Pros: Realistic nature soundsCons: Radio plays like mono instead of stereo After barely one year, the CD player doesn't work, just spins around and around and says "no disc." The clock is always 3-4 minutes fast.Buyer beware.
But the replacement did the same thing after a couple of months. Called Timex Audio, and they replaced it. A waste of money. The CD player stopped working. it shows "no" on the display. Called the company, no further warranty on it nor repair available.
It often wouldn't recognize that a CD was in the machine. After a few months, the CD player stopped working entirely. The CD player gave us problems out of the box. (We should have returned it, but I'd just had a baby so no time).
The exception are the wind chimes, which are actually very pleasant to wake up to. As with most clock radios sporting "nature sounds", these tend to be repetitive and distorted to the point that they don't sound "natural" at all. Bottom line: it does what I need it to do. Received this as a gift. I agree that it is overly large for your average nightstand and the display is incredibly bright, even on its dimmest setting. On the plus side, you have a variety of alarm modes (CD, radio, nature sounds), two separate alarms, sleep timer, and an aux input for an MP3 player, all of which have worked just fine for me.
Don't waste your money. I paid $60 for it from Bed Bath and Beyond, thinking the quality would match the price. I loved it when I bought it, but the CD player stopped working within the first year. From the other reviews, I see I'm not the only one who had this problem. Not so.
