I ordered this for my son for his birthday and was very pleased with the prompt delivery date. It was delivered on the date quoted and he was very happy with it.

Excellent Transaction, I could not have been happier! I ordered this item kind of last minute as a birthday gift and was so impressed when it arrived in just a matter of days! I had it in time for my Grandson’s birthday which made me very happy! I have not been an on line shopper for long but I have learned whenever I want something fast I will always order thru Amazon!

For charging or playing my iPod nano, the iHome works just fine.

My main two complaints have to do with the alarm clock function of the iHome. I have woken up late or overslept numerous times because of this alarm clock.

1) The AC Power Adapter unplugs too easily. Any time I move the clock, plug disconnects even though it looks connected. The back up battery will keep the time set, but the alarm won't work.

2) To turn the alarm off, the button is at the top. To snooze, the bar is on the bottom. All too often, while in just woken up "Oh gawd, please let me have a few more minutes of sleep," I have reached for the snooze bar, but accidentally hit the off button because it's the first thing my hand hits while trying to find the snooze.

Great product… Doesn’t work with I-phone but has a small footprint and great sound. A plus is the night light on the sounds. It’s very useful and good looking too…

I ordered this clock expecting it to use my Toshiba Gigabeat MP3 player as an alarm. While made specifically for the ipod, the product advertises that it has a MP3 line-in jack and can play other audio devices. However, buried deep in the instructions are the words “you CANNOT wake to Line in audio devices.” Then what good is the line-in jack? The product description is purposely ambiguous on this matter, perhaps to nab a few extra bucks from unsuspecting customers. I will never buy from “iHome” again.
