I set the preset stations. I noticed that a station that is marginal in my house came in very well. That was easy and a nice surprise. I set the wake time for Mondays-Fridays (5 day), that was easy, once I got the hang of it. I also can set (or not) the wake time for Saturdays and Sundays (2 day). Not too bad. That way, I can leave the alarm on all the time (and that means no more forgetting to turn it on Sunday night). The only flaw I can see is that it is not set up to accept an iPhone in a case. You need to remove the insert (or the case) in order to use it to play or recharge the iPhone. It works without the insert, it's just not as supported and they warn that you could damage the iPhone or the connector if something hits the phone (think cats walking on the table the clock is on, or you, aiming for the snooze button and hitting the iPhone instead). I originally bought this because my son has one and I liked the sound from it and the fact that it can accept and recharge an iPhone without having to put the iPhone in Airplane Mode. If they can do it, why can't other radio manufacturers?

We were so impressed with this radio while on vacation I came home and purchased one. It died no joke after 5 days! The buttons would not work and the sound would not come through the speakers. I thought this was a fluke...so I returned it and purchased another one. Well, that one just died, as well. It took one month...but it is worthless. Won't tell time and buttons will not work at all. Totally useless. HUGE disappointment. Save your money and read reviews of this product elsewhere. VERY UNRELIABLE!!!

    Works as advertised, only complaint is, the very bright white light numbers, against the darkened background. It is difficult, in early morning light, to distinguish correct time (even adjusting for preferred brightness numbers /time display).
    A better color option, would have been, a red numbers/time display, in foreground, against the darkened background. :-(
