5.0 out of 5 stars Great little clock
Have had this for 9 months now and it still works a treat. Nice size and looks like wood even though it isn't. The cuckoo sound is quite realistic and volume can be adjusted. The little bird is cute, we call him Karl! Wouldn't be without it now.

Works perfectly. Very cute and nice size and details
4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty cuckoo clock, a bit plasticy
Nice design.Had one years ago, and it's a very similar design. Just now everything is plastic whereas with the old one it was just the cuckoo (the box and carving on the old one were wood).The other negatives versus the older one is the speed of the pendulum as it is far too fast.Battery life is a bit so so although I am using AA rechargeables (so only 1.3V vs 1.5V) with a C adaptor. A pity it the whole thing is 1xC for the clock and 2xC for the mechanism as otherwise if it was 3 x C (4.5V) then powering it via USB might be viable too.
5.0 out of 5 stars Good Value
Works a treat, obviously it looks a bit plastic and cheapish, but cant afford a real one. Found putting AA batteries in works fine, a lot cheaper than the recommended C batteroies. Yep, all in all pretty good value.
1.0 out of 5 stars Only lasts till clocks go back or forward
I have bought TWO of these clocks, Actim is a name I know, I therefore felt safe to buy. It was fine until the clocks went back an hour, I put the clock back an hour during the QUIET hours, six am came and no more cuckoo! I tried the reset (with fresh batteries) and still no cuckoo! It still kept time. Over a year later I had another one, worked fine until the clocks went forward, I now have another clock that doesn’t cuckoo! Very frustrating, very disappointing.
5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice little item!
I’d decided I’d like a wall clock for my cottage’s living room, and looked to see what was available. Spotted this and thought that my 3 year old grandson was due to visit, I’d give it a whirl. To be honest, wasn’t expecting much at this price, but I’m very pleasantly surprised. Although the casing is all plastic, it actually looks very good. The rocking pendulum creates a nice, homely sort of tick tick noise, and the hourly cuckoo chimes are still making me smile, tho now the visit is over, I might turn down the volume a tad til next time. My grandson loved it, and stood enrapt counting the cuckoos! Keeps good time, and easy to set up, once you suss that the initial setting will be 17.30, and you then wind it on from that point.
5.0 out of 5 stars We love it!
We love it!Was a bit surprised by its size, as we thought it would be bigger than it is, but doesn’t bother us at all, it’s great! Maybe just take note of the measurements before buying so when it turns up it’s the size you expect it to be as we didn’t do this!But, overall as I say, the whole family love it. It was a bit loud to begin with, but it’s easy to turn the volume down, and once you follow the instructions (which we didn’t as originally we set it up without - they fell out without anyone noticing until later) it ‘Cukoo’s’ between 6am and 10pm (I think, but it might be 9pm) - our household all get up at 6am so that’s perfect for us.Must admit it almost gave me a heart-attack the first time it went off as I’d completely forgotten about it and the volume was turned right up, made the dog bark a lot but he’s now got used to the extra addition to the family.Not sure what the cuckoos up to right now, but we tell the young kids he’s inside his little box reading the newspaper, waiting till the next hour marker when it’s time to pop out again - which really sparks the little ones imagination, they love it, the older kid loves it, we love it and now even the dog loves it. Five Stars, although I do wonder how long the batteries will last as it’s quite a busy item with the pendulum constantly moving left to right plus the cuckoo doing his thing each hour during the day, but it’s too early to tell.All in all, very happy with purchase and would highly recommend.
