I had a previous generation of this. And it had all the characteristics the commenter mentions. But I kept using it, because It Worked. I liked that it was loud. I liked that I could read the clock from across the room in the middle of the night as soon as I woke up rather than after my eyes adjusted. I didn't use "wake to music" so the wake-to-music volume wasn't an issue for me. I never had a problem at all with the controls — and I'm That Person who always requests wake-up calls in hotels because I don't trust myself to properly set most alarm clocks. I don't remember the blinking colon, but do remember that my clock would blink if there had been a power cut, to remind me to make sure the time was still accurate, or if the battery got low. I'm buying this one.

why don't you just use your phone's alarm…
because phone alarms fail if the software fails.
you are speaking in past tense - does that mean your amazing clock is broken?
What the? A digital clock that ONLY displays 24 hour format? Really? Now, that's bizarre.
Its a good price but I bought one of these and returned it. It worked well but the screen on the lowest brightness level is much too bright for the bedroom
That screen looks like I could read using it. And it's yellow like sunlight, just the thing when you're trying to sleep :|
Not very positive reviews.. Gist seems to be
Can't set alarm volume
Unintuitive controls
Screen is too bright on lowest setting
No 12 hour option
Can't disable blinking colon
Missing AM too.
