put in and easy to set. I was using a wind-up clock but had to reset it all the time so this is nice with the batteries. The alarm starts out quiet but gets louder and louder and steady so I don't think anyone would be able to sleep through it. It certainly loud enough for me. I would buy it again I would recommend it.

Love the art deco look. Easy to set time and alarm. Only complaint is I can't have the light off entirely for sleep. They allow you to dim the clock face light but not turn it off entirely. It's blue light so it's bad to have in your room at night for sleep. The dimming function should go from brightest to off. Instead, the light is always on, dimly if that's where you set the dimmer. Then when you press the button on top, it goes to full brightness briefly if you need it brighter to read the time. Makes no sense. During the day I don't need the light at all, during the night I don't want the light at all, except if I press the button to check the time.
