Overall I am happy with the clock. It is larger than I expected, but that is my fault, I suppose I didn't pay attention. It looks very nice on my bedside table. I wasn't sure about the wake up light, but it is really nice. It wakes me up quickly, but without startling me. I am able to turn off the light and wait for the alarm to sound 5 minutes later. The light/alarm options give me choices. I am not one for backlights when I am sleeping, but I find myself turning this one on some nights. It is nice to see the time in the middle of the night (when I want it).
Clock face is easy to read. The light is dim enough when not flashing. Nice to wake up to flashing alarm before the buzzer goes off. Buzzer is also not too obnoxious but gets the job done.
I am very pleased with the Moon Beam clock. The printed directions made it easy to set up and the alarm is quite acceptable. It is sturdy and cannot be knocked over easily .
I would recommend this item to anyone who was in such of an electric alarm clock.
