    Summary:
       Clock Great - Thermometer Not
    Comment:
       I really like this clock, it was exactly what I was looking for. I was able to set the time easily and painlessly, but the thermometer always says it is 64 degrees. It is disappointing because I do like the look of it, but I just won't settle for something that only half way works no matter what I paid for it. Going back tomorrow. :o(

    Comment:
       It was a gift for my sister and she loved it. She has had it for a year now and hasn't had any problems. Easy to read, looks great and keeps great time. Useful temperature dial at the bottom.

    Summary:
       Great looking but difficult to set
    Comment:
       This clock is a great addition to my patio but I found it much to complicated to set. It takes a very particular AA battery; I had to go to 3 different stores to find the right one. The battery has to be a REGULAR alkaline battery (not super or long lasting or any other extra durable type). I started with a Kirkland battery and when the clock did not keep the correct time (like by hours not minutes) I called the customer service and was told that the battery was not right for this clock (this should have been specified in the instructions provided with the clock) and that's when my search for batteries began. Each time you put in the battery you have to press the reset button a certain number of times, then go past a certain hour and start at 12. It's a long and complicated process but once I found the correct batteries (which I suggested to customer service should be provided with the clock!) and went through the set up process for about the 6th time, the clock works great. Is it worth the trouble?? Not sure.

    Comment:
       We purchased this clock reluctantly because it was an 'atomic clock' thinking that would give us trouble and be over-complicated.

    We were correct. Although the Chaney customer service was excellent, nothing they suggested helped ... it was always way off. Perhaps the reception was not good enough, but why should one have to be concerned with the location of a CLOCK, especially one that is OUTDOORS, in order for it to work correctly?

    Avoid this product.

    Comment:
       The Chaney metal clock/thermometer that I purchased to hang outside near my arbor is very nice. I can see it from a distance when I am working outside and, as I don't wear a wristwatch, it is extremely useful. It coordinates with other aged metal accessories and lighting that I already had in place.Chaney Instrument 18-Inch Aged Metal Clock and Thermometer
