i got two of these from the same 1116 lot (what they ship in 2021) and returned one for refund (thanks Amazon). clock accuracy may seem silly when you consider you'll need to time change these manually every 6 months, but i needed a second hand i could trust for financial market watching reasons. (against NIST) one clock was 10 seconds fast per month while the other clock was 2 seconds slow per month, so it would seem getting an accurate crystal is a crap shoot here.i used a salt bath calibrated B07YY1FB9D (which was double checked against nearby weather service readings while in the shade outdoors to further confirm accuracy). i determined that one humidistat was wild and seemed to report random numbers ±9% while the second one was +7% at low humidify and +5% at high humidify, which means if i could manually recalibrate this clock then it's humidity% would be reporting fairly accurately.accuracy junkies like myself should be patient with any device you buy, as you need a few weeks of observation for the humidity% to refine a bit on any new humidistat. be advised if you live an a dry climate, this clock reports "LOW" once under 20% and considering it's calibrated high, that would mean any reading under 27% will show up as "LOW" so if you need that number to be reported well down into the teens, don't depend solely on this clock.if we could recalibrate this thing and it had daylight savings clock change logic built into it - this would be a ultimate clock to have, but sadly Marathon designers missed the mark... yet it's still better at this price point than anything else out there, particularly if you need a wide viewing angle LED (to read across a dark room) instead of LCD. other features such as alarm and usb charging are not needed by me, so i don't comment on those here, but it's nice to know they can assist should i need them.

I love this clock! It's display is bright and easy to read. Has time, temp, humidity, date and all are readable. I can easily see the time at night without my glasses. I have it on a nightstand beside my bed, so I don't have it shining in my face. I don't think it lights up the bedroom all that much. When I ordered it, I thought it was pricey, but I knew I could return it if I didn't like it. No way I'm letting this thing go. I've hooked my iphone up to the usb port to charge it and have had no issues. I use the optional color display and just let it drift from one color to the next - it's really neat!
If there's a con to the clock, setting the alarm in the dark is not going to be easy. The buttons are small and are on the back. Wish they were on top. Not an issue if you use the same alarm time every day. There is a button on top to turn it off / on that's easy to find in the dark. I would definitely buy again.

Bought this clock for my office desk; thought the color screen looked sharp and fancy. In person it doesn't disappoint. However, after a few weeks on my desk the screen got super scratched and scuffed up (and I'm an office worker, not a welder or anything intense). It's a handsome design and works well, but handle with care!

I like the size, the slant of the base which makes it easy to see at night (it sits at a lower level than my bed), the brightness, and all the information on the clock face (time, alarm times (2) and indicator lights that show which alarm is set). It also shows the date and day of week (as a retiree, it’s easy to lose track of the days!)
It was a great choice to replace the clock I had which no longer worked well. I’m very satisfied!

I loved the sleek modern look of this clock. Our existing clock was an old clock radio. With the advent of Alexa devices we no longer needed the radio and I didn't like the bulkiness of the clock radio, so I ordered two of these so my wife and I could each have one next to our side of the bed. I loved the big bright lights and the abiliity to plug my cell phone charging cord right into the front of the clock. But my wife didn't like the bright light because it kept her awake. I showed her how to dim the display and now we are both very pleased with our new clocks. Great product!

Love this quality alarm beside my nightstand. My old alarm couldn’t be relied on and wanted to upgrade mine. We have a couple of other Marathon clocks so trust their products. The USB ports come in very handy for recharging my reading lamp. The brightness adjusts perfectly for sleeping.

If the clock work reliably I think I would love it - and I needed it for near my TV. BUT - straight out of box, did nothing but blink. I am pretty good at fixing things and figuring things out, but nothing I tried work (changing electrical ports, taking out batteries, putting in batteries before and after plugging in, jiggling around cords, depressing the reset button and waiting various numbers of seconds, etc). DEFINITELY DEFECTIVE. Unfortunately, due to being a 12yr plus family care giver and having zero time for projects, I got to setting up the unit past the return time - my bad. I knew that there were some of these that didn't work straight off or failed after some time, based on others' reviews, but there were many good ones. So, count me among one of the unlucky. There is a 2yr warranty, but you have to spend probably more than it cost to return it to Canada, so to the e-recycle dump it goes and I'm still wo a clock. All these regulators are SO concerned about energy and such, but then all this new stuff lasts hardly at all (eg,TVs compared to the tube types) or is made poorly, and all that does is pile up the e-waste. It is a shameful hypocrisy, and I also consider it shameful that this company provided me with a lemon. NOT PLEASED.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not continuous alarm
Reviewed in Canada on August 19, 2022
The only thing I was looking for in this clock was an alarm that did not turn itself off after 5 minutes. Because I use it to take my daily medication, it's very important that I turn the alarm off after I have taken it. I even posted a question to the seller and it stated that the alarm had to be manually turned off. And, of course, it turns itself off after 5 minutes. I've now been late taking my medication 2 days in a row, with the usual onsetting side effects. Very disappointed in this purchase.
