Amgico Digital Alarm Clock with Snooze, Temperature, Auto Dimming, 11.5" Large Display Calendar, Desk/Wall Clock for Bedroom, Living Room, Office, Home, Classroom, Kids, Elderly - Rainbow

Short story: It's bright, colorful, and really nice to read in the darkness. Setting it up is easy. Comes with a remote to help with set-up, too.Longer story:Bright and colorful.It's not so bright that it's annoying, but even if it is, there's a way to turn that down to a very soft, dim setting. Colors still show up very nicely that way, too. My daughter's room is near pitch-black with her curtains drawn, and while the clock doesn't light up the room, it's good enough to not hurt her eyes when she wakes up and wants to know what time it is (before bolting for the bathroom).Setting up is easy.The buttons aren't the most intuitive things, but it's not hard to figure out what they do and how they work when one first messes with the settings. With the instructions, it becomes very obvious how to set up the clock. I enjoy that it has the ability to do 12 hour or 24 hour time. I don't expect my daughter to want to use 24 hour time, but it's a nice learning tool to have when she gets to wanting to learn how to read and translate it. Date and day of the week displays are nice to have, too, and it's awesome that it reads the temperature in the room, too. No, it's not the most accurate thing, but it's close enough to help me figure out if she needs more blankets in the Winter or if she needs less in the Summer. (Ultimately, she'll do all that herself anyway, but that's besides the point.)Now, mounting tools.It comes with stick-on hooks that you can use to mount the clock tot he wall or screws with anchors. Both are great, but I'd argue with how light this clock is, you probably don't even need the anchors. (Unless the clock's user will want to handle the clock often or will try to use the clock to hang off of or climb on.) I've got the clock hung a few inches from the ceiling, as my kiddo has a tall loft bed and would be able to see it best that way. I wouldn't personally use the stickers, even if I were renting an apartment. I've seen more damage come from those than it is just to fill in a few small holes from nails or screws. That said, I have some confidence that those 3M strips that peel away from a wall easily will also do great holding up the weight of this clock. If you don't mind the sticker-hooks that come with the clock, though, they look sturdy and reliable enough to me. As for the cord, get creative! Decorate the cord with some faux leaves or colorful feathers. You can even paint it to match the color of the room's walls to help hide it. Personally, I just had the wire lining the frame of her closet doors all the way down to the outlet. Thankfully, the cord was just long enough for such a thing.Back-up battery?I set it up just to test it outside of my daughter's room. After unplugging it in the living room, it was about a minute before I was able to plug it back in at my daughter's room. The clock remembered nothing, so I had to set it all up again. I haven't fully tested out how well this clock remembers anything for something like a brown out, but I know it would do terribly in a black out; You'd have to do set-up again, but that's really not hard to do, especially since it comes with a remote. If you're able, plugging this into a battery back-up system's not a bad idea, but unless black-outs happen a lot and you need the alarm to work, I'd say it shouldn't be a deal-breaker.Speaking of the alarm....Personally, didn't test it. With its position in her room, my daughter has no use for it to be an alarm clock. (Her Alexa device would suffice well enough for that.) She also would have no way of being able to turn it off... although this clock also comes with a remote that can control the alarm, so she could snooze or dismiss it that way. However, the remote is so slim and compact, I can see her losing that VERY easily.If I didn't already have clocks for my own room, I'd be tempted to have my own colorful wall clock, too. This thing's got a nice-sized display and is really easy to set up however I'd like it to be. If I find the need, I'd definitely buy another one of these, even as a gift for a friend or something. (Or a baby shower! This would be great for a baby's room... especially for very tired parents during the first few months. Best way to help them keep track of the time and days, I think, haha!)

I needed a replacement for my large number digital clock in my bedroom. I like the large numbers so I can see what time it is without having to put on my glasses each time. This clock is a WINNER all around. It is super bright and I can see the numbers easily. You don't need to set it on 4 ( brightest ). That lights up the whole room.....lol. Setting number 3 is perfect. And, a bonus is that is shows the date and room temp. And, it is thin & fits anywhere. It's easy to set and looks great on a table, shelf or wall. Didn't test the alarm yet. This was a real deal.

Love this clock! The colors are bright and vibrant without being too much like a rainbow. You can change the brightness level and even set an alarm. The remote works perfectly. great quality and display size, easily seen all over the room.

I like this thing! I've bought two so far. One for my office at work and one for the room where I get ready in the morning. It' brightness is adjustable - so that's cool. I love that it has the date, day, time and temperature! Keeps me on track! The screen is large and visible from a reasonable distance. So far, I've just used it on table top - or on the top of a shelving unit. I haven't used the mounting pieces, but it does come with them if you want to mount on the wall. It also has a remove that makes it so much easier to set after a power outage. I don't have to retrieve it from the top shelf to set it, just use the handy remote! If I had a similar need again, I would purchase again! I've had the one in my office for over a year and just recently purchased the one in my "get ready" room.

Easy to view time/calendar, alarm and temperature display

Bought one for my elderly mom and then had to buy another my elderly aunt. They love this clock. It stays lit up, day or night which is important to them. Large, clear, easy to read display. Took a little maneuvering to figure out setup as neither came with instructions - easy enough for a younger person but might’ve been difficult for the intended recipients here (I thought just an oversight but it happened twice?)

Looks great, easy to read. I bought two of these. Only one of the remotes work... Fortunately, I use both clocks in the same house, so one remote is enough... and it is a good thing I have at least one remote because both clocks lose a minute or two about every month. I regularly have to calibrate them both. I needed two more at another location and bought models that automatically update via WiFi. That should have been my move from the beginning.

I noticed someone with this clock and the colors and setup caught my eye. I purchased one for the class and it's perfect! Loves the colors. The brightness is great and adjustable. So far so good.
