Description
Emersons patented SmartSet® Automatic Time Environment System. The first time you connect this clock radio to your AC outlet it will immediately set itself to the correct year, month, date, day and time in the Eastern Time Zone. If you exist in a different time zone there is one neat Time Zone adjustment to do and you will never see the dreaded flashing 12:00 display again. It will automatically reset itself each time you have a power interruption, and not just the time but your wake-up times as well. Daylight Saving Time and Jump Year adjustments are in addition done automatically throughout the year 2099.

I've been waiting a long time for this clock   2010-03-12
By K. Nichols
I've been looking for a new alarm clock for several years and have tried a few but have always been disappointed. This is the clock I've been waiting for. First, you can set the alarm to go off every day without having to reset it - when you turn it off in the morning it automatically resets for the next day. The alarms can be set to go off regularly on weekdays, weekends or both. I bought one of these for my 14 year old too, and he now has one fewer excuse for not getting up in the morning. Second, you can see immediately if the alarm is set, and for what time, without having to push any buttons. The front display shows clearly if the alarms are off or on. The best feature for me, however, has turned out to be the setting that allows the display to be totally dark until you make a movement somewhere near the clock. I've always liked a very dark room and most clocks are too bright. Any movement, even rolling over in bed can turn the display on if the clock is facing in the right direction. The clock numbers are large, which I need in order to read it withough glasses. I like this clock!
Loooove this clock!   2010-03-08
By Michael E. Franklin (Florida)
I have to have my bedroom totally dark to be able to sleep. This little gem will show you the time when you wave your hand in front of it, then go back to dark. That alone makes it worth the purchase, but wait, there's more! To snooze you don't have to even hit the button, just wave your had at the clock and like magic, you get nine more minutes of slumbering bliss. Love it!
It is more than i expected.   2010-02-25
By Silvia R. Golijov (Newton, MA USA)
This radio-Alarm clock is more than I expected. Very easy to set. The two alarm settings are convenient for setting different waking times -weekdays and weekends. The timer allows me to fall asleep listening to the radio, which turns off after 30 min. The alarm resets every day, so there is no need to turn it on every night. All in all, a very good product.
I want to like it, but......   2010-02-23
By Ron G. (Annapolis, MD)
I like the features of this clock radio----mostly. The dual alarm display is nice and just hitting the On/Off button shuts the alarm off but keeps it set for the next day. What I'm having a problem with is the display's brightness. I find it to be too bright if the unit is placed next to my bed-- and isn't that where most people place them? The dimmer has high,low,and "off/wave." The "low" is still too bright and the "off/wave," which allows full display darkness but retains the radio's features (it lights back up if you wave your hand in front of the display), comes on nearly every time I roll over, and it lights up to FULL BRIGHTNESS! If I wanted a blast of full display hitting me in the face I wouldn't want it on "off/ wave" to begin with. Why Emerson didn't link this feature to the "low" setting is beyond me. The auto-set is super fast and the radio volume--NOT the beeper, is loud. I'll probably be returning it. Too bad, because other than the display brightness I like it.
I had to buy two after I got the first one   2010-02-19
By Kerry (FL USA)
I have another clock radio, also an Emerson, that I bought with the SmartSet technology but it didn't have the ability to dim the display. My lovely wife would turn the display away from the bed so the display didn't keep her up and that did me no good since I need to know what time it is. This radio has the ability to set the display bright/dim or off/wave. The off/wave function gives you the ability to completly turn the display off and instantly turn it on for 10 seconds just by waving your hand in front of the sensor. This was a great feature!! It also gives you "wave" snooze ability by waving after the alarm goes off. People who say the alarm isn't loud enough puzzle me. Even if you don't like the loudness of the "buzzer" you can set the alarm to radio, find a station you don't like, turn the volume all the way up and if you still don't wake up ... well. The only problem is that my 12 year old daughter (who I gave the other Emerson alarm to) loved the wave function on this clock and I had to buy another one for her. I guess we can put the "old" clock in the laundry room since that is one of the few places you can go in our house and not see what time it is. This is IMHO the best clock radio on the market. The auto time/date set is a funtion of a litium battery powered memory chip and NOT a radio signal that you may not be able to get. The battery may last as long as 5 years or LONGER if your power doesn't go out often.
