Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Everyone can read it. Even the dog. I'm kidding! But if our labradoodle knew how to read, she'd be able to clearly make out the time. I purchased this clock for my aging aunt who moved in with our young family just this month. She has a host of medical issues that come with aging, including dementia. A month ago, you could ask her what the date was and she couldn't even tell you the year. Now, she's reminding me when she needs her insulin. Prior to the clock, she would frequently ask me what the time was and if she needed her medication. She'd also ask if we were sleeping in the next day or if it was a work/school day. After the clock, she's more in tune with our daily life. She even knows that "Walker, Texas Ranger" comes on at 8 pm at night and ends at 9 pm, when both she and my 9 year old daughter go to bed. She's also sleeping less and staying more alert through the day. This helps her sleep more soundly at night. If she wakes through the night to use the restroom, she clearly knows that she needs to go back to bed because it isn't 6 am in the morning and the house isn't stirring quite yet. I know, how can a clock do that... Right? It can't. However, just being aware of time passing and having a more routine schedule can. With all comedy aside, this clock has greatly improved my Aunt Ethel's quality of life. ***The technical details: arrived promptly, packaging intact, simple set up, easy to navigate menu/buttons, auto dimming feature is very cool, smaller than most picture frames, sets sturdily on the dresser top, and easy to read from all angles of the room even with the curtains open.*** If I had ANY suggestion at all, it would be that the product be slightly more affordable. I believe that the price point is just out of reach for those on a fixed income and might deter them from buying a product that could genuinely benefit their quality of life. I'd buy this product again. I'd recommend it to friends with aging parents, grandparents, or other aging relatives.
