Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Sleek and stylish, this compact RCA CD clock radio boasts plenty of features and full sound from its stereo 2.5-inch speakers. Setting your clock has never been easier: automatic time-set lets you simply plug the clock radio in and sit back while it automatically adjusts itself to the current Eastern Standard Time (EST). Simply flip a switch to select your time zone.

The RP3740 allows for two different alarm settings for two different users, each clearly indicated on the backlit LCD. No one likes to be woken early on a weekend, even to a favorite CD--that's why the unit offers weekend alarm cancel, with which you can program the unit with preset weekday alarms and automatically set them to turn off for the weekend.

The gentle Graduwake ramp-up alarm eases you into consciousness, while programmable snooze and sleep timers let you tailor your transitions to your needs. Last but not least, the unit offers battery backup for your settings, so you won't oversleep the morning after a power outage (two AA batteries not included).

4 out of 5 stars Hard to say..........2007-04-09

I've had this alarm for about a year now. I bought it on clearance and for the price I paid, it has given me more features than any alarm I've ever had... but yet, I kind of hate it. It it not intuitive (I always have to keep the instructions handy), the snooze button is WAY too small, the radio does not work, or even when it does you can expect to get fuzz the next time you turn it on, though you didn't touch the dial. I hate that you can't sleep to one volume and wake to another. It feels cheap and the font labelling each button looks awful. However...

It has so many great features. Waking to any track of a CD is great, I love the gradu-wake feature and, most of all, the WEEKEND CANCEL. Why every clock doesn't offer that I do not understand. I like being able to see the 2 alarm times at a glance. The nap feature is great, too.

Overall, if I could find a better, sleeker clock on the market I'd buy it. But for now, I cannot find anything comparable worthy of replacing it.

1 out of 5 stars Terrible (Non-Existant, Actually) Reception.......2006-01-28

I purchased this clock for my son to use. He immediately complained that he couldn't get any "good" radio stations, but I figured he just wasn't familiar with the controls. So I tried, and it was true - we could only get one radio station (we live in the Boston area, so there's no shortage of stations to choose from). I tried moving the clock from room to room to see if there was just a dead area in my house, but no luck. We even took it over to my parent's house to try there, and no luck.

Basically, you'll get a nice clock that will play CDs, but if you really want a radio, keep looking!

5 out of 5 stars Easy for your kids to use.......2005-11-22

If you desire, this clock will only wake you up during the week and not the weekends, or have it wake you up all week. Kids need only to push the off button and it resets itself for the next day. The display lights can be dimmed. The display tells you what time the 1st and 2nd alarms are going to go off at, and if it is going to be cd, radio, or alarm that wakes you up. Read the quick easy to read manual, and set it up, then you won't have to touch it again except to turn it off. This is my second order for this clock, because I am going to replace my current alarm clock with it!

1 out of 5 stars Should just be Dual CD Alarm Clock.......2005-05-17

I was very excited when I received this item as a gift. It has all the features I want. One of the main features I want though, didn't work and that was the radio. I had the same problem with my unit as others have had. I got 2 FM stations to come in that I like out of about 20 that I like and get in perfectly on other radios in my home. The two stations that did come in on this unit were unreliable. I would wake up late because the station would be all fuzzy that was just coming in the day before. Not good for getting to work on time! The manufacturer said that the power cord acts as the FM antenna. I tried moving it, fully extending it, etc. Nothing worked. My old clock radio I've had for 20+ years is so much more reliable and gets in so many more stations in exactly the same spot. I was extremely disappointed.

1 out of 5 stars Reception is terrible.......2005-01-28

If you want to listen to a particular station, I don't recommend this item. I tried to find a number of popular radio stations, but none of them came in clearly. I got a spanish station in clearly, but I don't know spanish and wouldn't really enjoy listening to that station. I just wanted to wake to some music I'm familiar with. That wasn't possible with this item.
