American Lifetime Dementia Clock, Large Digital Clock for Seniors, Alzheimer's (White, 8 inch)

Set up is very simple with the buttons on the back and the fold out stand is satisfactory and quite sturdy. It comes with pre-installed backup batteries which means it won't lose its settings if its disconnected (it won't display anything without mains power though). It’s quite weighty so doesn't slide about much and it feels substantial and well made. The display is bright and clear with no glare and is smooth matte so doesn't reflect overhead lights or sunlight. It’s easy to read at distance and there is no discernible flicker or pixilation. It self-adjusts the brightness of the display depending on the time of day but is still clearly readable. It's designed for persons with a visual impairment but obviously its usefulness to them will depend on the nature of the impairment. It’s also very suitable for anyone who just wants a useful clock / calendar. It’s worth pointing out that the time and date will not auto-set (it has no means of doing this) and it doesn't support Daylight Savings Time which is a shame given that this is a premium item. One other niggle is the manufacturer logo on the front is a bit of an eyesore. Even with these slight negatives, I have no hesitation in recommending this device.

I bought this clock for my mother, who is succumbing to dementia and is now in residential care. I realised that without a concise summary of day, date, morning/afternoon/evening that she has no frame of reference for time or date. I particularly like the clarity of this clock's display, and the fact that there are options for date display order, as well as 12/24 hour time. I think the quality is excellent, and the fact that the display auto-dims during twilight hours is a thoughtful touch. Prior to installing it in my mum's room I set it up on my own desk and found the display curiously comforting in a world where every electronic device displays the time and date in mere numbers! This is a well designed and well made item, simple to set up intuitively using the on-screen menus, and that does its job quietly and efficiently.

This not carrack one no remote inside when I or it have remote control

We bought this clock to help an aging relative keep track of time. As she has trouble remembering what day it is as well as the date, this clock with its large display of both, together with the time period (morning, afternoon etc) seemed ideal. When it arrived the day after we ordered it (even though we had not specified superfast delivery) it worked right out of the box showing the correct day, date and time with no need for any setting up. This suggests that the internal battery will power the clock's settings for quite a while and certainly longer than a temporary power cut. The only minor downside seems to be that the instructions say clock does not automatically change time for daylight saving, so it will need to be manually reset twice a year. No different to any other clock there so its not a problem. Because we were so impressed by our purchase and the associated customer service, and importantly, as the lady in question likes the clock a lot we have ordered another one for her bedroom as well which is due to be delivered today.

Looks quite smart. Bought it for elderly forgetful parents. Display is very 'in your face' but is therefor visible from several yards away. It is quite easy to use except the buttons are all on the back and you need to look at the display whilst you're pressing them. The alarm was difficult to set at first until I realised that where it said 'off' I could click on it to change it to 'on'. Worked perfectly. Audible alarm isn't particularly loud and no volume control but my (deaf) parents seem to be able to hear it ok. Probably the best feature is that when you turn it on for the first time it comes up straight away with correct day and date etc. although the time was out by about 15 minutes. Probably would be helpful if the cable was longer but might be a trip hazard then.

Great clock. Does exactly as expected and looks fabulous on my shelf. Good size too - about the same size as my Ipad Air2. Love the display and interested to see the different settings displayed on the time zones ... like 'Morning, Night, Evening, Predawn (?? saw this at about 3am one morning). Very bright display - not sure if its adjustable as it lights up my lounge - if its not adjustable then I wouldn't recommend for a bedroom. But laziness means I just haven't read the instructions. Would I buy this again? Most definitely - in fact I've recommended it to a few friends. Only negative is the colour - I wish I had bought either the black or the white - not too keen on the wood colour its that fake mahogany brown. But otherwise LOVE IT!

Prodotto che mantiene in tutto e per tutto le prestazioni promesse. Schermo enorme, luminoso, con funzioni semplici e chiare. Cambio colore da bianco a giallo. Ottimo per persone con difficoltà di memoria.

We purchased this clock for my 96 year old mother-in-law. She was beginning to get confused about what day it was, and whether it was AM or PM. We wanted to get her a clock that she could easily read day or night, and would clearly spell out the time, date, and weekday. The clock did this wonderfully, as well as also indicting (spelling out) "afternoon", or "morning", "before dawn", etc. Unfortunately she passed away, only having the clock for a short time, so we ended up getting the clock back. I had, in the past, looked for a digital clock to be used in our family room, next to the TV. I wanted something that looked half decent, and was easy to read in the light as well as in the dark. We never found one we really liked, as the ones we tried were too bright, or didn't have a light, and always looked like old computer screen lettering. To we tried the Day Clock. It was great. First of all, it looks PERFECT. It's almost hard to believe that the clock screen contents change. It looks like its been painted professionally onto the screen. Secondly, it lights up, and is easy to read, and at night it dims so that it's still easy to read the clock, without distracting from the TV. It's also easy to adjust. The settings are both simple, and intuitive. My wife (who rarely tries to change electronic clock times) easily changed the time, for Daylight Savings Time. This highlights the only thing that I can think of to perhaps make this clock better - a Daylight Savings Time change button. Another nicety, is that it still keeps the time accurately, and when the power goes off, it will continue at the correct time when power is restored. So, as you may have gathered, we are very happy with this clock, and highly recommend it - for seniors, and for the rest of us.

Bonjour mon horloge et en panne comment vous la renvoyer

Ich hatte das Produkt bestellt für meine Oma, sie ist 91 und leicht dement, aber inbesondere bringt sie Tage und Zeiten durcheinander. Der Artikel kam dank Versand durch Amazon gewohnt schnell an. Die Verpackung wirkt hochwertig, durch genügend Polsterung kam die Uhr unfallfrei an. Auspacken, Stecker rein und los gehts. Die Einstellungen sind sehr einfach machbar. Grundprinzip: einmal auf den Menü Knopf auf der Rückseite des Gerätes drücken und mit "hoch"/"runter" durch die verschiedenen Einstellungen scrollen und mit "rechts"/"links" die Werte entsprechend einstellen. Standardmäßig war bei mir Englisch eingestellt, das war aber sehr einfach auf deutsch umstellbar. Die Display ist ausreichend groß und auch für schlechte Augen sehr gut lesbar. Man kann das Display durch eine Timer-Dimmfunktion für einen definierbaren Zeitraum abdunkeln. Ideal, falls die Ihr auf dem Nachttisch steht. Weiterhin können verschiedene Termine / Erinnerungen wie Medizin- oder Essenseinnahme programmiert werden. Zur gewünschten Zeit ertönt ein Alarm mit der entsprechenden Meldung. Eine weitere gute Hilfe für vergessliche Menschen. Es sei noch angemerkt, dass der Verkäufer sich sehr um seine Kunden kümmert: In der Verpackung lag ein Feedback Zettel bei, ebenso wurde mehrfach bezüglich der Zufriedenheit nachgefragt. Dieser E-Mail Service lief in deutscher Sprache. Insgesamt ein prima Hilfsmittel für meine Oma im täglichen Leben.

Ho acquistato la versione a 12". Il prodotto è in plastica bianca e tutto sommato si presenta bene ed assolve egregiamente al compito. Il display lcd, ed i caratteri sono enormi e si presta bene ad essere usato anche a parete. Il problema più grosso è che non c'è alcuna opzione per regolare la retroilluminazione risultando estremamente luminoso, anche con l'attenuazione notturna attiva. A livello software poteva essere fatto un pò di sforzo e permettere un po di regolazione dei colori dei caratteri. L'alimentatore switching, allegato è in versione inglese senza connettore intercambiabile, e quindi dovrete acquistarne uno oppure comperare un adattatore uk-eu. La cornice è molto ampia (circa 2cm per lato). Sarebbe stata più elegante se fosse stata più piccola. A mio modesto parere, il prezzo è un pò sopravalutato. *** UPDATE 02.04.2020 *** L'orologio perde di precisione. Va avanti di 1 minuto ogni 15gg circa, il che mi costringe a correggere l'ora. Chiederò un intervento in garanzia.
