Not bad but beware of automatic settings
I really liked this clock radio because of the big number display(very easy to see even without my glasses) and I liked the slimmer design. I wasn't crazy about the second alarm tone(can't set to radio)but I was even ok with that. My biggest problem was how the clock radio adjusted itself to daylight saving time on March 7,2012(a few days early)so my alarm went off at 4:25am instead of 5:25am. My husband was ready to leave for work at 5am and only realized the alarm was wrong when he put the tv on.

Great if you want to be up 10 minutes early
This clock is supposed to set itself, presumably using the time signals broadcast by the government on shortwave radio frequencies. For about 2-3 months it was spot on, even when coming back from a power failure. Ever since then, it has been getting gradually worse in keeping the correct time to the point where it's almost 10 minutes fast now. Makes the clock useless when you have to keep resetting the alarm to a different time to wake you up at the proper time.

I am highly disappointed
I am from India, and always wanted to get such a alarm clock. However, I was highly disappointed. As soon as I connected it, it went dead in 2 mins. I really respect Sony for the quality and have always been a loyal customer. Since I am located in India and I cannot even return it back to US, I just lost $20 for no reason.
