About this product
The Roberts Ortus FM Clock Radio makes waking up a more pleasant affair by letting you rise to your favourite FM station instead of a jarring alarm tone. With 5 preset buttons, you can store everything from Radio 2 to your local breakfast show and switch between them instantly. The dual alarm is perfect if you and your partner need different wake-up times, and both alarms can rouse you with radio or a traditional tone. Hit the snooze function when you need those extra few minutes in bed, we've all needed that at some point.
The large LED display dims automatically at night so it won't disturb your sleep but stays readable when you glance at it. There's a headphone socket for personal listening if you fancy catching up on the news without waking anyone. It runs on mains power with a CR2032 battery backup (1 required, not included) to retain your alarm settings if the power cuts out. The simple on-device buttons mean no fiddly menus. Setting alarms or tuning stations is genuinely straightforward. Compact enough to sit neatly on any bedside table without hogging space. Comes with a 2-year manufacturer's guarantee.

Buttons that work !
I purchased this item to replace a different one I’d returned the previous day. This item has most of the features that the other one had but on this alarm clock radio, they are easy to programme & they work! The display is clear & the brightness automatically changes. The instructions are easy to follow & the snooze button operates as the on/off button. Sound quality is very good & the pre set tuning stays on the set program. I’m happy with this purchase.

Easy to set up
I had previously had a Roberts clock radio which had stopped working. This one is slightly smaller but does the same. Easy to tune the radio so really pleased with my purchase

It's a clock radio, and it works
It's a clock radio; bought to replace one that I had for over 30 years. Whether this one will last as well . . .? Hence the four stars. Maybe I'll add star in around 20 years. I haven't yet really tried properly to set up the radio. If It's anything like my old one, I doubt whether the quality will be much to shout home about; but you never know. I also haven't yet really tried it out as an alarm. I havbe no reason to supose that it won't work. Certainly the setup seems simple enough.

Works for me
Easy to set up and straightforward to operate, especially sleep mode. A previous purchase required the pressing of 14 buttons to set sleep mode. The auto-dimming function is a welcome addition. Very pleased with my purchase.

Good buy
This is a great little clock radio. Easy to set up. Sound quality is great. The only drawback is the dimming feature. It is so dim I have to put on my glasses to read it in the night.
