1 out of 5 stars attractive, but does not self-set   November 12, 2008
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I give this clock high marks for attractiveness. People really like the way it looks. However, I have only been able to get it to detect the radio signal one time. It does not correct the time on its own, and it did not change to DST when required. So basically, in the end, forget about the radio-control thing. If you like the way it looks (it is HUGE), then enjoy. Don't expect that it will automatically set itself, because that part is evidently faulty.br /br /I have tried putting it in different locations, etc., to pick up the signal. No dice. It's just an inferior product in this regard. I have three other radio-controlled clocks (two digital, one analog), and they all keep perfect time, and set themselves automatically. So my feeling is that this Chaney clock uses an inferior technology. So again, buy it if you like the looks, not for accurate time-keeping.


1 out of 5 stars Chaney outdoor clock   November 2, 2008

DO NOT BUY THIS CLOCK. Sure LOOKS NICE. TOO BAD THEY DON'T WORK ! Didn't work despite following directions to the letter. Even setting it myself instead of the " automatic satellite setting" which didn't work. Sent for replacement. Worked for 4 days. Worthless junk.


2 out of 5 stars Low quality arm movement; hour hand sticks at 6   August 17, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Looks great, had no problem setting it.br /However, the hour hand is not rigidly attached to the movement, and so is a bit floppy, and gets stuck on the thermometer, causing it to stop at 6. The minute hand continues to work fine, but I have no idea what hour it is. Taking the clock down from where it's hung and holding it face down will get it unstuck until 6 rolls around again.br /Will return for something similar that doesn't have anything to get the hands stuck on.


5 out of 5 stars Fantastic clock - nice size and built very well!   August 6, 2008
Great Clock - we love it. The finish is nice and it looks fantastic out on our wall beside the swimming pool.


5 out of 5 stars This clock works great for me!   April 30, 2008

I purchased this clock for my covered patio. I love the way it looks (just like the picture) and it has operated just fine ever since I put the battery in. It's a really attractive piece and a good value for the price.
