This product is just as it is described and viewed in picture. The only problem is my wife with memory problems doesn't remember to look at it so she still never knows what day it is. The numbers are big, about 3" for time and 2" for date. The numbers are really red and really bright, can serve as a night light. That's not the fault of the product. At least I'm sure of what day it is.
My Mom is legally blind but she can read this and it's helping her to remember what day of the week it is and the date and time. Thanks.
I feel the reasonable price should be at $25-$35. There is no short cut way.
I wanted him to know what time, date & day of the week it is so he'll be in touch with the real world. Three weeks ago, I bought this clock for my dad who recently suffered from a major stroke.
However, it is cumbersome to set up because if you disconnect the power plug, you have to start programming all over again, step by step, one by one.press the year then hour, minutes, month and date. The clock definitely serves the purpose why I bought it and the numbers are big & clear so he can read it very well.
It's very good for people with disabilities. It is also very pricey at $100 and it doesn't come with a radio.
My dad insisted that it has to have a radio because he said it was too expensive just to be a clock.
As everyone mentioned, this is great not only for the elderly but perhaps for a business--so customer's can clearly see the time and date.I only had two issues with it (one of which made me return it). The first was the unnecessary leading zero in the hours digit, it makes it difficult to read the time quickly sometimes. The second was the AC wall wart adapter got a little uncomfortably hot after being used for a couple of hours.
When I ordered this clock from Amazon, it was delivered really fast. One of the things I like best about this clock is that if you unplug it or have power failure, when the power is back on or you plug it in, it has the correct time.
The only way she would know the day and date was to look at the newspaper. It took my mom about a week to get used to this clock.
My brother and I bought this clock for my 90 years old mother who has dementia. It beats using a night light.
After that she really liked it. The clock is bright and will light up a room at night.
However, if you should have to correct the time, it's very simple to set this clock. This clock was pricey, but I think it's worth it.
