This arrived and I discovered that I could not install the timy batteries without a tiny, tiny Phillips screew driver--the kind that opticians use for eyeglasses.
I returned it and I expect a refund--I;m stuck for the postage.
This clock is about the same dimensions as a deck of cards, perfect for traveling. The numbers on the lcd display are a bit on the small size. You will find yourself picking this clock up in the middle of the night and pressing the snooze/backlight button located on the upper right corner of the clock to see the time. This button placement was well thought out, much like using a stop watch. The feel of the unit has an almost "gummy" texture to it, assuring you a good grip when viewing the time at night or using the snooze feature when the alarm sounds in the morning. The weather trend indicator has not been wrong yet!!!
