I ordered this clock after looking at it for months in the catalog, and just love the look of it! The lighted face is just bright enough to see the time, but not too bright. I am a light sleeper, and lighted faces on other clocks have disturbed my sleep. I ordered the yellow and love the color as well.
This is the perfect alarm clock. I have 2 of them now that work great. I did have an older one that broke, but since it is from LL Bean, I simply called and they replaced it for free. That one was an older model.
One thing to note: you can only snooze 3-4 times. After that, it will not alarm again and you'll just keep sleeping!!
I bought this clock several years ago because I loved the look and the simplicity of it. However, the face is extremely bright, enough so that I had to drape a dark cloth over it to be able to sleep. Additionally, if the blinking light doesn't wake you up, the bone-jarring alarm will. As much as I loved the looks of this clock and the idea of waking up to a light instead of sound, this clock ended up in our guest room primarily because of the difficulty in setting an exact wake-up time. You just line up the alarm hand on the face with what you *think* correlates with the right time, but it could be off by a few minutes from what you intended.
