About this product
The Sony ICF-C1B is a cube-shaped FM and AM clock radio that sits neatly on your bedside table and gets you up in the morning without fuss. Tune into your favourite station and store it for quick access, or set the alarm to buzzer if you prefer. The progressive alarm volume starts gently and builds gradually, so you're not jolted awake, and the snooze function gives you a few extra minutes when you need them. The display brightness adjusts to suit the time of day, and automatic summer time adjustment means you won't be an hour out twice a year.
With FM and AM bands, you've got access to all your regular stations for morning news or late-night talk radio. The single alarm setting wakes you to radio or buzzer, whichever suits your morning routine. The compact cube design fits on any bedside table without taking up much room, and the simple design with minimal buttons means you can set it in the dark without fumbling. It's mains operated with a button cell battery backup to keep the time if there's a power cut. Comes with a 1-year manufacturer's guarantee.

Customers Say
Sony Cube Alarm Clock is compact, stylish, with clear display and adjustable brightness. Alarm is loud with gradual volume increase. Radio quality is generally good but some report hum and tuning issues. Small buttons and unclear instructions noted.

Disappointed
Very disappointed. Instructions to set up and set alarm not very clear. Control buttons split between back and top. So fiddly and small to use. Eventually got it working. Unable to turn radio off, button wouldn't work. Took it back for refund

Great clock radio
I've had a Sony clock radio for over 40 years. The plastic has yellowed & it has finally stopped working. I searched online for a replacement & this compact cube came up. It's great that the brightness is adjustable. I've always preferred to wake up gradually so, the radio alarm is perfect especially as the volume rises slowly. It has been easy to tune & I would recommend.

Stylish
I bought this a few weeks ago to replace a very similar Sony Cube which had given up the ghost after many, many years of excellent service. This replacement doesn't have all the features of the original and it's not as sturdy but it does what it's supposed to do and the all black makes it look stylish. Overall I am pleased with my purchase.
