Insignia Am/fm Clock Radio Ns-cl1111

Insignia Am/fm Clock Radio Ns-cl1111
  • Large display: Allows you to easily view the time.
  • AM/FM tuner: For easily finding your favorite radio station.
  • Alarm: Gives you the option of waking up to a buzzer or the radio.
  • Battery backup: So you can still listen to the radio or use the alarm when the power goes out.

I received mine like new. It came in its original box and looked practically unused. It looks just as it does in the preview picture. It's very easy to set up and start using. The big numbers can be seen from the far end of the room even if your vision is a bit spotty. You can set the alarm to start the radio, or a conventional buzzer. And you can even just listen to the radio on it.

Setting the hour and hitting the snooze is pretty easy. All around, pretty much all I could ask for in an alarm clock. Five stars.

My daughter bought this for herself and loves it! She places the bed shaker under her pillow and it wakes her up quickly without startling her. You can program 2 timers and for each, you have a choice of the bed shaker, iPod, radio or buzzer to wake you up. My daughter likes the bed shaker because she doesn't get startled and she wakes up every time (unlike the buzzer which is annoying or iPod/radio can be easy to sleep through). Sound quality is good and buttons are easy to press and timers easy to program. Would definitely buy another and recommend!

Buy iLuv Vibro I Bed Shaker 30-Pin iPod/iPhone Alarm Clock Speaker Dock (Blue) Now

I bought this little iLuv iMM 153 clock radio for my daughter's 11th birthday. She loves blue and she loved receiving this radio. She also has a hard time getting up for school in the morning so I thought the bed shaker might help her. It is amazingly small, and it has a really low profile, it is short. So it fit nicely on her nightstand without taking up much space.

The iLuv 153 is small 8 1/2"L x 3 1/2"D x 2 3/4"H. It is an FM clock radio/ipod/iphone charger/player. It comes with NO manual, you must download it from the iLuv website. Here is the manual: www . weatherconnection . com / manuals / imm153WHT . pdf (copy and paste and remove the spaces). I couldn't put the link in here without spaces as Amazon deletes any links it sees in reviews. They hate any reference to any other products or websites besides their own even if it is just for the stinkin' manual for cryin' out loud!

It advertises it will charge and play all your ipods. But the listing specs DO NOT mention an iphone charging capability, and I scrutinized all the specs and reviews to find out and really didn't get a definitive answer to it. But it DOES charge and play music from my daughter's iphone4. Yes, 4. Probably the 3 and 4S generations as well if it'll accept a 4.

Once you place your iphone in the docking station, a message appears that says "This accessory is not optimized for this iphone". Just hit "dismiss" on the iphone display in the pop up window and your iphone will play music just fine. We've not experienced any cellular interference as the message also states.

You must select your playlist or song directly on your iphone and can hit the pause button on the radio or iphone and if you hit it again later, the iphone will start where you left off in the song.

It comes with an AC adapter. The backlight is a pretty bright blue and since my daughter likes having a night light, she uses the brightest setting. The iLuv iMM 153 comes with a 10 step dimmer, but it really has 9 steps of brightness, the beginning step is "off" and completely dark. It is difficult to read the display from the side, so you have to look at it head on to really see the display clearly.

There are 10 radio station programmable presets. The bed shaker does work, shakes her pillow and wakes her up. I wouldn't say it shakes her whole bed like some other reviewers claimed theirs did. There is a battery backup (2 AAA batteries not included) for the clock and radio presets, but this won't provide power for your ipod/iphone.

A great, cute, small clock radio/ipod/iphone player for a tween or teen who has limited space on their nightstand. Again, it plays and charges your iphone as well as your ipod.

I just got my iluv today, and yes it is small. The sound quality is not the same as sound you would get from a Bose speaker (my bff has one so I know the difference). You have to turn it up to at least 7/8 to hear anything but for me thats ok, I only need it for my dorm anyway. The bed shaker is very powerful, it scared the crap out of my roommate when my bed started vibrating randomly as I was fiddling with the alarm system. The only problem on mine is that the forward button is broken and reverses everything. But its working and its cute. My favorite color is blue so everything I have is blue in my room and it matches perfectly. ^_^

Therefore, if you are looking for something reasonable for school that could wake even the hardest of sleepers go for this product. AND if you share a bed with someone else, be reasonable and use your brain. OBVIOUSLY it shakes the bed not just your pillow (which is why its a bed shaker). There is a review complaining about how it woke up the 2 people sharing a bed instead of one and I just shake my head. Buy it, you won't regret it!

I added pictures of mine on my desk to show the size comparison next to my mac (once I figure out how)

Plus, you can take it on the road because it can run on batteries, which is great for me because I am always traveling.

My 11-year old son purchased this product and loves it! He loves having someplace to store his i-touch. He and his brothers listen to music as they fall asleep. They can all hear it very well, as opposed to just listening to the i-touch without speakers. The alarm is great, easy to set, turn on and turn off. He's still afraid to use the shaker because it may scare him.

The buttons and clock display are nice and big, easy to use for a child. This product also comes in black, white and pink if you're interested.

Enjoy it!

This has been a godsend! After buying 2 other alarm clocks, neither of which would even stir my deep-sleeping, 12 year old daughter, we gave this one a try and it's great the shaker under the pillow is enough to rouse her. She loves it because she has an iTouch and she loves the blue color! I just recently bought a black one for my 7 year old son. The only complaint that I have is with the written instructions, which aren't very clear or complete, but my tech savy kids seem to have little trouble with the settings.

Kaito KA105 Portable radio

Kaito KA105 Portable radio
  • Kaito AM/FM/SW shortwave radio with high quality and stylish design
  • 3 tuning optional: Scan/Key in/Memory, up to 30 memory stations
  • LCD display with back light, Alarm clock and sleep timer
  • Aluminum alloy front cover, full angle rotation antenna and hinged battery cover
  • 90 days money back guarantee and one year limited warranty

This is a tiny digital radio, including presets, at the 50-dollar price point. The size of a small bar of soap, the KA105 delivers crisp sound; it locks on stations; its AM reception is equal to its big brothers the Kaito 1101, 1102, and 1103.

But don't get this radio for shortwave. And don't get this radio for music. The speaker is too small to separate musical instrumentation. Talk radio is fine and that's what I'd limit this radio to. For a little more, you might be happier with the Kaito 1101. The latter sits with good stability on its stand whereas the 105 sits on a wobbly plastic slat that has a tendency to fall off.

I've had mine in the bathroom for over a year now and it pulls in the distant NPR Pasadena 89.3 with ease. For its limited use, it's quite effective. But I wouldn't buy it as an "everyday" radio.

If you need a little travel radio and you listen to talk, the KA 105 will be fine. But if you want musical fidelity, I suggest you upgrade to a Tivoli Audio Songbook, also a digital radio, for 160 dollars. If you want fidelity and don't mind analog tuning (with digital readout), you might look at the 99-dollar Grundig S350.

Very few pocket radios come with a clock and alarm anymore. While it is a little spendy, it does the trick and actually pulls in some distant stations. The audio is not great for music, but what do you expect for a speaker that small. Anyway, it is fine overall.

I bought this radio as a travel radio alarm clock. I have used it for two weeks. It does a very poor job of getting FM or AM stations when you are not in a large city. I was using it in small cities. Second, the antenna is very hard to use. You need real force to get it out of the radio, and it seems to be breaking. This is after two weeks of daily use. The plus side is that the radio is light. But if I had to make the purchase again I would definitely buy a radio that weighed about 16 ounces, and might do a better job away from major cities and had higher quality control.

Want Kaito KA105 Portable radio Discount?

I like shortwave portables, but currently it seems that no manufacturer makes one that is delivered without problems. The Kaito's AM band selectivity is not just annoying, but appears to be at least five (ten?) channels wide, making it worse than useless on that band. I've seen crystal radios with far better selectivity. The other bands/features work well, but as usual, there is one glaring problem.

UNLOCKED QWERTY DUAL SIM QUAD BAND FM GSM CELL PHONE i5 PRO BLACK

UNLOCKED QWERTY DUAL SIM QUAD BAND FM GSM CELL PHONE i5 PRO BLACKI purchased this little phone in white. It is unlocked and has 2 sims card holder and one for a small micros sd slot for memory. The camera works, the text and phone works just fine, but I can't get the alarm clock to work. It also always says A.M. no matter whether it is am or pm. So I set it to 24 hr format to just keep from getting confused. It does keep time ok. The battery does not hold hold charge for very long, the ad I saw said that a Nokia battery was available was compatible for it, although I have no idea which Nokia battery that would be, and I have had a lot of Nokia phones and they tend to hold charge for a long time so I assume that would be because they have good batteries. I don't have internet on my phone so I cannot comment on whether that works well or not. It is a nice little phone and I don't know why I can't get the alarm to work, I have set alarms in a lot of other phones without any problems.

loved it. It was just what I thought........ .................. ................. ................. ........ ... .... .... .. . . . .

iLive ICR6806DT Digital Clock Radio with iPod Docking Station (White)

iLive ICR6806DT Digital Clock Radio with iPod Docking Station
  • Digital clock radio with built-in docking station for "dockable" iPods
  • Dual alarms wake to iPod, digital AM/FM tuner, or buzzer
  • Stereo speakers are acoustically calibrated for superior performance
  • Auxiliary input for older iPods and MP3 players; 4 preset EQ settings
  • Video output; measures 13 x 6.5 x 4.7 inches (W x H x D); 90-day warranty

Unfortunately I can't give this device less then one star.

My point even $40 is way too much for this piece of junk that only can be used as a paperweight with some basic radio and electronic clock functions.

Yes, it looks really not that bad and clock/alarm functions are OK and I don't care that the clock display is somewhat too light in the night.

But the main problem of this "audio" system (the quotes are on purpose) is HOW IT SOUNDS!

The sound quality is not just bad it's TERRIBLE!!! Period.

Since I have some background in electronics I clearly see that the analog amplifier of this device was designed by someone who has very little idea about sound at all. May be by some guy who spent most of his professional career disgning cheap $1 radios.

Horrible sound distortions (my guess around 15%-20% at least), the noise level just kills your ears (my guess the signal/noise ratio is not better then 30-32 dB), _very_ bad design of the power supply and filters for the analog subsystem every time your iPod hard disk drive starts you hear all details of how it's starts spinning, etc...

My point of view is that probably iLive decided to save on few good quality parts and that lead to absolute failure. They probably saved few bucks but killed all good that was in this product.

From another point of view this baby will wake you up for sure you'll do anything you can to stop these terrible sounds in the morning. :-)

The bottom line I don't think that I will ever buy anything from iLive.

PS. I tried 3 (three) different devices all the same. Glad that got rid of it now.

Buy iLive ICR6806DT Digital Clock Radio with iPod Docking Station (White) Now

Well my family purchased an (i)home since we wanted to hear either the radio or our IPOD music in the morning. The two drawbacks with the (i)Home is (a) It's like shining a torch in your room at night and (2) when the radio/ipod goes off in the morning, the volume progresses from a low 0 to 20 (out of 30) in about 10 secs and blows the ears off you. I really ask myself who designs these things they must be deaf.

Well the reason why I elaborate on this is because this iLive has an equally disturbing blue light that shines in your room and secondly, it too blows the ears off you in the morniing. We're not a quiet family and we like our music loud but let's take the morning in perspective. We returned the iLive to Amazon and now we're looking for No. 3. We have been referred to the Jensen Clock radio/IPOD.

Postives it has a remote control and its sound is very good (when you are actually willing to listen to it a high level!)

If you're looking for a good iPod speaker system, keep looking. The sound quality is noticably terrible even for this price, and I am not that picky. There is constant buzzing in the background..gets louder as you crank it up. Especially noticable between songs. The music sounds very 'boxy' and muted. My laptop does a better job definitely.

Whats worse is the alarm clock. You can wake to the iPod which would be great if the loudness of the alarm wouldn't wake up the whole house! You can't adjust the volume of the alarm beforehand and it gets SUPER loud. I tried leaving the iPod volume and the system's volume very low..nope still too loud. And the buzzer alarm sounds like a foghorn "dooot" it's horrible. The radio transmission is just as low quality, there is always buzzing and my other radio doesn't do that in the very same room.

There is a remote, but it's poorly designed. Still it's slim and cute, just one more problem. It doesn't read the remote until you're only 10 feet away. At that point I can just walk up to it and push the buttons. :(

Also, the LCD screen is ridiculously bright. It lights the room when the lights are turned off. Its basically a strong nightlight.

I don't recommend this if you care about the sound quality from your iPod. If you're having a party and this would be the main speaker system, your guests will not be impressed. Buy something more expensive you get what you pay for.

Recommended for people's younger aged kids who have iPods. You can put it in their room. I mean, it still produces sound, and at lower volumes, may be acceptable. If they're not too picky, this might be good. And it doubles as a nightlight!

Pros:

Good looking

Easy to use

has a remote, alarm clock, and am/fm radio w/10 presets

Cons:

LCD screen too bright

bad sound quality

alarm clock TOO loud

remote useless

DONT BUY IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR GREAT SOUND

Overall, for the price, it delivers what you paid for. But there have to be better systems even for this price. Try the iBlaster, less features but better sound.

Want iLive ICR6806DT Digital Clock Radio with iPod Docking Station (White) Discount?

For the price level the iLive is pretty good. The sound quality isn't every good at all because there always seems to be a little bit of static in the background whether you're listening to your ipod or the radio. Waking up to any song on your ipod and having the remote control are definetly the pros. If you're looking for great sound quality I'd keep looking, but if you aren't too picky on the sound quality and just want a fairly cheap ipod alarm/player/charger then this is a great choice.

I was disappointed in this product. It looks and feels cheaply made. The manual has multiple typos and errors. And the sound quality is subpar. I wish I'd bought a better quality product from a store at twice the price.
