Emerson Dual Alarm Clock Radio Amfm Smartset

This is a fantastic alarm. I love the quiet wake feature which starts at a whisper and increases the decibels until you stop it. My family perhaps loves this feature even more than I do because I tend to snooze for an hour or so if I can get away with it. I like the auto-set feature and wish my other clocks could have that too.

It has two alarms so I can set it different on the weekends. The radio is not very good, but I didn't plan to use it much anyway.

You DO have to be careful if you plan to snooze not to accidentally hit the off button. It's a little too easy to do that!

After reading all the reviews about the display being too bright, I decided to buy one anyway. The model number of the one I received (2/2012) is CKS9031 and there is a suffix of MA. I suspect that Emerson has corrected the "too bright" display. On high it is fine and on low it is barely readable during the day. The clock set to the correct time out of the box.

Had this in a guest room when staying at a relatives, it lit up the room and worked as a nightlight for my 2 y/o. I liked the large display and was amazed when the darn thing set itself when I moved it to a different outlet.

Astheticly, I liked the size of the unit, it preffer something w/ some weight to it. This radio seems solid and since I bought it for a kids room, it better be. The lines are atractive, sort of rounded edges and a nice sublte modern look.

The display comes in red, green & blue. I have blue for the kiddo's room to light it up (even on dim). I will get red for mine, as I want a dark room.

I do agree that the tuning is sub-par. The dial is just too "fuzzy" for a digital tuner. I knew this going in and was OK w/ it. I get the classical station I want and it basicaly stays on 24/7 in the kids room at a low level.

Quick setup with the clock time and no issues setting the alarm. Wife likes the soft to loud alarm wake-up feature of the clock. What we both dislike is the amount of blinding light the clock emits on normal or dimmer setting. We have to either cover up the clock before turning in for the night or face it to a wall to cut down on the light. I gave it 2 stars because of the dimmer being so bright.

Purchased this clock after reading most of the reviews, even though some said it was too bright. It was very easy to set up. It set itself with the exception of the time zone, which was very easy to do. That night we were surprised to find it was not to bright for us. I did adjust it to dim. It gives off some light which for us is good. If you like a very dark room you may not like it but we love it. Our OLD clock was wrong about a month in the spring and two weeks in the fall. It had an old chip. I am very pleased to get this one now we won't have the wrong time. I love the blue color. I do not like the red and green as much. We are very pleased with this clock. We ordered through Amazon and got it for $24.99 with free shipping because I ordered something else.
