Just love that retro look.
Very pleased with this purchase. In fact, I cannot think of anything negative at all. It’s quiet, clear, crisp design, and it keeps perfect time. Love the minute hand & retro look too. Topped off with my favourite colour, especially for the bedroom.

Nice looking
Would have given it 5 but no instructions inside how to set the alarm, only an on line site which I couldn't work out!

Don’t buy
Bought this for my Dad, put batteries in and light worked but clock didn’t work. Ordered it to be picked up locally as difficult to get into shops. No way to return online which was really annoying. When I took it back the assistant took 10 minutes testing it 😱 before he’d issue a refund. He informed me it did work however I told him it must be intermittent. Useless, don’t buy.

Smart great clock
Great little clock, clear display, accurate and looks good. We use it in the kitchen as all our appliance clocks keep going off with power cuts, it does the job very well and i use it to time all my cooking.

Great alarm clock
I bought this clock for my mother, she is absolutely delighted with it 👍The numbers are easy to see, it’s very quiet ticking, and the back light is great 👍 It’s a perfect size, and not flimsy at all, a really good alarm clock, actually thinking of getting one for myself 😁

Hi Nick,
Thanks for your query about the Acctim Hilda Retro Shaped Alarm Clock - Green.
No, it's not possible to set the alarm to an AM or PM time. It'll go off at the time the alarm hand is set to on the face, i.e. at that same time in the morning and then in the evening.
The back of the clock allows the option to turn the alarm on or off. What you'd do is to turn it off when you've woken up and then, before bed, switch it back on again.
Thanks for using Q&A.
