Customer Reviews [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-20 Summary: Product is excellent, so ignore the pervious reviewer! ... First of all, this is an alarm clock... and it does what it is suppose to do very well. The idea of not buying it or complaining about it because it doesn't work in a power outage is just crazy. If your power is going out all the time, maybe you need to move to a new house. This isn't meant for an Amish lifestyle. I guess I should return my television, microwave, lamps, electric stove, refrigerator, washing machine and dryer, because oddly enough, they don't work when the power goes out either. What ever will I do. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-12-24 Summary: Ameriphone Wake Assure Clock Rocks ... I love this clock because it wakes me up every time. I am deaf in one ear and am a deep sleeper. Until now, I haven't been able to find a clock that would awaken me reliably. I have to take medicine during the night, so I need a clock that will wake me up consistently. I use all three modalities together--alarm, light flasher, and bed shaker. I think the shaker has the most effect on me. It's not unpleasant, but it does get my attention. If I were to change anything about the clock, I would add the ability to set two ...more
