Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is a winner! FINALLY, a clock that does not tick. I have reviewed several other battery powered analog clocks. Others have claimed to not tick. However, ONLY this one has actually delivered on that promise. If you want a clock that does not tick, this is the real deal. Some of the other things that I like about this clock: 1. There is not some blue light that stays on all night. If I want to see what time it is, I reach over and press the snooze button. The light goes off as soon as I let go. The light also recharges the glow-in-the-dark dots on the hour and minute hands; and at each of the numbered positions on the dial. 2. The alarm is pleasant enough. A simple beep for the first few seconds. Then it steps up to a double-beep, followed a few seconds later by a triple-beep every second for a total of 60 seconds. 3. It has a snooze button. Would you believe that one of the clocks that I looked at did not have a snooze button? Who'd thunk? Well, this one does have a five minute snooze. 4. Smooth scroll second hand. In addition to not ticking, the hand moves smoothly across the dial. One of the clocks that I tested, did not tick. But the second hand kept pausing every few seconds. After two days it was off by an hour. Not this clock. It keeps accurate time. So that's it. I did not buy it because it is not the sexiest clock. But after going through four other clocks, I gave in and went with functional. If you don't care about the ticking, get what you like. But if like me, a ticking sound drives you nuts in the silence of the night, then this clock is for you.
