I am extremely satisfied with its performance, especially the alarm, which is loud enough to wake me. Se likes the temperature feature. I'm used to this alarm clock - it's simple and it does what it's supposed to do.

The size, the info and portability is just right. It folds perfectly and even fits in my purse. In addition, this clock is compact and light - about the size of a deck of cards.

The controls are under the battery cover - i never fear the clock will be changed or reset in my suitcase. Uses only 1 aaa battery, very dependable, bright backlight, good snooze alarm and folds up for light/ easy travel.

The backlight makes all the information available without having to turn on a light and adjust your eyes to a lighted room. Backlight is on demand, and doesn't glare at you all night! The blue illumination is not too jarring at night.

Having to do this every time you change the alarm is inconvenient and puts you at risk of breaking off one of the small plastic tabs that hold it in place. The am/pm sign on this clock is 1.
