Customer Reviews:

Does not work for March 2007 Daylight Savings Time.......2007-03-12

This product does not work as advertised. It does not automatically update itself for Daylight Savings time for March 2007. Emerson's technology is NOT based on the 'Atomic' clock technology, which does update itself based on the low frequency radio transmission signal from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in Fort Collins, Colorado. (The NIST sends an accurate time signal across the continental United States)

All of our other clocks in our house that were not Emerson's technology did change for Daylight Savings tine on March 2007 based on receiving the low frequency radio transmission from NIST's.

Additionally, I have not been able to get any help from Emerson's support line (on-line or by telephone)for a 'fix' for this problem.

Do Not Waste Your Money.......2007-03-12

I purchased this itsm in August of 2006, and less than seven months later, it does not even work!
Ironically enough the day that it ceased to work was the day it was the day the early day light savings took effect.

Does Not Work As Advertised.......2007-03-11

The product DID NOT adjust for Daylight Savings Time as advertised. Item was purchased in September 2006, yet it wasn't configured to handle an early DST in March 2007.

SmartSet CD Player/Radio.......2006-08-01

I took the risk and bought this item without specs because I really wanted the auto time set. I've had no trouble with cd player breakage or sensitivity to motion. It has performed perfectly for almost two years now and I am very happy with the purchase.

CD player breaks easy. Bad Buy.......2004-10-02

I bought this item not from Amazon but from somewhere else but found the cd player is very sensitive to motion and breaks easy.

No specs available?.......2004-03-28

Why would anyone risk the $70 hassle of ordering a radio when basic specifications are unavailable? Digital tuner? size? I could go on but you get the idea. Pitiful. No wonder there are no reviews. There are no sales I'd guess.
