Nice clock radio but clearer operation are neede.
I bought the clock radio 3 weeks ago and am happy with it except turning off. It switches itself on even outside the 1hour alarm setting.

Brightness control
Value for money but brightness control would be better in manually controlled Very poor in dull room

Excellent quality item with great features.
My 30 year old radio alarm clock died a couple of weeks ago and I chose this new one as a direct replacement. I rate the Roberts brand, so that was a good start. The setting up requires careful reading of the instructions, as there are many options regarding the alarm (FM radio/buzzer/which days you want it to operate etc). Once it's done, the operation is easy. The oter bonus is that it has a battery so that if the power goes off, the radio does not and therefore doesn't need resetting. The size is compact and the time easy to see in the dark.

Generally below par for Roberts.
Bought this two weeks ago, instruction manual reasonably helpful. Controls a little plasticky, station tuning below average, only picks strong signals. All in all below average product.

Good make
I bought this about a month ago. I have had Roberts alarm clocks in the past. I have needed a new one, this was a good price. I found the brightness ok but the buzzer is a bit loud. Have not tried the radio yet I will in time. Could do with a quick start guide, for speed of use.

Not ideal but usable
Radio plays well but controls are too small to be practical. Also the booklet instructions are very poor making it difficult to know how to set alarms. One of the instructions is to press button 2 but there are two different buttons numbered 2. I am keeping the product now it is set up but the smal controls and images are very inconvenient.
