    5.0 out of 5 stars Seems to be a pretty good buy, but use some common sense

    R.M. · July 26, 2020

    Some have given this clock a five star rating while others call it trash. Hmmmmmm. Undoubtedly, some buyers (such as myself) lucked out and received wonderful product while others received lemons. You could say the same about ANY product, NO MATTER WHERE YOU PURCHASE IT, but realistically, most companies would go out of business in a heartbeat if all they did was build trash. The best advice I can give you is to treat any product you buy (again, no matter where you purchase it) like a trial run. Always keep the box until the return window closes and find where your nearest FedEx/UPS/USPS office is located and don't hesitate or be LAZY to return the product if you feel it is defective or badly engineered. I would be willing to bet that 99.999% of all companies around the world would rather replace the product or refund your money than to get a bad review on Bolo or anywhere else (maybe tell them you plan to give their product a bad review and see what happens?).This La Crosse Technology 617-1485B Atomic Color Alarm Clock with USB Charging Port gave me no problems. Suspecting exaggeration on the part of some reviewers, I purposely oriented the clock in a north/south direction (something a few other reviewers warn not to do because they claim it will not pick up the atomic signal that way). Not only did it IMMEDIATELY pick up and lock onto the signal like a rottweiler biting a home invader on the behind and not letting go, but has been dead balls-on accurate ever since. It advances to each next minute in perfect lock-sync with my cell phone carrier's (and my computer's) time signals. A lucky coincidence? I think not. I believe this is a well-built product, but I'm not saying that some buyers may have received a defective product. Keep those boxes!This clock has a three-brightness display controlled by the snooze bar. The brightest setting lets the display double as a lighthouse and, along with the large digit size, can be read by most anyone (even during the day), even if they have mild vision impairment. Tap the snooze bar once and the display dims so you can get some sleep, but still read the time in a darkened room. Tap it again, and the display turns off altogether. The clock also displays the room temperature and humidity percentage with arrows indicating the temperature and humidity trends (going up, down, or holding steady). The alarm sound is an insistent but non-annoying beeping that's sure to awaken even the deepest of sleepers. The clock also displays the day, month and date in a orange color to distinguish them from other data on the display. There is even a nifty moon phase indicator and, of course, the obligatory USB port to charge your smartphone.I am sad to report that this will be my last review on Bolo. This is because I have not received answers from Bolo concerning questions I had about their Vine membership, so now I will no longer be participating in anything at all. I thank all my fellow shoppers who have given my reviews "helpful" ratings and hope all their future shopping experiences are happy and satisfying.UPDATE: I have owned this product for two years and last night it went belly up! It was a good two years, but last night the display went out and the item is now a piece of trash.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Functionality & Durability

    The unit functions great but one of the units, which has been on continuously since purchased 5 1/2 years ago recently had the display get a lot dimmer, even on the brightest setting. It is difficult to read even with the room light out.Has anyone else experienced this sort of thing?

    4.0 out of 5 stars Cool Looking Clock with One Annoying Issue

    D. · March 22, 2019

    I am something of a clock collector and purchased this primarily for its looks. The multi-color display is nice and the clock syncs reliably with WWVB. I don't use it as an alarm clock so I can't report on that feature. The moon phase feature is mildly interesting and the clock doesn't seem to heat enough internally to throw off its room temperature reading too much. Note, however, that there is no temperature offset adjustment to compensate for self-heating. Neither does the clock automatically adjust its display intensity to compensate for room lighting.The one issue that is quite annoying is the viewing angle of the LCD. The screen washes out and has a pasty white glare when viewed from above - for example, if you're standing next to your night stand. Furthermore, the screen is pretty much useless if viewed from below. Forget about putting this clock on a shelf or a higher piece of furniture. It will look awesome at eye level, but become virtually unreadable when you sit down.Despite the display limitations, I kept it because it's a cool looking clock and, of course, it keeps perfect time as long as the Fort Collins station is receivable.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed

    S. · May 29, 2024

    The ask is simple: An atomic desk clock with time, date and day of week so I can be on time for virtual meetings. Atomic so it’s accurate and so I don’t have to reset it twice a year due to the time changes.It’s only atomic if it can pick up the WWVB signal.I chose the La Crosse because I have a weather station that’s been reliable for many years and it also features an atomic clock. The weather station picks up the WWVB radio signal no problem.The clock however, couldn’t pick up paper in a wind storm.Support from La Crosse includes, “… at least six feet away from a TV, computer…”. “Computer”. This is a desk clock. What might you find on desk in this modern era? I’ll wait…Also includes, “…best near a window…”I’ve had this “desk clock” sitting on the window sill for a week at least with WWVB “On”. Nope. It refuses.Major disappointment. Maybe La Crosse has gone the way of so many other companies in common sense and quality.It’s a sad day when someone can’t even make a clock to function for its intended usage.Oh, the weather station? It sits on a counter in the kitchen and no where near a window. Accurate time. Changes when the time changes.

    Love these radio controlled clocks, takes the effort out of setting correct time! And always accurate.

    Muy duradero y preciso.

    Lo que más me gusta de este reloj es que tiene un modo en el que automáticamente se sincroniza para decirte la hora, fecha, clima y temperatura.

    Excelente valió la pena esperar la fecha de entrega.

    Love this!

    Excellent, durable and easy to program - very happy with it!

    Es menos de lo que esperaba. Actualización : Es muchísimo menos. No lo recomiendo

    M. · October 25, 2023

    The media could not be loaded. REGULAR, Y DEMASIADA INFORMACIÓN EN LA PANTALLADespués de muchos años de servicio, y ya con algunas fallas, decidí sustituir mi excelente reloj Lacrosse Technology modeloC87061. Este nuevo reloj que adquirí no es tan completo como el anterior, únicamente tiene una alarma en lugar de dos , tampoco cuenta con opción de cambiar a el idioma a español. La información es mucha para una pantalla pequeña lo cual ocasiona confusión y el color de la información de la humedad no es fácil de ver. Los botones de ajuste son difíciles de identificar. Si un producto es excelente, por qué no lo conservan o realmente lo mejoran?ACTUALIZACIÓN AL 6 DE SEPTIEMBRE DE 2024.He decidido rebajar a una estrella la calificación de este producto. La brillantez y color de los caracteres de la pantalla se han degradado y ya no pueden leerse fácilmente. No hay comparación con mi antiguo C87061. Ya no lo puedo retornar y esperaría que el fabricante hiciera algo al respecto. Definitivamente; no recomiendo este producto.
