Screaming Meanie Forte Alarm Clock - Extra Large 9” Display, 6 Programmable Extra Loud Alarms, Memory Backup, Night Dimmer, Designed for Elderly, Impaired Vision

I don’t sleep very well but I also have this amazing ability to sleep through almost anything once I am fully asleep. I don’t even know how many alarm clocks I’ve gone through because they’re never loud enough and I typically have to change them every few months. This one is LLLLOOOOUUUUUUD. When I set it up and tested it, it went off and I swear my neighbors had to have heard it. The next morning when it went off I wanted to throw it through the window because I’m not a morning person and it is obnoxiously loud, but for the first time in a long time I was awake on time and I wasn’t running late, so I did not. I really like that I can change the settings on it so easily unlike a lot of other ones I’ve purchased. 10/10 recommend if you haven’t ever found an alarm clocks “loud enough”. This one definitely is.

It worked great to get my son up because it was loud. It did what it was intended to do. I don't know it was a good value for the money and it was shipped in the timely manner. It was easy to use

Description says "designed for elderly" because it's loud and easy to see. However, it's so complicated it's nearly impossible to set, and it's not very loud. The trucker version is louder and simple to use. This model is a terrible design, many of the buttons are unmarked and the softkey is unclear. Also defaults to stay ON so if the elderly person wants to wake up at 6am for a doctor's appointment on Monday, if they don't intentionally disarm it, it will alarm at 6am on Tuesday. Also seems to be designed for people with a very regular daily schedule, i.e. work at 8am 5 days a week. Many elderly people have no such schedule but instead need it for occasional appointments they don't want to miss. Don't get this model, get the trucker's model if you want a loud, easy-to-use Screaming Meanie.

Extremely complicated to use, serves it's purpose. Sometimes the countdown till the alarm displays the wrong time and has a very loud but cheap sounding speaker.

First off, the clock is huge. It looks like a tablet. But it’s hard to tell when alarms are set cuz when selected the letters are just bold instead of having an icon like most alarms. And the alarm itself isn’t loud enough. It is loud don’t get me wrong but I’ve had it 2 days now and was still late to work both days. It took 4 alarms to go off before i woke up.And also i don’t like the mounting options. To hang it on the wall is cleanest but there’s 1 tiny mounting hole. It wobbles and doesn’t feel rigid.Also the instructions is a overview of the general clock. That’s it. No detailed descriptions of what icons mean or how to select a setting or any of that. I just had to guess how to set it. Other than that it is a nice clock. Even if just being used as a date/time clock it is worth it. Big screen, multi color display. 10 alarms for a normal person this clock would be awesome.

I am a huge fan of these products. I have had trouble my entire life waking up early mornings. I have been using this new style just plug it in no 9v batteries it’s great. No button issues and fairly simple to use.

I did have some trouble with making the buttons work. The screen is great I like the display layout. I did expect the alarm to be louder. I had the older version, and it was impossible to ignore. I really like that multiple alarms can be set. But I don't like the screen colors. A decent buy, it would work for a normal person.

I love this clock!! There are so few alarm clocks out there that allow you to program each day. I have Fri/Sat off and most clocks are M-F. This clock allows me to specify nine different alarms with specific days! The only issue I have is to turn the alarm off without activating the snooze function is you need to depress and hold a button that is among five other buttons that are exactly the same. I crazy glued a metal screw nut to the one button that turns off the alarm so I can turn off the alarm when I'm dead to the world. Even with having to do that I give this five stars because I can set alarms for specific days is the week. This alarm clock is awesome! Buy it and do like I did if you don't want to snooze. Just crazy glue some small item on the off button so you know which one to press.
