11.5 Inch Extra Large Digital Clock with 27 Alarms, Loud Talking Time, 20 Custom Reminders, Auto DST, 10-Level Auto Dimmer, Day Date Calendar Clock for Seniors Dementia Alzheimers', with Remote

I got this for my Abuela who i take care of. She has Alzheimers. She would forget the date and time. This was very helpful. I rate it a 10 & would recommend. We love it the most because you can change the layouts, Colors as well as even put it in Spanish for her. It says the date, Time, a picture of if its sun rise or sunset as well to say the time of day. So worth the money and very good quality. It looks exactly as described.

The clock was great. For approx 4 months. I ordered it on 10/19/22 and it quit working the last week or so of 2/2023. No reason why. The clock sat on my kitchen counter facing the couch where my mother sat when she visits from next door. It was a great support for her, and me—she has some dementia and frequently asks the month, the time, the date…and as a caregiver the repetitive questions can become stressful, so she began to rely on the clock and if she forgot about the clock, I could simply redirect her to the clock. Those who provide care for an aging parent or someone with dementia would appreciate the value of what may seem like a trivial matter to most. We could change the color of the font and change the time (DST) with ease. Super simple to operate and multiple choices of display layouts, colors, brightness and sizing. I didn’t use the alarm options-but I’m sure some would. Anyway, I loved my clock and now we are back to start and me trying to negotiate her to stay through dinner and meds because of the increased anxiety that diminished orientation to time can cause. Update: within just a few days of my review, the seller offered apologies and my choice of a refund or replacement. I opted for replacement. Excellent customer service. I feel much better about the purchase now. I am upgrading my review to 4 stars and if it is still working in a few months—5 stars it will be! :-) Update—1/4/24–clock still going strong! Highly recommend based on customer service and product performance.

PERFECT! Great large display clock. Shows the day, date, time of day, and time. Great for my dad who wakes up and wonders if its AM or PM. Shows afternoon, evening, night, etc on clock. Can see it from a distance (11.6" model") and glad i got the bigger one. Has multiple display modes and even an analog clock feature.

My wife and I are well into our seventies and dealing with the many adjustments that come with our age. Being well into retirement and away from the rigid scheduling of regular employment it sometimes becomes problematic to maintain a sense of passing time. While I have, so far, managed to mostly avoid the more frustrating memory difficulties, my wife has gradually progressing issues which necessitate modifications in the way we do things. While we continue to work with doctors to do everything we can to counter the effects of advancing age we also have to make whatever adjustments we can think of to deal with issues that arise. One of those has been a sense of the passage of time. She often loses track of what day or date it is and since she has me around it is easy to ask, "What day is it?" and get a ready answer from me. But often the answer doesn't register well and it can lead to the question being repeated - on occasions three or four times within an hour. While I can and do readily provide an answer, I confess that I am only human and still working on improving my caregiving skills, so that sometimes I am unable to avoid the tiniest bit of frustration creeping into my voice as I answer her for the third or fourth time. She senses this and it upsets her, which upsets me because the very last thing I want to do is make any of this more difficult for her. I thought that this calendar/clock might be helpful. Placed below our television as you can see in the picture it is clearly visible in the entire living room yet unobtrusive. Not only does it display the date, day of the week and time in a clearly readable format, but it even shows such things as "predawn" or "afternoon" so there is no confusion as to am or pm times. Initial setup was as easy as it gets and while at this point we really don't have a need for the considerable number of alarms or reminders you can set it's nice to know they are there. Likewise, it's nice to have a remote control for the device although I doubt that it will be very useful to us so it will remain in the box for now so I don't lose it. The instructions are much, much better and clearer than what is standard for most electronic devices I've encountered, which often feature English that ranges from amusing to completely indecipherable. On the subject of the available alarms, you have five pre-labled alarms (wake up, three medication reminders and a "drink water" reminder) and fifteen reminders you can customize to display unique messages with the use of a USB drive to create the messages on your computer and transfer them to the clock. While this is a nice feature, I want to suggest that the makers of this clock could make it exponentially more useful by expanding on this concept. These reminders can be set to display on a specific day of the week, every day of the week, Monday through Friday only, or weekends only. If they could simply expand this feature to include the ability to set a reminder for a specific day of the year, these reminders could be used to display birthdays, anniversaries, doctor's appointments and so forth. I would readily trade the remote control for this added feature! Even without this potential addition, I give this product a rock-solid five star rating. I was concerned that it might be too overpowering. It is not - at all. I was concerned that my wife would not receive it well. She understands the adjustments we've needed to make and is delighted with this solution. I fully expect that we'll be purchasing another one soon for use in the bedroom. Thank you for a product that has already proven its worth and solved a small but otherwise unavoidable problem for us.

Purchased as a Christmas gift for a friend. I have an identical one that has performed great for a number of years. It keeps very good time, is easily readable from a good distance away. The design is great for any room.

No tiene botones para activar la hora, según requerimientos de una persona ciega. Para débiles visuales las letras son grandes y vistosas. Es muy lento el tecleo para programar la identificación de cada alarma.
