Radio controlled atomic LCD bathroom clock with suction cup. Displays day, month and time with split second accuracy as it received updated radio signals from National Time Observatory. Lock action suction cup holds to any smooth surface like wall tile or . Those that are complaining about the suction cup are just using it wrong. You cannot just stick it fully assembled as it arrives, this will not allow the air under the suction cup to escape.
You need to unscrew the suction cup, you will be left with 3 pieces: the main unit, the suction cup, and a hard plastic "dome" piece. You must attach the suction cup to the surface first and alone, pressing it down firmly. Then put the plastic dome on, the outside edges of the dome will press on the outside of the suction cup preventing air from getting in. Then screw the main unit on.
If you do it the proper way, the cup will hold forever, and probably even hold several pounds (but of course do that at your own risk!).
Anyhow, on to the rest of the review. It works and looks great. It sync'd time within about 5 minutes of installing the battery (I'm in Canada). The numbers are large enough to read accross a small room like a bathroom. I don't need to use the buttons on the back at all, but they are hard to see without removing the main unit. I guess if you remembered which button you need (by counting across from one side) you could reach around and use them. I also don't get too much water on it, it's mounted high enough that it barely gets a few drops on it. But it seems to handle that and the steam just fine.
This is a great clock and I'm happy with my purchase!
