DreamSky Alarm Clocks for Bedrooms with Battery Backup, Auto Set

This is the second clock I've purchased. The first one was for my bedroom and when the clock in my living room quit working, I bought a second one of these. It came out of the box with all the settings already working--correct time zone, DST, brightness. My husband and I are senior citizens and these clocks are so easy to read (especially at night) and are very dependable. Love that the brightness can be adjusted. Would highly recommend.

For the past 20 or a thousand (I've lost count) years when I needed to know the time I relied on the cable box. It always stood at the ready giving me the correct time. It somehow magicalky seemed to know the exact moment we turned our clocks forward or back. It was a flawless system. I hadn't quite considered that when we "cut the cord" getting rid of cable a few weeks ago. All of a sudden I didn't have a reliable system for knowing what time it was. So I searched here on Amazon . The first clock I found just couldn't connect to the atomic clock at all so back it went and I bought this one instead. Perfection right out of the box. I plugged it in and it was instantly accurate. The only input it needed from me was whether I wanted it to adjust for daylight savings time (I did). The size is perfect for me. I can see it from anywhere in the room. You can set the brightness level manually. The clock also gives you the day, date, temperature, relative humidity and phases of the moon. I need to be closer to the clock to see those settings but that really doesn't matter to me. Your eyes might be better than mine. I LOVE knowing moon phases and didn't realize this clock had this setting when I bought it . I consider that a major bonus. BOTTOM LINE: great, no nonsense clock. Sets up instantly. Clear and easy to see from across the room and has other useful info along with the time, including moon phases.

Very simple setup, great brightness controls, and most importantly LOUD! If this thing won't wake you up, nothing will. Small enough to fit nicely on the nightstand without being a nuisance. The calendar and temperature are a nice plus.

I would have given this clock a 5 star rating except for a couple of admittedly very small cons. First, the temperature is consistently 2 degrees F high. I contacted the company to ask if there was a calibration process to adjust the temp but they said no. Not a major problem as long as you know the actual temp is 2 degrees F lower. You really can't expect much better accuracy in a $25 clock. The other con is definately a very personal preference and that is the volume of the alarm. Most people want LOUD - not me. I keep the clock a couple of feet away from my head on a nightstand and I prefer a VERY GENTLE alarm. This one is high pitched and (to me) shrill. It gets louder and more "insistent", i.e. FASTER if you don't turn it off or snooze it in a few seconds. I'm sure for 90% of people this is a major PRO. I'm just mentioning it for information purposes. Having said all of that, if you are still reading this, this is an EXCELLENT clock. I have the orange characters on the face and it is PERFECTLY sharp and clear. The orange does not blast you out of a dark room even if turned up fairly high - there are several brightness setting and an AUTO dim. This has the sharpest display I have ever seen on any electronic clock. Other features like a battery backup that keeps all the setting in a power failure are great - no need to reset everything. The display darkens on a power failure, but you can hit the snooze bar and get a lighted full display for a few seconds - great feature. Auto daylight savings time feature with indicator is also nice. Day of the week, month and day as well as alarm set time are always on display - alarm "armed" indicator comes on when you turn on the alarm. Bottom line- HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. UPDATE: 4/28/2026 I bought this clock on Dec 1, 2023 and have been totally happy with it except for ONE issue. The temperature reading is now 5° F too high. When I purchased it, the temp was only off 3° F, but it seems to be drifting up. Otherwise this is a perfect alarm clock. I contacted the seller when I first bought the clock and inquired if I could calibrate the temp. and was told - no it can't be adjusted and they thought a few degrees wasn't important enough to send me a new one.. If not for the worthless temp reading, it would be a perfect clock as I outlined in my original review. Everything else works perfectly. If you think a bad temp reading will bother you, look elsewhere.

Overall, a very nice Digital clock. Good price value, quality, lightweight and easy to set up. Large letters having the ability to see across the room on my dresser. The light is soft but easily recognizable. I do enjoy seeing the day of the week, temperature and the ability to use as a backup alarm. However, I use my cell phone as an alarm.

Very easy to setup and its easy on the eyes with an adjustable brightness. Its sleek and doesn't take up too much space. Not aure on the material as I assume its a decent plastic but it holds up well enough. The alarm sound is solid as it gets me up which is getting harder to do in my old age.

This is alarm clock is very easy to use & also very easy to see. The orange light - which has an intensity control - allows for relaxation without causing wakefulness so viewing it in the middle of the night, one can go right back to sleep.

I love this clock. It has a large bright display, with time, temperature, date, day of week & time set for alarm!! You can also charge your phone; which comes in very handy. The only thing I wish it had was a way to dim the light at night. Over all I love the clock.

Great cloack!!

Superb, works perfectly

muy bien solo que la temperatura que marca es la interior no la exterior

facile à régler

Je ne l'ai pas acheté comme réveil mais comme horloge dans mon cinéma maison pour remplacer les appareils qui n'ont même plus d'affichage de l'heure - comme avec les magnétoscopes, récepteurs de télé numérique, etc. Je voulais un appareil que je n'aurais pas à ajuster après une panne électrique.
