Good......bad......worse.

(2 out of 5) by Kavin Moreno on Sep 17, 2007 (New York City, NY USA)
Well, I thought the idea of a shocking alarm clock was genius, and it was (for as long as it lasted anyway). The product felt a little cheap from the start, but it worked nevertheless. The shock was intense, and there was no way I wasn't going to wake up the following morning, only problem is that it started to malfunction by the morning. The alarm just wouldn't stop ringing(by the way, the bells don't serve too much pupose, as they're only there to shock you), even after I removed one battery; needless to say the shocking feature never worked again. Great idea, bad assembly; not a good combination. Although it is very likely that this was a one time thing, and I happened to be the consumer with the rotten luck, I kind of doubt it; seeing as how the product did have a pretty cheap feel to it. If you intend on purchasing the alarm clock, just be aware there is a chance that your alarm too might be disfunctional.

You get what you pay for....

Cheap price = cheap product in this instance. Worked for about a month and then went crazy. It started randomly going off whenever it chose. To make matters worse, the only way to shut the stupid thing off is to pull the battery which requires removing a screw (try doing that during the middle of the night!).
