Product Description |
| The CKW2000 dual alarm clock radio by Emerson keeps you in the know with its NOAA weather alert system. It utilizes Specific Area Message Encoding (S.A.M.E.) technology which eliminates annoying alarms that don't apply to your specific area. In addition to audible alerts, the LED indicators inform if the alert is a "warning", "watch", and "statement". The CKW2000 includes Emerson's standard clock radio features including: Sure-Alarm battery backup system, gradual buzzer alarm, wake to radio alarm, and programmable 90-minute sleep timer. The 20-station preset memory allows you to program up to 20 of your favorite radio stations - 10 AM and 10 FM. The 2.5-inch dynamic speaker delivers smooth sound that makes it great for everyday use or to ease you awake in the morning. |

I'm not sure if the previous reviewer set up the SAME technology (weather reporting) settings correctly. You have to call in and get YOUR specific codes for your counties to set it up. You will also need to enter what "weather emergencies" you want the alarms to go off for - flash flooding, blizzard warnings, severe thunderstorm warnings, etc.
Anyway, we LOVE our All-Alert clock radio. With the severe weather we've had this summer in Iowa, we wanted to be sure that something would wake us up in a tornado warning to take the kids downstairs. This has done that - twice... which is well worth the money I spent. Once, I was watching our local weather newscast (severe weather was in counties west of us and was headed our way) and the meteorologist's weather alert "buzzer" in his weather room went off at the EXACT same time as this All-Alert radio, so I know that we are getting severe weather alerts when the meteorologists are.
This is a great device and potential life-saver. It's constantly out of stock at our local Super Target and it's a high-reorder item there. I like that it is a combined alarm clock - it simply replaced our existing bedroom alarm clock without adding another electronic device/cords to the bedroom. I'd definitely buy it again!! |
Good price and function

| I like the combination of a weather radio and dual alarm. This unit also has improved reception over previous models that I have owned, both in the weather radio and am/fm functions. The price was also attractive. I liked the first one so much that I bought another one for my second residence. |
Living in FL, I love this radio!

| I bought this radio from Target for under $30! Easy to program and the alerts are timely indeed! Only problem...can't find replacement power cord. My cat chewed the original one and the batteries don't last long. Othewise, the radio's a valuable asset. |
Works as advertised!

| Received my radio a promised. Takes about 5 min to set up, and that includes the call to NOAA to get your local area weather code. Very easy and intuitive set up. Very well thought out design, user friendly. I was suprised that it has an extendable antenea (but it also comes with a small wire antenea for those who prefer). AM reception is decent, FM is OK. Sound quality is well...kinda what you'd expect from a clock radio.. Then again, I realized I wasn't buying a stereo.. I think this will serve it early warning purpose well and I am happy with the product. I recommend and am considering buying several of these for Holiday gifts for my loved ones... |
Great Radio!

| Once you get this radio set up, it's perfect! Keep the instruction manual handy just in case you forget how to do an activity. The manual is very simple to use and setting up the SAME technology for storm warnings is great! I would recommend this alarm to anyone that is in need of storm warning- especially if you are in the Midwest. |
