Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of American Innovative Neverlate Executive Alarm ClockCustomer Review: Near perfect alarm clock Summary: 5 StarsThis little unit has a lot going for it. Here's a summary of the features that I think set it apart:
* Snooze duration is customizable
* There's a descending snooze option, which reduces the snooze time each time you hit snooze until it won't let you snooze anymore.
* The alarm volume is separate from the radio/sleep volume.
* The alarm duration is customizable.
* The clock illumination can be turned off, not just lowered (helpful if you like your bedroom to be as dark as possible)
* There are three alarm settings, which can be used in any combination: every day and two seven day alarms.
* There's a nap feature, which lets you set a quick alarm without changing your regular alarm. Default duration is 20 min, but you can quickly adjust up/down from there.
* The snooze button is also a review button. Hit it and you'll see when the next alarm is set to go off. If you want to adjust the next alarm, you can easily do so when reviewing without changing your regular alarm.
* The alarm (beep, radio or media source through axillary jack) can be set to escalate in volume.
* You can easily skip the next alarm if you wake up before it goes off
* When you set the alarm, you begin adjusting from 7 am instead of 12 am. The rotary dial is also quicker than the tradition button hold-down.
* It's small - 5" square
* Has a USB charging port (useful if you want to charge your phone on your nightstand)
* Includes radio station presets
Some may consider it difficult to use, but if you understand what the two rotary dials are for and how the seek buttons work, everything becomes fairly intuitive. If they added a numeric keypad to set the time, required simultaneously pushing two buttons to turn the alarm off, displayed the next alarm information without an additional button push and provided the option to have the time announced when the alarm goes off, I think this unit would be perfect.
Description of American Innovative Neverlate Executive Alarm ClockEver since the introduction of the first and only 7-day alarm clock in December 2004, American Innovative has been logging feature requests and product improvement suggestions from our customers. Nearly every aspect of the neverlate executive is fully customizable. We've introduced the concept of alarm banks - three in all. The two 7-day banks provide two, completely independent seven-day wake schedules - his and hers for example. In addition, we've included a daily reminder bank. We are also pleased to introduce the first-ever preferences menu in a clock radio. Everything from the backlight brightness, to the alarm duration is fully adjustable. Wake to NPR news at 7:00am weekdays, your Saturday morning talk show on a different station and the buzzer on Sunday. There's no other clock radio in the world with this capability. Line-in, headphone jack and more - a powered USB port on the back accommodates an electric fan or laptop boom lamp. Each time you hit the snooze button the snooze time is cut in half until finally the neverlate executive won't let you snooze any more. You can even disable the tempting snooze button.
