What is it? It is a popular alarm clock with 3 very useful features: automatic time and date settings, two independent alarms that can each be set to go off on weekdays/weekends/every day, and motion sensing technology for snoozing the alarm and switching on the display.
What are its features?
- It uses the SmartSet automatic time setting system. When you plug the clock into an outlet, the time and date are set automatically. It also automatically adjusts for daylight saving time.
- It has two alarms with flexible settings: You can set each alarm to go off on weekdays only, weekends only, or every day. You can choose to wake up to the sounds of a buzzer or a radio channel. The buzzer alarm starts out low and slow and gradually increases in volume and speed.
- The two alarms are displayed constantly below the current time.
- It has large, easy to read LED display. The display brightness can be set to high, low or auto.
- When the snooze is on, an LED blinks to remind you that the alarm is not turned off.
- It has a motion sensor that detects your hand waving motion. This can be put to two uses. First, when the alarm goes off you can simply wave your hand in front of the alarm clock to snooze it. Second, when the display is set to auto, the display is blank but it will come on for about 10 seconds when you wave your hand in front of the clock.
- It has an AM/FM radio with rotary tuning dial.
What are the benefits of using this Emerson alarm clock?
- There is no need to reset the time and date settings after a power outage or moving it to another room. When power is restored, the smartset alarm clock restores the correct time and date automatically.
- The two alarms can be used in multiple ways. You can share it with your spouse so that you can wake up at different times. Or you can use one alarm for weekdays and the other for weekends.
- Given that the alarms, when set, are displayed prominently below the current time, you don't have to worry or keep checking whether you have set them.
- The display auto option means that the alarm clock display is off while you are sleeping so it won't disturb you. It comes back on for 10 seconds with the wave of the hand should you need to find out what time it is in the middle of the night.
- The motion sensor makes it very easy to snooze the alarm for a little more sleep.
The Emerson CKS3020 SmartSet alarm clock has received many good user reviews. It is relatively inexpensive and yet comes with a number of very useful features.
