My husband ordered me an iHome iH9 Dual Alarm Clock iPod player. They sent this one instead, tried to call it an “upgrade”. When I tried to set the insert for my 4GB second generation iPod Nano, the suggested one did not fit. I tried to call, was referred to another number that of course was to a now closed department. Found another insert that worked with my unit, tried to play my iPod, got no sound. Turns out this product doesn’t work with a first or second generation Nano. The one my husband originally ordered was supposed to work with all generation Nanos. Thanks a lot for the “product upgrade”. Can’t wait to return this!

My wife gave this to me for Christmas and both of us are impressed. I do want to mention that since it was a Christmas present I have only used it briefly. First impressions are important, and the packaging shows thought and care. Everything was carefully taped into place with sufficient shock absorbing material. The instructions are thorough enough to get you going. It even came with the backup batteries already installed
Once plugged in, I set the clock to my time zone and due to the backup batteries the time was actually correct. I then inserted my 2nd gen Nano and it played just fine so I’m not sure what problem the previous poster was experiencing. By adjusting the sound to 3D and maximum bass it sounds pretty good for a desktop device. Sure, it lacks the bass I expect from a home stereo, but it’s definitely the best sounding alarm clock I’ve ever heard. For most people it would also sound fine as a kitchen or office sound system.
In my opinion this seems to be an above average piece of consumer electronics in build and thoughtfulness. This product would be particularly useful for those who keep their iPhone nearby at all times. One of the features I was most impressed with is the number of dimmer settings; from bright to off there are eight different levels so you can select the one that’s just right. As a first impression I can recommend this product.
