Room Gear Talk Time

Q: Help! When I switch the radio on, the clock switches off!

A: Ask an adult to check that all five AAA batteries are fitted. There are two battery compartments, one for the radio and one for the clock. The clock battery compartment is behind the radio battery compartment

Of course, once I put in all 5AAA batteries, the clock won't quite telling the time. Apparently the clap on feature is picking up any tiny noise. Of course, I went into a quiet noiseless closet and it's still yelling the time.

So, it looks pretty, the concept is ingenious but they failed on the construction. It needs an adapter for ac option, a volume control and a sensitivity level.


Don't buy this toy!   December 14, 2003
I bought two of these last Christmas. I have exchanged them three times. The clock does not keep the correct time. It is off by about 10 minutes every two days. The batteries do not last. The entire toy is very unreliable.


Dissapointment, very poorly made   December 8, 2003

1) Batteries last about three weeks. that is 15 sets of five alkaline batteries a year. IE about $45 in batteries to run this clock for a year. so it isn't an $18 clock it is a $63 clock...or probably the most expensive alrm clock you ever bought.

The voice feature is the worst of any voice simulation I ever heard. You simply cannot understand it.

The clock turns off when the radio is on. Great can't see what time it is if you have it set to radio as alarm!

On might have expected such poor design if this had been another "character-based" merchandise, but it isn't, making the irnony of its junkyness even worse.

Gee, thats one smart girl who invented that! I cant beleive how CRYSTAL CLEAR the voice is, and how UNANNOYING and UNSENSITIVE the clock is! When i go to sleep at night, i NEVER HAVE TO CHANGE THE BATTERIES and NEVER HEAR AN ANNOYING VOICE that announces the time. I can ALWAYS SEE the time, and the wake up message is PERFECTLY AUDIBLE!!! you should buy this toy today!!
