QUIGO Large Digital Wall Clock, 17' Huge Office Clock Living Room Kitchen Temperature Humidityu Battery Powered Big Numbers(Black)

Nice looking clock which looks very appropriate in my motor home.

The Quigo is a great large clock that I got for my kitchen, it can be seen from a distance which is good for someone with failing eyesight like myself. It has a very clear screen. It gets a good signal which means it is always at the right time

Excellent very clear face and features everything I need. Now I know at a glance what day it is!!!

I like having a clock which will always show the correct time, including when the clocks go back or forward. The design of the numerals makes them very legible, and I find attractive as well. Best numeral design I have seen for LED displays.What would be even better would be if all the info could be very large as well. I would be happy to pay more for an even bigger version.

Good

I purchased this item a couple of days ago and set it up according to the instructions. I placed it on my desk about a metre or so from the window. The tower and the wave icons steadied after about 4 minutes. Although according to the screen, the clock was in receiving mode. Ten minutes later... nothing!Having owned atomic watches for over 15 years, it is necessary to place the watch on the window ledge after taking it off and the watch logs on to the atomic clock around 2am - 5am. I tried this with this alarm clock and it eventually set the clock and calendar accurately. I removed the clock and placed it on my desk. The tower and wave icons remained on all day. The next morning the tower and wave icons disappeared. On checking the time, the clock was running 4 seconds slow. I placed it back on the window ledge and in about an hour, it had rectified the time.How can a wall/desk clock run if it can't log on to the atomic from a distance from the window. The only way this clock will keep accurate time is to permanently place it on the window ledge.Now I hear the batteries don't last more than a few weeks. It goin back and I'll look for something else.It's common enough that Chinese businesses exaggerate on their products. I purchased a cat poop scoop thinking it was coming from the UK. It was advertised as Stainless Steel, instead It came from China. It seems the Chinese don't know the difference between Stainless Steel and Aluminium.

To be honest for £11 I wasn't expecting much. The clock is cheaply made and feels it. So far it has kept time very well though the temperature and humidity gauges are pretty much fairy stories. Out of the box the humidity showed as 47% which is probably about correct. A couple of days later I did about 30 minutes of ironing and it leapt to 67%. That was a week ago and it's sitting at 56%. Putting it right next to the radiator makes no differenceTemperature is a similar story. Middle of November and it barely changes whether the heating is on or off, or whatever time of day it isComes with a short mains lead which is USB at the charger end but a proprietary fitting at the clock end. It's too short for wall mounting. There is also a USB connector which seems to work, but no mention of this in the manual. Annoyingly the connectors are on the side which is unattractive for wall mounting and even when standalone takes up more spaceSetting up is very simple and it cycles through 12/24hr, time, year, month, day as you set one. This brings me to its biggest flaw. It has no inbuilt memory at all. So if you unplug it, change the batteries or disconnect for any reason you have to start all over again with the settings. This makes it a real pain to move from room to room unless you are using batteries (3× AAA)Another dislike, the description indicates an adjustable backlight level with percentage adjustment but actually it just has Bright, Medium Low and Off. When connected to power the backlight is on always which is what I wanted, however on batteries it goes off after a few seconds. If the clock is on the other side of the room such as in my house this means you have to get up go over to it and turn on the light to see the time, pretty pointlessWhilst talking of the backlight, it is edge-lit and being a cheap product you can clearly see the uneven light around different parts of the edgeViewing angle for the LCD screen is not great so make sure its pointed straight at youI've not used the alarms so can't comment on thoseAll in all its good value for money and tells the time well. You have to take the rest of the sales pitch in context with the price

Well packed, easy instructions and readable screen .
