Description
This square travel alarm clock opens up to stand on its own base and folds back into a neat white case when it is time to pack. It is made from white plastic, with a white dial behind a clear front, bold pale green Arabic numerals and black hour and minute hands, joined at the centre by slim red and yellow hands. A quartz movement keeps the time, and the alarm is a plain beep. It measures about 8cm tall, 8cm wide and 7cm deep, small enough to slip into a washbag or the corner of a suitcase.
At home it suits a bedside table, a guest room or a desk, and because it closes up it is just as happy on the road: tuck it into a weekend bag, then open it on a hotel bedside or a holiday cottage shelf when you arrive. The large Arabic numerals read clearly at a glance, which matters when you are checking the time half awake. There is no snooze button, so it is a straightforward wake-up call: you set one alarm, it beeps, and the day begins. The all white case sits quietly beside any bedding or decor, at home or away.
The case is hinged, so the clock face lifts up from the base to stand upright, then folds back down inside the lid, keeping the dial covered in transit. It runs on AA size battery power, the size also sold as LR6 or MN1500, and no battery is included, so keep the right size to hand before you set the first alarm. Care is simple: dust with a soft dry cloth, or wipe the plastic case with a barely damp cloth and dry it straight away, keeping moisture away from the dial and the battery compartment. We think it makes a useful small present, ready to tuck into a travel bag before a trip.
