Your sleep schedule is important, so you need a clock radio with useful features. Look no further because the The ICF-CD843V truly delivers. It has a triple alarm, so you can set three different alarm times, each with the option of waking to CD, buzzer, or radio. The large dual time display shows both the current time and your alarm setting. You'll love the Snoozinator extendable snooze feature that gives you the freedom to easily choose your own snooze time instead of being held captive by the short time intervals of most snooze timers. Each press of the bar adds an additional ten minutes to your total snooze time. With just a few quick flicks of your fingertips you can add up to a full hour of uninterrupted sleep after the alarm first sounds. The Nap Timer is a cool advancement in clock radios. It's totally separate from your alarms, so you can take naps without resetting the alarm. Simply set a nap time of 10 to 120 minutes, and never worry about messing up the alarm setting. This is a perfect feature for college students or busy professionals who need quick cat naps while hard at work. This clock radio features a space-conscious design and a large, dual-time display that is backlit for day and night visibility and which allows you to see the time and your alarm-set time with a quick glance. You'll love the four-band digital synthesized tuner, providing accurate, drift-free access to AM/FM, TV, and weather broadcasts. The CD player will play all your standard CDs as well as burned CD-R/RW discs. The alarm features might be the big draw for this clock radio, but Sony has built it to deliver great sound, too. The Mega Bass sound system produces rich, deep bass tones for a more powerful overall sound and the CD play modes allow for customized listening. All together these great alarm and sound features make the ICF-CD843V an excellent choice for your home or office.

 Good Machine December 22, 2008
We have had a Dream Machine since 2000 and it got dropped and broke. this new Sony Dream Machine with CD player is great, the reception for the radio stations is not as good as the older model. We would recommend it.
 Poor Reception September 21, 2008
I replace an old "1970s" Wards clock radio with this Sony Dream Machine expecting great things. I live out in the country about 40 miles from my favorite AM stations. The Wards received the AM stations loud and clear, the Sony barely gets one station. The Wards received 5 FM stations fairly well, the Sony none. I will say the speakers produce much better sound that the Wards, but the constant on lighted display gets annoying at night, especially if you like a dark room but still want to see the time.
 Updating from the old! August 18, 2008
I had an old Panasonic clock radio bought back in 1982!!! I needed to update! I purchased this one because it had the features such as digital tuning & CD player plus I liked the size.It stands more tall than wide.It has alot of great features.I gave it a 4 star rating only because it has so many buttons. What has happened is I've accidentally bumped the wrong button in the dark and have been woke up 45 mins later cuz I hit the "Nap" button! It just is more technical and takes time to get used to.It does have excellent sound and station pulling capability.I purchased through Amazon because of others reviews and most importantly their prices!
 Sony Clock Radio July 26, 2008
I bought a Sony clock radio that Sony evidently isn't manufacturing any more. I had had one before but it was lost in a fire. The one I received from Amazon was fine and is, in fact, a better model than I had before. Everything seems to work.
It arrived a little later than I had expected--several weeks after I ordered it. And it didn't have the original paperwork, including the manual. I found a download of the manual which was ok, though not very detailed. Mostly I had to figure it out for myself how to make the various functions work.
All in all, I am satisfied with the product.
 An incomprehensible piece of junk. June 28, 2008
If you are looking for a simple bed-side clock, forget the so-called "dream machine." It arrived with a dead battery, and is impossible to set for the proper time without reference to the manual. It is completely non-intuitive, and if you have misplaced the manual--as I have--it is utterly impossible to re-set after a power failure. Don't buy this piece of high-tech garbage.
