Philips AJ 3950

Advantages: cuteness, brightness control, time projection, easy setup
Disadvantages: projection is too dim

...my baby daughter is one month today. you can imagine that this is a period in which day is night and night is day. :) my wife and I realized we need an alarm clock in the baby's room, especially one to be visible at night. the Philips AJ 3600 is so good for that. It's cute, round, and has several features that made it the best choice for us. there: 1. projection - a clever thing. AJ 3600 projects time on most flat surfaces. you can place the clock anywhere as long as there is no obstacle between the unit and the surface where you want to make the projection. for instance, you may place the clock on the floor, out of sight, and direct the projection to the ceiling. 2. quiet - being digital, it makes no sound. something one might consider for the baby's room. 3. easy to set up - AJ 3600 has on the sides several buttons...

...*Introduction* As you may, or may not, know both my family and I are great fans of anything made by Philips. We appreciate the quality and durability of all of the products they provide. I particularly like the styling and design of their product range. They are well planned and then well put together using top quality machines and materials. I feel that you can always rely on Philips to provide you with all that you need in a product. *Radio Quality* The radio isn't fantastic, but it certainly does the job. It is dualband, so it recieves the FM/AM frequencies. It is not really suited for music, but if you like to wake up, or go to sleep, to a talk show then this radio is good enough for that. The speaker isn't the greatest of sizes, so you have to place it correctly so that you can the best use out of it. I would say... Read review
