Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

There are a lot of things that I really love about this clock. Firstly, the high contrast display is amazing, and it's very easy to read from any angle. I also love how much information is displayed on the clock. The clock very prominently displays the day of the week, the time of day, and the date. I especially appreciate that the date is fully written out rather than abbreviated with numbers and slashes, which ensures that there is no confusion about what the date is. If you are not happy with the default display settings, this clock is also highly customizable, much more so than any other clock I have ever owned. In the menu, you have the option of choosing the time format (12 hr or 24 hr), changing the date format (reording month/day/year), and toggling the period of the day on or off. Among the other settings are an auto dimmer, an hourly chime, and a color toggle (you can choose between a yellow or white display). This clock also supports up to five daily alarms, each of which supports a customizable message, which seems pretty cool, but I usually just use my cell phone for setting alarms, so I didn't have an opportunity to mess around with the alarm features on this clock. But ultimately, the reason I purchased a clock in the first place was so that I would know what time it was, and unfortunately this clock runs really fast compared to all of the other clocks that I have in my house. I've only had this clock for about a month, and it's already almost 2 minutes ahead of all my other clocks. By the time I noticed how much time the clock was gaining, I was already outside of the 30 day return window that Amazon offers, so I tried contacting American Lifetime about my problem. However, they said that since I purchased this product from Amazon Warehouse Deals, I was not eligible for their 1 year warranty. So as much as I love this clock, it unfortunately does not fulfill its intended functional purpose, and for that reason I have to give it a low rating.
