Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Moshi Voice Control Digital Alarm Clock
Customer Review: Yes you can change the volume and set the nightlight to one color only
Summary: 5 Stars
Maybe I have a different version of this clock than other reviewers BUT
- you CAN change the volume, the buttons are on the back and there are three settings
- you CAN change the night light from single to multi so you don't have to have a disco show
- yes, there are only three sleep sounds but they last 15 minutes, not 5. Granted they are not the best, but this clock was really not made for that and would probably do best by eliminating that feature
until it is fine tuned.
- you have to speak the commands exactly as directed or you will get errors. For example, you have to say "hello Moshi" and then "set alarm" NOT "set the alarm" or it will not understand the command and do nothing.
- I would like the option of setting the nightlight to a preferred color however.
- the nightlight colors are a little too bright, but gorgeous!
- if you don't have the nightlight on in the dark, you can't see the clock. How could this have been overlooked when making this clock?
- It is made of plastic but I don't think it looks cheap. I have never had a glass alarm clock before so why should this one be different?
- it is made in such a way that if you have cats, like I do, walking around your nightstand they cannot change the settings or turn your radio on jolting you awake. This is priceless to me!
You do not have to listen to a full explanation every time you set it unless you pause too long after saying giving a command. If you wait too long, it will give you an explanation. One in a while it will confuse a command or a time set but it is rare for me. In fact, I make far more errors on clocks I have had to manually set than this clock has.
If you plug it in the wall, the unit operates by voice command but the alarm will shut off by touch or voice. If you install batteries, you can operate everything manually from the back buttons but it is not practical because they are very small. You can turn the alarm clock off by touch regardless if it running on batteries or is plugged in.
Do I think there is room for improvement? Of course!
Is it worth the $49.95? For me it was!
