Grundig Sonoclock 560 radio alarm clock black / silver (Electronics)

Customer Review

After many years was very pleased with its predecessor - until the radio time went crazy - I have decided to remain true to Grundig. With a little clouded joy.
In a nutshell:
PLUS
- The lighting is not too bright for my taste, even when the unit is 40 cm of my head at the bedside ca.
- Large, clearly legible display (even when wearing glasses without glasses legible)
- Good radio sound
- Dual alarm
MINUS
- The control buttons on the side are much too small and fiddly
- The control buttons at the top are a joke: barely palpable, barely legible, and thus hard to distinguish. (... I now have the snooze function is enabled or disabled the alarm clock ...?)
I think just devices that one uses drowsily, clearly distinguishable buttons should have.
