    Summary:
       WORTHLESS CLOCK
    Comment:
       Sorry to title my reviews that way but the clock is not a worth purchase: it never keeps the correct time. I agree with the other customers that rated their purchase the same way I did.

    Summary:
       Why pay for atomic if signal can't be received?
    Comment:
       I purchased this despite several negative reviews because I already had several atomic clocks, all of which received the signal beautifully. Of course, that didn't matter: this one didn't. So I had to set the clock manually by synchronizing it to my working atomic clock. I realized that I purchased this clock specifically to have a large analog clock that would never be wrong (the correct time is an issue of occasional contention where I live), but I spent about $30 more than I would have for a similarly sized non-atomic analog from Wal-Mart. Not only that, but the thermometer only ever showed 58 degrees, whether sitting in a warm car or hanging in an air conditioned hall. Total waste of time and money. If you buy this, it'll be a complete crapshoot as to whether you're getting the clock some have gotten to work for them, or its evil twin. Don't bother.

       nice clock/thermometer set
    Comment:
       so far, so good. the clock is the perfect size and color. the copper is not too shiny. it is nice quality, especially for the price. it is easy to read (not cluttered) and has all the numbers (some clocks omit some #s). i am really happy with my purchase.

    Summary:
       lousy clock ... doesn't work at all
    Comment:
       This Chaney radio controlled clock, which I bought from Amazon, is one year old and doesn't work at all. Actually, that's not true. The hands do move ... it just doesn't keep time at all. Nice looking but utterly useless. I strongly discourage anyone buying this clock; you will just be throwing your money out.

    Summary:
       OK, but doesn't auto-sync time
    Comment:
       I wanted a nice, easy to read, outdoor clock with a temperature gauge. It fully satisfies these needs and it gets 5 stars for that. I've hung it in the shade on the garage wall where it is protected from the rain.

    I didn't really care about the atomic clock feature, but since the clock is more expensive due to it, I feel it should have worked. It doesn't. Couldn't lock onto the signal. Maybe in a different part of the country it would be fine, but not where I'm at. For this reason, I docked it 2 stars.
