Kogonee Wooden Digital Alarm Clock, 0-100% Dimmer, 2 Alarm Settings, Weekday/Everyday Mode, 9 Mins Snooze, 12/24H, Temperature and Date Display for Office, Travel, Bedroom Alarm Clock (White)

Love this clock. We are retired, and it's true, you wake up wondering what day it is! It's great to know the temperature of the living room, as we live in Montana and like to know just how Cold it is. Want to send one to my brother in Oregon, he's in the same boat as us, OLD. Do not forget to pull tab on the bottom for the battery backup. When the power goes off, it goes off too, but the battery with keep the settings. :)

Has nice features: I love the adjustable brightness, thermostat, and ability to set two alarms just through M-F.

Pros:~Very stylish looking.~Easy to read in any brightness level, day or night.~It is smaller than I thought, a little bigger than a beer can on its side, at first I was disappointed how small it is, but now I'm used to it and appreciate its sleekness.(As you can see from my pic, I put a couple common objects in there for size reference).~Convenient thumb-wheel to adjust the time, brightness, and the alarm volume. No more overshooting the time and having to go all the way back through like the old ones! In my pic, the brightness is almost all the way down. Gentle enough for dark nights.~Convenient Day/Date/Temp on display under the time- nice if you're the type of person who wakes up in a fog and doesn't know what day it is right away. No need to rush to the shower if it's Saturday and you forgot, your clock tells you!~2 Independent alarms: for instance, one for the work week & one for the weekend.~2 Alarm icons show up on screen if either alarm, respectively, is set to On.~Alarm has 2 "On" options: Monday-Friday on, or always on (and off of course).~Press one button (any button) to snooze for 9 mins, alarm icon blinks to let you know it's in Snooze mode so you're safe.~Press any button 2x to cancel current alarm.~Backup battery in the event of power failure (or the cord coming out of the back, see below, under "Cons")- note that this is only to keep the settings in the event of power failure, it is NOT to operate it w/o wall power.~Volume set has its own button you must press to adjust the alarm volume, so you cannot inadvertently turn the alarm volume down, you must press a button to intentionally adjust it, and it beeps as you adjust it for instant volume level feedback, the you press VOL again to lock it. I like that safety feature.~Time set has its own button to push just like the volume, so you cannot inadvertently adjust the time with the slider wheel.~Celsius or Fahrenheit with the push of a button~12hr or 24hr time with the push of a button~No radio. This is either a Pro or a Con I suppose. I never used the radio on my old clock so to me It's a Pro since I'm not paying an extra $15 for radio stuff inside.Cons:~I wish the Day/Date/Temp display was in a smaller font. After a while it kinda makes the display a bit busy. Not a deal breaker but it could be less cluttered, or have an option to turn it off.~The power cord is removable...this could be a Pro to some I suppose, but to me it's a Con. It's easy to pull out of the back. If it does not run on batteries (which is does NOT), then the cord shouldn't be removable, my opinion.~The power cord is visible sticking out of the back unless you're lying bed (see my pic, it's from a sitting-on-the-bed angle). From any upward angle looking straight on you can see it plain as day. I noticed the pics in all the listings conveniently do not show it, but in real life there it is. Easy to ignore? Sure. But still unsightly. The cord could plug in lower on the unit to help hide itself, but it plugs in about 1" up, and since it's wedge-shaped it naturally angles up into the realm of visibility.~No radio. This is either a Pro or a Con I suppose.So far I'm digging this little guy. Very sleek, inconspicuous and stylish.

First I'll address the negative comments that I have seen about this clock. 1. One person mentioned that the temperature on the clock was a few degrees off from the temperature outside. This clock only reads the temperature indoors around the clock. You would need some kind of wifi clock to get outdoor temperatures. 2. Another person mentioned that the day and date do not match up. When setting the clock, the first thing it asks you to do is set the year. Once you do that, the day and date will match up nicely. 3. Some have mentioned that the brightness can get so high that it lights up the room at night. The good news is that if you don't like that, it can adjust to many other brightness settings; one setting is so dim that you can barely see it during the day. That might be a good setting for when it is dark so that it can be seen without lighting up the room. (You can also set the brightness to all the way off, although I don't know why anyone would want to do that.) 4. Another person mentioned that the clock resets itself whenever it is unplugged. This clock comes with a CR2025 battery that is used to help the clock remember the time and settings whenever the clock is unplugged or if there is a power outage. It will even ring the alarm so that you won't be late for work. This is a backup measure until power is restored. The CR2025 battery is not powerful enough to turn on the display light, but at least internally, the clock still knows what time it is. There is supposed to be a plastic tab stuck into the battery compartment that you are supposed to pull out when you first get the clock, this prevents the battery from running out before you ever get the clock. For the person whose clock kept resetting, I wonder if that clock had a dead battery in it (perhaps it didn't come with the plastic tab that keeps the battery fresh.) 5. If you live in Germany, I would think twice before buying this clock. Many reviewers seem to agree that this clock doesn't work well there. I can't confirm or deny this since I'm in the United States but if that many reviewers agree, it must mean something.For my review, I personally love this little alarm clock. The aesthetics of the light shining through the wood is amazing. Others may not like how bright it gets, but I love the bright settings. It does include a button for automatic Daylight Savings changing. It doesn't have a large snooze button on top of the clock like some other wood triangle clocks do, but you can snooze by pressing any button. The power coming in is 10watts (5V-2amp), it has two USB out chargers which I believe might be 5V-1amp each. It has two alarms and for each alarm you can choose for it to ring either everyday or only on weekdays. (I wish it had a weekend only function but it does not. If you need to wake up on the weekend, you can set the other alarm for everyday, but you have to remember to turn it off during the weekdays and back on during the weekends.)

Easy to set, and keep time programmed, display is good size and very readable. Love the quality and dimmer capability. Sound is perfect for waking up each morning. Would recommend!

This click is really unique. Love it!

So far so good just wish it would be slightly dimmer at its dimmest

Great for the price, for sure. It’s not quite 0-100 dimming, though. The dimmest it gets before completely off is still a tad too bright for me at night.
