Product Reviews of Pyramid Talking Alarm Clock
Product Review: Tel-Time Pyramid Talking Alarm Clock
Summary: 4 Stars
We purchased the product for my father-in-law who has advanced stage macular degeneration. It works well for him.Product Review: Totally Dissatisfied!
Summary: 2 Stars
I had the previous version of this clock for about 20 years and I accidentally dropped it! Otherwise it would still be working! This new version has more buttons and switches and harder to program. There are 3 alarm options, cuckoo, beep (which is barely heard), and rooster. My old clock actually announced the time when the alarm went off. That's why it's called a Talking Alarm Clock! And to turn it off, all I had to do was touch the large black button on top of the pyramid! This new version was driving me crazy because the only way to turn it off is to turn the clock over and on the bottom, move the alarm switch to off. This is a little hard to do when you are first waking up! The switches are so tiny, that it is hard to turn off. I kept hitting the black button on top to turn it off, only to find out that this made the clock go into snooze mode, and it would go off every 10 minutes until you turned it off at the bottom. There is also a third switch below the alarm on and off switch, which I have no idea what it's for.
I called Magnifying Aids to find out what the third switch was for, and no one seemed to know the answer. They should really hire people who answer their phones to know something about their products. I returned the clock, and will look for something that is easier to operate. In the meantime, I was told that I would be credited with the $15.00 I paid, but not for the shipping costs ($3.90). I paid UPS $10.37 to return the clock to them, plus the original shipping of $3.90. So I am out $14.27, and have no clock to show for it!!
Product Review: Very Loud Alarm Clock
Summary: 5 Stars
I owned the previous version of this clock. The soft buttons wore out and I could no longer set the time. This version has switches that look like they will last longer. My previous clock lasted at least 10 years. This clock is also very loud. You won't sleep though this if it's set on high. You also have a medium and a soft setting.Product Review: it talks
Summary: 5 Stars
I guess they changed the product and picture between the time I ordered the item and the time it arrived, because what I ordered was a "talking pyramid" but what arrived was the "tel-time" clock in the same shape. That doesn't matter. It was advertised with three different types of alarm sounds, but as far as I can tell, it has only one, which is a rooster. I had ordered these for my hard-to-wake-up children, so I thought a choice of alarms would be fun - oh well. Aside from that, the clock talks (English) and there is a choice of three different levels of loudness. As shown in the picture, there is no time display (only on the bottom in a little window for setting time and alarm), the clock only talks.
