Time will tell if it sticks or if it starts getting faster and faster. I don't keep manuals around for 'simple' equipment, so I had to look it up online. I loved the idea of an 'auto-time set' clock, until this one started gaining time, minute by minute. Within a year it has become 16 minutes fast. You CAN reset the time, which I have now done.
You get what you pay for. The controls are not use friendly and makes it easy to hit the wrong buttons/switches. The design and layout of the comtrols is poor. Remember, much of the time your operating the controls you're half asleep. Everything works as stated, it's just how they work that makes it difficult to use.
The time isnt automatic as described. Its factory preset.Once the battery dies, it loses correct time and you wil haved to reset.
It came on time and was not very expensive. I actually thought it was unbelievable.
I would not buy this clock radio a second time around and am thinking about buying a different clock radio to replace this one. Currently I have to put this clock under my desk to see the display in order to set the alarm. Too bad the newer model is worse than the older model. If it wasn't for a display that is too dim, this clock radio would be a good one. I looked on the clock radio itself and in the instructions and couldn't find a way to make the display brighter. The older Sony "dream machine" clock radio had a brighter display and was a good one, so I bought this newer one thinking it would be good also.
