Product Description
The correct EST (Eastern Standard Time) has been preset at the factory, so just plug the clock in and adjust the time zone as necessary. In the case of a power interruption, the built-in Lithium battery maintains the correct time so you don't have to re-set the clock. When Daylight Savings Time changes take place in the spring and fall each year, there is no need to adjust the clock because the built-in calendar recognizes the dates and automatically makes the proper time adjustments. Choose your own snooze time instead of being held captive by the short time intervals of other snooze times. Each press of the snooze button adds an additional 10 minutes to your total snooze time for up to a full hour of uninterrupted sleep. Day/Night Function - Time - 12-hour system Audio Frequency Range - AM 530-1710kHz, FM 87.5-108MHz Antenna System - AM Built-in Ferrite Bar Antenna, FM Power Code Alarm - Radio or Buzzer Power Requirements - AC 120V, 60Hz Output Power - 150mW at 10% harmonic distortion Battery Life (Approx.) - Up to 250 Days with Sony battery Speaker Dimensions - 2 5/8-inch (66mm) Dimensions - Width 6 1/8 x Height 2 9/16 x Depth 5 15/16 inch (155 x 64.5 x 150mm) Weight - 1 pounds 1 ounce (495 grams)

 A solid no-frills clock November 15, 2008
I wanted something inexpensive that performed basic clock and alarm functions and this does the job nicely. The radio is pretty weak and doesn't get especially good reception. The alarm can be set to be either a beep or radio. The clock display is bright enough to read, but it isn't so bright that it affects my ability to fall asleep (I keep it right next to my bed). There are a lot of buttons and I think they could have been arranged in a more logical order. Also there are separate buttons for setting time/date and alarm which seems really unnecessary. The snooze is in 10 minute intervals and it'll last for up to 60 minutes.
 This clock works great for both of us. November 12, 2008
I recently purchased two of these Sony ICF-C218 Automatic Time Set Clock Radios. One for me and one for my sister who lives 25 minutes from me. Now, I'm a true techno geek, so I knew that I would be able to figure out how to set the alarm etc., but wasn't sure if my sister would be able to handle it. She's more of a normal person, not totally into computers and iPhones like I am. We both love this Clock Radio and neither of us has had a single problem it. I'm completely happy with my purchase and feel that I paid a very good price for two clocks that will probably be the last I ever need to buy.
Its an great alarm clock at a great value November 10, 2008
I read a majority of the reviews of this item. Its a great clock. It set itself. The only minor issue is the alarm toggle switch looks kinda flimsy.Other than that it works great.
Nice alarm clock, except for the FM Tuner November 4, 2008

Well I receive this clock like a week ago, the set up was very easy, in fact, the clock came with a battery for keep the time data without, so, I just need to adjust my time zone and that's it. The alarm set up is very easy aswell, just move to the right for late or left for early.
The BIG numbers are very nice, and the bright is good enought for see the hour during the day without disturb at night.
My only problem with this clock is the FM tuner, I live in Bogota and there are just 2 or 3 radio station with rock music, but there are like a hundred with other music, so is very difficult tune my preferred radio station because the antenna of this thing is in the power cord, so you have to expend some time (too much for me) for find the right position for tune your favorite station, maybe that's not a great deal in a small city with few stations.
 Simple clock radio November 1, 2008
This is what I was looking for: a basic clock radio. The auto setting clock is very easy to use. It uses a coin-type lithium cell as a backup for the clock during power outages. Sound is adequate (small speaker). My only complaint is that the clock display is not very bright. This can be good if it's next to you bed, but a little hard to see across a lighted room.
