The back display on mine ,and the replacement one they gave me, grew dim very shortly after purchase making very hard to read during the day. Also, it malfunctioned constantly. Alarms would go off even when none were set. It was confusing for my wife to set. They never even asked for the older one back they just sent another one which also malfunctioned. Very bad sign.

That means it's just going to screw with your night vision. Does anyone know of something like this but with a red display rather than blue? Thanks This sounds perfect, except the clock isn’t red!

Now for the bad points; Not all that easy to get used to as the buttons have double functions.The ones at the back are very badly placed,since the "collar" is very hard to turn,you have to grab it by the back and then all adjustments are gone. The indicator mark on the mode switch is almost invisible. This clock is very useful and should have been around long ago.

I wrote a <a href="http://the-gadgeteer.com/review/chumby_internet_appliance_clock">Chumby review</a> quite a while ago. I liked it well enough, but found that I didn't really use the features other than the clock, so it was overkill. What I really like about the Neverlate is how easy it is to set alarms. </p> Warner:

I’ve been following your various alarm clock reviews with interest, because I’d been looking for something better than what I had that would also be loud enough to wake me.
