The craftsmanship of the exterior of this clock is exceptional! The rotating pendulum is mesmerizing! The quality of the musical chimes is beyond compare! I wish there was an option to shut off the light sensor for the chimes. On a dark day, not enough light for the chimes to play.

We are lovin' this clock! Although manufactured in China, the quality is striking. Woods are finished very well, and there are no ragged, ill fitting pieces. This is a very handsome clock, and it looks great sitting on our fireplace mantel. The chimes can be very loud, but the volume control works smoothly and has incredible range. I have it adjusted to the point that we can just hear the clock chime while watching television, and it is not annoying or obtrusive. Sound is very realistic. The clock keeps accurate time and has been on the button for about 3 weeks, since its arrival. Follow the setup instructions CLOSELY, or you may very well end up with the chimes being out of sync with the actual time. This is not a defect, but an error in setup. If this happens, take the batteries (2 C batteries) out and start over. The only improvement that I might recommend for this clock is that the numerals be a dark brown or other contrasting color, as the bright gold numerals can be hard to see against the light clock face.

I like how beautiful the clock looks and that you can play either the Westminster Chimes or the many songs. My only real complaint is that there is no volume adjustment. The songs are too loud for my taste. I'm happy that they stop at 10:00 p.m., but sometimes starting at 6:00 a.m. is too early. I also wish the same songs would play at the same time each day to help me know what time it is without looking at any clock. However, because there are 16 different songs, and 15 times they play, the songs are at different times each day. The only other minor dislike I have is that the Westminster Chimes aren't completely accurate in that the chime that plays the hours (1:00, 2:00, etc.) should be different than the last note of the "song". I've been debating on whether or not to return the clock, but I think I'm going to keep it.

Very nice clockI had this less than a week now. It looks very nice, and the sound is very realistic. I love the features, and the realistic pendulum. Well worth the money, the wood to finish is exquisite. Keeps very good time as well.

Stunning

This is so amazing. It's absolutely Beautiful. My husband and I saw it at a friends house and simply fell in love at first glance. The swavarski crystals that spin in the base are mesmerizing and the two tone face is just stunning. When you add in that it also plays beautiful musical sounds, it's just a work of art. I couldn't be happier that this is now in my living room for everyone to enjoy.

This was a beautiful clock. Nice real chimes for Westminster, and fancy music box sound for songs. However, the pendulum was missing and the chimes were not in sync with the clock. The second day it was an hour off, the next few days it was three hours off. Returned.

This clock is beautiful in every way. The tone of the chimes to the accuracy of the time. It is solidly built and hopefully it lasts forever!
