Talking Large Button Alarm Clock - Telling Time and Date for Elderly, Impaired Sight or Blind

I am visually impaired, purchased this talking alarm clock to put in my pillowcase. It is too loud for me, so I gave it to my teenage son who is a very deep sleeper. He is away at college and needs loud alarm clocks. It works great for him. I normally use a travel talking alarm clock, I week before my husband and don't want to disturb him, so I need a Clock that is quieter or has a volume adjustment button. Still looking for that one. But this little clock is great if you are hard of hearing, has a nice big button on its top to tap to turn off the alarm clock, or to tap if you just want to hear the time. It is nice that it is battery powered for traveling or if you don't want an electric cord getting in the way on your bedside table. It is very easy to set, just one button on the bottom.

I bought this for my blind father, and it has been worth its way than gold. Prior to this every time I would call him he would ask me what time it was and that was the only time he could get a time unless he was listening to the radio. I have now purchased a second one so he can have one in the living room where he sits and one by his bed. We have used the alarm feature and that was relatively easy to use as well. Because he is blind we did put a little bump sticker at the top so he can feel where the button is and it has been perfect.

Easy to set , easy to understand and easy to use . It's a good size and shape . This is the second one I've bought , as a gift for someone who liked mine so much . I bought one made by a different company at first , I could barely understand what it was saying and the push button was domed so if u didn't push it at the very top of the dome ur finger(s) just slipped to the side .

My mother had age related macular degeneration and was legally blind, but she wanted to know what time it was, and the date. This talking clock was perfect. She could just press the button and find out the time and date. However, she was unable to set the clock by herself, so I checked it frequently. She was also unable to change the volume. This was partly due to her eyesight but also to not remembering how. Never-the-less, this solved a big problem for her.

This has been wonderful for our nearly blind mother. She loves it! She can no longer see a digal or analog clock. It seems well made and just the right size for her end table.

Only worked for 2.5 months, then suddenly stopped working. I changed the battery, but didn't work. Because it's portable and battery operated, it was something that my visually impaired father loved, and he wants me to buy another hoping next one lasts much longer (not sure if it will), but I don't recommend you buying this product!

My 92 yr old grandmother loves this. She can barely see. The only reason I have it three stars is because we have to put new batteries in every two weeks! Once that’s done it has to be reset every time.

I bought this for my mother. When she became bedridden at 99 she lost her eyesight. She had trouble telling whether it was day or night, so this was the perfect way for her to tell what time of day it was, and what time it was. She just passed at 103, so this lasted four years and probably would have been in use for many more. Not that hard to set, batteries last for quite a while.
