Bedford Clock Collection Redwood Mantel Clock with Chimes

The clock is beautiful and worked perfectly right out of the box. It took a little time to set it to if it is AM or PM but it is worth setting.The chime is mire electronic sounding than I expected for a clock in 2021. It still chimes nice and does the count for the hourbif you set it to do that.The settings for this clock are plentiful! I like having the volume options and digging options that are available.I find it hard to read. With the good and white face the hands really needed to be a dark and bold black for easy reading. My husband feels it is fine to read so I guess it depends on the person.All in all it is a good clock for the money and is something I would purchase again.ThanksSheila

Nice clock. Only thing I don't like is chime is a little early.

Although the clock looks pretty decent, the internal workings are awful. The opening in the back where the batteries are installed is so small that I was unable to reach in far enough with my hand to turn the volume control knob. I had to use tweezers.The worst thing about the clock is that the chimes were triggered one minute before the hour. No matter what I did I could not make the chimes trigger on the hour. I emailed the company and they sent me a replacement clock. Wouldn't you know, it, the second clock triggered the chimes TWO minutes before the hour. I assume that somewhere in the world is a Bedford clock that actually triggers the chimes on the hour, but I was not fortunate enough to get one of those.I decided to keep the first clock and set the time one minute slow so that the chimes will trigger when all my other clocks hit the hour. I think the best way to sum this product up: Made in China!

Wonderful clock with chimes. This is similar to a Daniel Dakota model circa 1980s-1990s. Rich sound and adjustable volume ( which the Daniel Dakota model did not have ). Don't get me wrong. Is it a top notch clock normally valued at a couple hundred dollars? I don't think so. However, it will make a nice inexpensive addition to one's decor and gives an antique air with the hourly chimes.One person complained of the difficulty in syncing the chimes with the hour. It's not difficult. Follow the directions using the chime button setting and it's easy peasey.

The clock is beautiful but the hands are too thin it’s hart to read

I purchased this clock over a month ago just to see how it worked. It’s great, I would definitely recommend. The sound is beautiful and the feature it doesn’t chime when you are sleeping is also nice.

well worth the money. smooth and easy transaction

The screw holding the two batteries mounting for the chimes, partially blocked one of the batteries.
