Unless you can sleep with bright lights, don't care about the correct time, and are not picky about the sound quality, I would NOT recommend this product. I contacted customer service because of...
I see the bad reviews but I find the Homedics SoundSpa to be a terrific addition to anyone's bedroom. The time is projected in a very clear soft blue on the ceiling. I don't find it to be overly...
This is our second Sony under-cabinet CD/radio. We had to replace the first which broke (our fault) and this one is wonderful. It has the MP3 adapter that the first one did not and the buttons for...
Bought this as a christmas present for my mother. It works great, but I felt like it was a bit overpriced at about $70. Only reason why it could be worth this amount is because of the rarity of...
You have just 10 days left -- count them, TEN -- to honor the woman who gave you life, wiped your nose and kissed your boo-boos.? Unless she was anything like my mom who was more likely to tell me to suck it up! whenever I skinned my knee or crashed into a car while riding my bike... uh, thats another story, moving on...Regardless, shes mom, we love her, and she deserves a little something on her special day.? Here are some suggestions from the gadget realm:1. We all want to know mom made it home safely after visiting us for a late dinner in our low-rent apartments on the seedy side of town, right?? Help mom find her way with a GPS system for her car.? Garmin makes the Nuvi 200W Portable GPS navigation system ($166.47) with a wide 4.3-inch touchscreen color display.? It comes with pre-loaded maps, voice guidance, travel tools and is SD card compatible.2. If she?s a music lover, she might enjoy this Singing Machine ISM370 CD+G Karaoke with iPod Dock ($70) to sing along with her Janis Joplin or Tina Turner faves.? From the leaders in home karaoke, it?s complete with great features like a large LCD display for easy reading and built-in speakers for portability and easy use.? The Digital Key Control feature lets you change the key without greatly affecting the overall sound of the music.? This unit also features a charge function for your iPod and has a dual alarm clock with snooze function so you can wake up to your iPod, radio or buzzer.3. You can bring mom into the next generation of video entertainment with a Blu-ray player like the SAMSUNG BD-P1500 ($169). This little baby will play both Blu-ray discs and regular DVDs or music CDs with the highest-quality audio. Full 1080p resolution gives you outstanding HD image quality. Advanced audio compatibility, including DD+, and True-HD, offers premium sound for a great HD experience.4. Why restrict the video enjoyment to the house?? With a portable DVD player like the Audiovox D2017 ($135) with a 10.2-inch screen, mom can enjoy her films on the go, in flight or while waiting for her plane to arrive.? This features a 16:9 aspect ratio and plays DVD, CD, MP3, CDR, CDRW and picture CDs.? The rechargeable battery and car power adapter will give mom hours of enjoyment whether in house or on the road.5. For moms who are linked in almost as much as we are, a multi-function cell phone would be a great way to keep in touch.? I prefer the text-easy keyboard styles (mostly because one text message saves me about 20 minutes in actual speak time? o_O) but there are plenty to choose from in a range of prices! ? With all of its possibilities, something like the iPhone might be a little overwhelming for moms but then again, each mom is different.? If she?s a career-minded multitasker, it could be just the thing.? Check out Smarter?s cell phones here and decide for yourself.6. A simple way to help mom relax, the Sound Spa AM/FM Atomic Clock Radio ($39.99) allows her to sleep and/or wake to her choice of 6 natural sounds: ocean, waterfall, summer night, rain forest, thunder, or rain. AM/FM radio or alarm wake up are also options. Features atomic time which means it?s always accurate, indoor/outdoor temperature with remote sensor, dual alarms, and snooze. The projection feature allows for time and temp ceiling display.7. For more home music enjoyment, a mini stereo system is just right for livening up her home office or keeping her motivated through workouts.? Something like the JWIN JXCD2100 Mini Stereo MP3 / CD Player ($45.99) does a little bit of everything with a CD player, AM/FM radio, and 3.5mm auxiliary jack for her iPod or other MP3 unit.8. The Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth Headset ($54.95) is a great way to keep mom hands-free and compliant with California law.? A simple V-frame design, no ear loop and the leather charging case allows you to recharge the headset from its own battery when youre not near a power outlet.? Also available in cerise (dark plum color).9. For keeping the family memories, the Casio Exilim Zoom EX-Z77 Digital Camera ($124.69) has 7.2 Megapixels and comes in adorable pink, so you know dad won?t be stealing this one from her.? It has 3x optical zoom, and 2.6-inch LCD display.? It also features a blur reduction function that uses motion analysis technology, an auto-tracking AF system, and face detection technology.? The combination of face detection technology and the auto-tracking AF system ensures that, once the focus locks on to a person?s face, it will stay sharp and maintain the right exposure, even if the person moves.? Which is, of course, great for those grand kids who never seem to sit still for more than 2 seconds.10. For vacations, family get-togethers, or whatever she desires, the Samsung SC-DX103 DVD Camcorder ($174.08) is user-friendly and compatible with Windows 2000, XP and Vista operating systems. With the convenience of recording straight to DVD, videos can immediately be played back for all to see. Comes with 34x optical zoom, 2.7 inch wide LCD screen, and can be used as a PC cam for communication over the Internet.Find at Smarter.com:?

A terrible product with a high price. The illuminate setting casts a way too bright glare from the LCD screen, great for a night light if your afraid of the dark. During the first day in use the...
This unit seemed unique and had a lot of attractive features. I liked the projected display with time and outside temperature, plus the atomic clock,AM/FM radio,6 sound features, everything...
Love the fact that it's a sound machine and clock radio in the same piece. The clock is atomic so it resets itself automatically (a real plus in areas where power goes out regularly).
I got this alarm clock for Christmas and, while it was slightly difficult to set, I was pretty pleased with it. However, once February began the clock began setting itself on and off, often making...
This clock broke the very first day. I brought it home as a replacement for an Emerson with similar feature that had broken after having it only a year. The Timex had been plugged in for no more...
I got this for my nephew for Christmas.He seems to like it.There isn't much bass that comes out of the speakers.That is about all I know for this product.
If you "like to awaken from their sleep to the sounds of their preferred iPod tunes" (as written in the product description)...don't buy this clock. The alarm function only works with the buzzer or...
I got this item as a gift. I absolutely love it. Sound is fantastic and it works great for my IPOD. Even the radio part is great. It's a little complicated as first but once you get used to it,...
My daughter received this iPod alarm clock as a gift and was really excited about setting it up. She figured out the alarm settings pretty quickly and had her iPod playing, but after more than an...
Bought this for my 8 year old granddaughter. Good price and audio is awesome. She particularly likes that it can run on batteries so she can take it with her outside and on trips. There's a problem...
If one thing is guaranteed with a new iPod launch, it's the sound of many a mandible dropping to the floor. Not since the unveiling of the first iPod, however, has the portable media player been...
I've owned the set of Proton radio and slave speaker. The sound is incredible. I have placed them in my bookshelf headboard where they are a perfect fit of form and function. All the controls...
The first one arrived and didn't work. The second didn't either. The fact that today there are only two reviews when last month there were a dozen makes me wonder.
My wife loves the beach sounds and all of the nature sounds are realistic, the radio is a little bass heavy, and there is no tone adjustment. It works great with an iPod, but will not charge an...
Comes with the dock insert for the iPod Nano only. If you need another size dock insert, you must contact the company and they will send you . Of course, the iPod mini insert is on eternal...
This is the state of the art as far as iPods get. In almost all respects, this is the same as the fifth-generation iPod released in 2005, and commonly known as the iPod Video. Last September saw a...
Nothing can truly recreate Richard D. James' music except for a computer or a God. It is an adequet emulation of some of his best works but a lot of the tracks are totally unrecognizable,...
Seriously flawed as a clock radio, but GREAT as a laptop speaker!
Had I purchased this as an alarm clock/radio at $150, I wouild've been completely dissatisfied. However, I got it during a gold deal for $40. As noted by so many reviewers, the bright lcd display...
The design is decent although the display is barely readable. Reception is satisfying. The deal breaker is the dull sound which cannot be adjusted. How dumb to save a couple of bugs, Eton! No...
I purchased this item on a whim as I needed a radio in the bathroom. The sound quality is great if you love a lot of bass. Sometimes with the exhaust fan on (or other noise in the room)the bass...
Over the past year we've reviewed a swag of digital photo frames; ranging from tiny key chain varieties to extravagant 15 inch monsters. In an attempt to try something fresh and different, Philips...
My whole life I can count on one hand how many times I have received a new product that was broken out of the box. This was one of them! The speaker would crackle in and out, and sometimes shut...
I bought three of these because we liked a previous generation homedics sound machine. Perhaps I had bad luck with faulty returns re-sold, but the clocks didn't keep good time, the sound machine...
