Beautiful clock. It has a loud but pleasant ring with a somewhat deeper, lower sound due to the thicker metal.
I’m an extremely heavy sleeper. I probably would have slept through World War II. I haven’t had difficulty waking up to my new Westclox. That’s probably because it’s loud. It isn’t a wind up ringer. And it rings continuously until it’s turned off. I located it on the opposite side of the room from my bed so I have to get up to turn it off.
Not sure if the hands are supposed to be glow-in-the dark. They look like the old-time radioactive hands, but don’t seem to be glowing.
It’s heavier and better quality than the cheaper one I bought on Amazon a year ago. The ring was high-pitched and annoying. Every day it would rattle off my dresser faster than I could get out of bed to turn it off.
My new Westclock travels only slightly when ringing. So, to keep it from falling off the dresser, I arranged a couple of little hand weights behind it and in front of it so it stays in one place.
I would’ve paid more than twice the amount for it to be heavier so it wouldn’t travel. But as it is, it’s a great price and is much better quality than the cheapo from Amazon.
I had to get an old school alarm because my iphone didnt go off two days in a row despite being turned on..anyways this works great and the color options are cool
Easy to use and read!
This clock is large, clear and easy to read. Numbers can be displayed in multiple colors to fit the mood of the room. I also liked that the dimming function is low enough as not to light up the whole room. As for durability, only time will tell. Will update review if durability becomes an issue (had a lot of clocks that only last a few months!)
I had the opportunity to receive this Westclox digital clock courtesy of Amazon Vine, and I immediately knew it would make the perfect belated birthday gift for my brother’s 66th. He’s been wanting one ever since I got a similar clock for another family member, and this one did not disappoint!It arrived quickly, securely packaged, and in a nice box that made it gift-ready right out of the gate. The clock is compact yet very well made, with a high-quality feel and a modern look. The large, easy-to-read numbers are a huge plus—clear visibility from across the room makes it ideal for older eyes. The alarm volume is loud enough to wake even the deepest sleeper (or someone hard of hearing), and both the brightness and volume can be easily adjusted to personal comfort.The controls are conveniently located on top, making it simple to navigate. My brother especially loves the RGB color display—there are 13 different color modes to choose from, including 7 solids, 2 multi-colors, and 4 fun color-changing options. It adds a unique, customizable glow to his nightstand and is just plain fun.It’s powered via a USB-C to USB-A cable (included), and although no adapter comes with it, we always have a few extras lying around. There’s also a battery backup option (batteries not included), which is a fantastic feature—it keeps the time and alarm saved in the event of a power outage. Another great bonus? It has an extra USB-C port, so he can charge his phone directly from the clock—super convenient!Lightweight, sturdy, and dependable—he’s been using it for six months now and still raves about it. Honestly, I’ve grown so fond of it myself that I’m tempted to buy one too—as sadly, Amazon Vine only sends you one! With its reasonable price and impressive mix of quality, functionality, and style, this would make a great gift for just about anyone.Highly recommended!
