La Crosse Technology WT-8002U-B-INT Digital Black Clock with Indoor Temperature

I had an atomic clock when I lived in the mainland US that was great. When I left to go back home I brought it with me and it lasted for YEARS -- keeping time accurately even though the atomic clock function doesn't work where I live now. Originally bought from Costco at a very reasonable price. Couldn't find the same clock so I purchased another one from Amazon. It was one of those larger atomic clocks with the date and temperature. It was more than I wanted to pay but I also wanted a LARGE clock so we could see it from across the room. It was crap. I expected to have to manually set it -- but then it didn't keep the right time. And it lost various functions like temperature read out it and finally died in about a year.All of this to say that we gave this much smaller clock a shot because of the price. It's not atomic but then that didn't matter. What we were concerned about is the ability to read it across the room. We were pleasantly surprised. Even though the clock is much smaller than the previous ones we can read the time from 25+ feet away. Honestly the temperature and date read outs are smaller and we need to be closer to see them -- but that works for us. The MUCH LOWER PRICE makes that small inconvenience something we can live with.

I use this piano in my living room. It is easy to see across the room providing the time, date, day and temp.

It works. I have it in my classroom.

Can not see the time in a dark room

Very good except for the temperature reading.

I bought this clock for the wall in my kitchen. So far, the clock seems to work great!PROS:The clock has a very large display. I love the fact that it features the time, date, day and temperature. The description on the box promises that the clock can run for up to two years on a single new AA-sized alkaline battery. The clock is very attractive in appearance.CONS:The display becomes more difficult to read from an angle. Anyone who has ever owned a wristwatch or calculator with an LCD display has seen this phenomenon; so, this should be of no surprise to anyone who purchases the clock.Overall, I am very pleased with the clock. I installed a new AA battery on January 1, 2014; so, I will see how long the clock actually runs on that battery (I did not use an alkaline battery; so, it probably will not last two years. However, alkaline batteries sometimes have a tendency to leak; so, I decided against using an alkaline battery for that reason).I purchased this clock to replace an old analog clock from Westclox (which had died after 40 years of continuous use.... I give a five star rating to that old clock by Westclox for its longevity).I did see that more expensive models of clocks by La Crosse were offered. The more expensive clocks were similar in appearance but provided additional features (such as outdoor temperature and synchronization with the atomic clock in Fort Carson, Colorado). I was tempted to buy one of those clocks; but, a number of reviews complained that the more expensive clocks sometimes went through batteries far too quickly and that the synchronization sometimes didn't work, resulting in the clock being set to the wrong time. As much as the additional features of the more expensive clocks appealed to me, I decided that I needed a reliable wall clock for my kitchen. I chose this clock; because, it allows me to set the time manually. Since this clock will run for a long time on a fresh AA battery, that minimizes the maintenance, I felt that trading off features for reliability was worth it.It would have been nice if this clock had included an optional power cord for plugging the clock into a wall outlet (with the battery serving as a power backup) as well as illumination to make the display easier to read. However, it is still a very nice clock overall.UPDATEAs of December 29, 2016, the clock is still operating normally on the same AA battery which had been installed new on January 1, 2014. The clock has now been functioning well for nearly three years on the same battery (which is not an alkaline battery). The time and temperature readings have both been accurate. Overall, I have been extremely pleased with this product and would recommend it to anyone who was looking for a reliable clock.UPDATEAs of June 19, 2017, the original battery which had been installed on January 1, 2014 is now beginning to fail. The wall clock appeared to have been functioning normally on June 18, 2017; but, the display is now starting to become faint due to the weak battery (although the clock is still keeping accurate time). The clock was able to function normally for three years, five months, and eighteen days on the same battery. Overall, I am still quite pleased with the clock. It has performed extremely well for a long time on a single battery.I had originally considered purchasing the La Crosse clock with the built in atomic clock feature; but after reading the problems which other people have had with those clocks (the clocks displaying the incorrect time as well as the dramatically increased drain on the battery), I decided to purchase the clock without the atomic clock feature. My decision was the correct one. The clock kept time accurately and operated for a long time on a single battery (more than 50% longer than had been promised by the manufacturer). While the clock did not take changes between Standard Time and Daylight Savings Time into account, those occasions were the only two times during the year when I was required to manually reset the hour on the clock (which was not a problem at all, considering that I have to manually flip the page on the wall calendar once per month). The clock kept time accurately enough to where I never had to adjust the minutes. The clock's thermometer feature also performed well. Although I did not purchase the clock because of the thermometer feature, the feature still proved to be extremely useful. Furthermore, the small town in which I reside occasionally experienced power interruptions; but, my battery-powered wall clock was unaffected by these power interruptions.The clock has performed flawlessly. It is attractive in appearance. I would highly recommend this digital clock to anyone who was looking for a reliable wall clock.

Didn’t like there was noLight to read in the middle of the night.

Wanted an analog clock so I would not hear a tick from the clock, but didn't want to spend too much on it. It was easy to set, required 3 AAA batteries, and works great. Includes day, date and temperature. I do wish it had a back light to see the time at night, and wish it was a little bigger. I wanted an inexpensive clock. I know there are ones out there that include those, but prices are more expensive. I'm satisfied with my purchase, I would recommend.

First things first, this is a good, easy to read, digital clock. The time keeps well and never go ahead and falls behind. The display is easy to read. And the clock is easy to adjust.The manufacturer of this product made 3 changes to the design of this product.Take a look at the attached pictures.1. They removed the seconds from the clock and made the hour and minutes bigger. They added the year.2. They moved the adjustment buttons from the back to the top... I don't know why?3. They also tweaked the design of the LCD display on the newer model - the viewing angles in which the display is 100% visible, is different from the old.I prefer the old version better, it was easier to read at different angles (vertically, not horizontally).If you hang the newer clock up higher than 7 or 8 feet, the display fades from 100% visibility. The older display did not have this problem.

Es bueno, pero definitivamente al ser hecho en china, pues obvio es de plástico sencillo y no se nota muy resistente que digamos, no lo probaré ya que es un reloj, pero no se siente nada sólido. La configuración es sencilla y cualquiera con conocimiento básico en relojes podrá ponerlo a la hora, creo que si vale unos 10-15 usd está bien, no pagaría más por él.*Actualización: Funciona bien y todo pero no pongo las 5 estrellas por lo básico de su armado y demasiado plástico de todos tipos en su marco.

Já estávamos cansados de trocar o relógio da cozinha mesmo sendo de marca boa, sempre quebram e acho que são falsificados. Esse não tem aquele motorzinho atrás que sempre quebra, jogamos vários no lixo. Esse é silencioso e marca além das horas, temp. e data

This is the fifth La Crosse clock in my two-bedroom apartment. Large displays are easy to see even at a distance. Provides date and day information, plus temperature. Batteries last forever. I bought my first one in 2003 and it is in perfect condition and precision

Relogio muito bonito materialDe ótimo qualidade!!!
