  Love this clock!
By Clasina J S., LA in May, 2012

•   Fits well on my cluttered night table. Alarm wakes me up! A deep sleeper. I recommend this clock.

By Grace D., WA in April, 2012

•   Good clock.....works fine and is the perfect size.

  You Won't Wake Up
By Lynn N., MA in April, 2012

•   Was looking for a simple clock that didn't require taking it apart to change time every time I changed time zones. This is it, except, the sound is too faint. Too bad.

  excellent product
By Anonymous in April, 2012

•   I was delighted with the clock and for the price an excellent buy. It works well and is easy to handle.

  Training Alarm Clocks- Visible Across the Room- Small and portab
By Andrea H., TN in March, 2012

•   I needed a few small clocks to put around the room when I'm conducting a training class so I can stay on time. These are unobtrusive and the teams can use them to make sure their training exercises finish on time. Bonus is I can use the alarms at night and not worry about the hotel's faulty wake up call system!

  A Great Clock
By Lisa T., ON in March, 2012

•   What's not to like about this clock: it has a large easy-to-read dial, it's easy to change the time (no need for complicated sequences of button-pressing such as on digital clocks), and it is small and packable. It is now my go-to travel clock. I have one in my office (surreptitiously tucked behind a pencil holder so I can see the time without obviously craning my neck when a long-winded person has corralled me) and one in my travel kit.

  Perfect
By Adeline O., VA in March, 2012

•   Just what we wanted. It is light, easy to adjust times and set alarm, takes only one battery, light ticking noise, noticeable but not obnoxius alarm. Bought two - one for home, one for travel.

  Easy to read
By Judy E., HI in March, 2012

•   This clock is easy to read. The time and alarm is easy to set.
It is compact enough to fit in my cosmetic bag.


  Great little travel clock
By kathleen C., OR in February, 2012

•   Very easy to set the alarm, very easy to read the clock face. Alarm sound is quite adequate. Small and light weight. Should be a good traveler. We use it daily at home.

  Not luminous
By Carol L., MA in February, 2012

•   Bought this a few years ago as both my husband and I like to have a clock when travelling. It is a great compact little clock but it is not luminous. The only way that I can tell what time it is during the night is to press the light button

  travel clock
By Chris M., CA in February, 2012

•   This is a small easy to read travel alarm clock. Easy to set and not complicated at all. I hate all the new self setting other clocks. It does have a ticking sound so if this bothers you, it would not be your clock.

  travel alarm clock
By M. S. A., TX in February, 2012

•   The description said this travel alarm clock has a very loud alarm. Not so! I would return it if I still had the box. It does keep accurate time.

  Mini-Time Alarm Clock
By Janet W., NJ in February, 2012

•   The clock is junk. Can't open the bottom to insert batteries.

  Low tech alarm
By Karenb A., BC in January, 2012

•   I bought this for my husband who wanted a simple no instruction travel alarm clock and didn't want to put his glasses on to set it at night. This fits the bill exactly and I would have given it 5 stars except that the plastic to the battery compartment was welded shut or likely never cut all the way through on the assembly line. It doesn't come with a battery and I nearly broke my fingers trying to get it open. My husband tried also, but gave up and finally, after I found a razor thin knife was able to cut through the welded plastic and the cover popped off. The clock works fine, however, It is unfortunate that we scratched the clock performing surgery to remove the battery cover. We had the option to return it, but what a hassle returning items from Canada and my husband wanted to start using it.

  Fabulous little clock
By Teresa M., MI in December, 2011

•   I have had ths clock for years - it doesn't have a loud ticking noise that drives you crazy at night , the alarm is plenty loud enough and best of all it is something my grandchildren absolutely have to pick up and carry around the house when they come to visit.

  endable companion
By B H., GA in November, 2011

•   I have traveled for years with this little, easily read alarm.
After 15 years it is time for a new one. Mine finally gave out.
The alarm is loud enough to wake me---a comfort if I wasn't sure I was going to wake easily.


  Perfect Easy-to-Set Dependable!
By Elaine A., NY in October, 2011

•   There is an immediate gratification to setting this clockand relaxing, knowing it is done correctly! Digital clocksfrustrate me, requiring 30 clicks just to get the country timezone, let alone the time. I have carried this to Iceland, Europe, Belize and more. Best little workhorse!

  Great Little Clock
By Lawrence F., CA in September, 2011

•   This is a great little clock for the money!! Simple to set. Compact. Keeps great time. The alarm has not let us down yet!

  The best little clock
By Maureen L T., KY in September, 2011

•   I love it and am just ordering another one, b/c I left it in a motel room. Inexpensive, easy, small, no digitals (I hate digital clocks).

  Alarm clock
By Soo Yun K., CA in August, 2011

•   I like this alarm clock the best among all others that I tried.
It is light-wighted, traditional, conservative and easy to operate.


  Great !
By Anonymous in August, 2011

•   I had this clock for many years and left it in some hotel room. I had to have another one. This is it, my new clock will travel with me for a long time. It's the best clock to have one you can for sure count on.

  Magellan's Mini-Time Alarm Clock
By Colleen D., FL in July, 2011

•   This is a great little alarm clock for traveling. It is extremely easy to operate.
I would highly recommend it for anyone to use. Works great at home too! Takes up little space!!!


  Mini-Time Travel Alarm Clock
By Anonymous in June, 2011

•   The alarm works great but I cannot see the time in the dark.

  Versatility in a small package!
By Pam B., NE in May, 2011

•   This wonderful little alarm clock is easy to read and even offers a snooze feature. It's a perfect alarm clock in a small package. I use it everyday.

  Just the right size!
By Roberta S., NM in May, 2011

•   My husband had this clock years ago and it had a hard fall and cracked. We've been looking for another one like it and just happened across it in the catalog. He loves the small size and the luminated hands. He has it on this nightstand and we take it when we travel too.

  Simple and dependable.
By Makio N., TX in March, 2011

•   I bought this clock many years ago for my mother. She loved it and always kept it by her bed and traveling. When she moved back to her old country Japan last year because of her old age (96 years old.)
She lost her clock and none of the replacement have not satified her.
So she call me in U.S and ask the same clock. Simple and old fashioned like my mother it is dependable and easy to use.

Thank you for kept this clock on your catalog.


  Great size
By Sandy C., CA in March, 2011

•   I ordered this clock to replace one just like it that I had used for years as a travel clock. The case finally broke after years of trips in a suitcase. Now I use this one at home in the bathroom just to have a clock that doesn't take up any room at all. Plus it helps me get to work on time! It is just what I wanted.

  Great little clock.
By Kathy H., ON in March, 2011

•   Love this clock. It is very clear and lights up in the dark with a push of a button. The alarm is loud enough. I just love it and it is just the right size.

  Love this little clock
By Di S., CT in January, 2011

•   This will be our third little alarm clock. The first one wore out and now we are buying a 3rd one, so we can keep one for bedroom and one for traveling. We call it the "peeper" since that's how it sounds when the alarms goes off...not too annoying. Please, Magellan, don't ever discontinue this clock!

  Love this little alarm clock
By Peggy S., OH in December, 2010

•   My husband and I own several of these little alarm clocks - one to keep in the suitcase, one by each side of our bed. This clock is easy to set and read, a great size for travel, and has an alarm sound that's loud enough without being annoying.

  Best Little Clock!
By Carol A., OK in November, 2010

•   My second Mini-Time Travel Alarm Clock. My first in 2002 became my personal alarm after we returned from Paris. The lovely way it gently wakes you is wonderful. And the dial being dark unless you push the button to see the clock in the middle of the night is wonderful. I wore the first one out. And was truly frustrated while I waited for the 2nd one to arrive in the mail. Now I wake gently each morning and can push the snooze. I always take this clock when I travel. Best little clock.

  Simple is best!
By Pat C., TX in November, 2010

•   We've been looking for a small, simple clock for a long time. My wife had a small one like this that she's used at home for over a decade and when it finally died, after being dropped too many times, we thought it would be hard to replace. All the digital travel clocks have too many buttons and dials and too many "features". This clock is perfect! Easy to set and use and is the right size to travel with if you want. We bought 2 this time, so we'll have a spare.

  Great little travel clock
By Roger U., CA in July, 2010

•   This is the third travel clock I've tried recently. The first one talked which was annoying. The second one had an alarm so faint it could hardly be heard. This one works great. We just took it on a trip to Montreal and it performed as expected. I highly recommend this.

  Love this clock!
By Lois T., MD in July, 2010

•   Accidentally dropped my original clock and was forced to replace it. Use it all the time, not just when traveling, which we usually do a lot. With family coming for a visit and always wanting to use my little travel alarm, I decided to order three more to have an extra or two available. Just wish one thing. My original clock came with a case for travel -- the new ones came without any case.

  A great little clock with a small problem
By Daphne S., GA in July, 2010

•   This is a great little clock--easy to set and to read with a corner touch light to illuminate when needed. The only problem is that the knob that sets the alarm came off and so the alarm can no longer be set.

To be fair, this clock has known some extensive traveling, and at this price I'll probably order another one. But what a pain for such a minor mechanism to cause such a failure in function!


  travel clock
By Corey M., ND in July, 2010

•   I've needed a small and dependable clock to take with me on my diving vacations.

  Tic toc
By Mary O., CA in June, 2010

•   Great product...keeps accurate time, it is quiet....we use it at home and for travel...reasonably priced.

  Great little clock
By Marianne D., MD in June, 2010

•   We recommend this clock with only reservation: Make sure you're not tired when you set it! If you are, you might set it for the wrong time (not hard to do) and panic in the morning. If we had it to do again, however, we'd buy this same clock again.

  Mini-Time Travel Alarm
By Wade I., VA in June, 2010

•   Pros: battery size, alarm volume, ease of operation.
Cons: a tad thick, but not unmanageable to pack.


  A little gem
By Anonymous in June, 2010

•   This alarm is tiny, handsome, and silent. Just what I wanted. Will be a much-used companion, at home or for travel.

  Eh, it's okay...
By Veronica T., MA in May, 2010

•   Was looking for an alarm clock that wasn't bright at night and chimed rather than beeped. Okay, got both of those things, but turns out the ticking keeps me up.

  Alarm Clock
By Anonymous in April, 2010

•   I like it very much.I hate Digital Alarm Clocks/

  Time Flies
By Teri T., WA in March, 2010

•   This is a great travel clock. It takes up very little space and is easy to see. It uses a regular AA battery so you don't have to look for a special number or code.

  Great Little Alarm Clock
By Elizabeth A., MI in February, 2010

•   Love this little alarm clock. It is easy to use, always works, and lightweight. This is my second one, I use one at home and the other one is just for travel.

  Travel Alarm Clock
By Elys M., NC in February, 2010

•   I found it to be exactly what I needed. I has a great size, light weight and easy to use. I wanted something functional and easy to use. No need for high tech. Great product at a great price

  great little travel companion
By Lucie G., MI in February, 2010

•   This little clock weighs almost nothing to tote along. I was on a tour that took us to seven different hotels; they all varied in their services for wake-up calls, etc. This clock was our mainstay for assuring that we'd meet every deadline (and, of course, available meal!). I highly recommend it.

  easy-going clock
By Gail A., TX in January, 2010

•   This clock is very easy to use... easy to read from across the room... and is very lightweight... just easy-going...

  Little Clock - Big Time
By Jean C., AL in January, 2010

•   It's super little and weighs practically nothing. Takes up hardly any space at all but is bright enough to see well.

  Great clock, to bad it was cracked
By Robert B., CT in December, 2009

•   This is our second mini travel clock. The first one was wonderful, but we lost it traveling after many years. We also like it because the light switch is noiseless, so nobody gets disturbed in the middle of the night.
Unfortunately our new one arrived with a crack in the face.
Still 5 stars.


  About as basic as it gets
By Gerry M., ON in December, 2009

•   My wife wanted a basic alarm clock, one that does not require a manual to figure out how to set the time, time zone, alarm time, etc., and which does two things - tells time, and wakes you up. This is it!

One minor quibble - there are two setting "knobs" for the time and the alarm time. The centre one sets the alarm, one offset to the side sets the time. This feels counter-intuitive; one usually ends up using the wrong knob at first, but of course this is quickly noticed and easily corrected.


  Alarm Clock
By Lana H., DE in October, 2009

•   This is the best alarm clock! This is my second one, I use it every day. Easy to read, easy to operate.

  Mini Time Travel Alarm Clock.. the best!
By Denise W., CA in October, 2009

•   This is an ideal travel (and home) alarm clock. Big numbers, easy to use, loud alarm small size. I have bought three for around the house and for travel.
Great product


  This clock rocks!
By Ellen K., NY in September, 2009

•   This clever little alarm clock is compact and very easy to use, with easy to read numbers.

  Simple, Solid. No Fuss
By Ryan B., IL in August, 2009

•   Why get a complicated device to wake you up in the morning?
Small, light, easy to use. Quiet (but not silent) ticking alarm clock.
Easy to know you have set the alarm since the top alarm button is pulled up and you see a yellow mark.
Very pleased with it for the past weeks.
Hoping to get many many years of use out of it.


  Good size for travel
By Raymond A., CA in July, 2009

•   good size , keeps accurate time, but alarm needs to be louder

  Indispensable Clock
By Patricia H., OK in June, 2009

•   It is very small so it fits in any bag, weighs nothing even when the battery is installed and takes up such a small area on the miniscule nightstands. Just perfect!

  Great For Travelling
By John S., HI in June, 2009

•   This clock took the place of my "very old" (28 years) Timex cube clock. This one works great as the volume of the alarm is nice and loud and changes if you don't turn it off. My only complaint; It could have a louder alarm like my old Timex, but this will do nicely!

  Quiet Awakening
By Barbara F., CA in June, 2009

•   If you don't like to be startled when you are awakened, this little clock will serve you well. The longer you take to wake up, the more it builds in volume. Since I awaken without much nagging, I found it to be just right. It takes a tiny space in your luggage, and it completes its assignment.

You can't set an exact time, like 3:15, but you can adjust it to meet your needs. When I am not on the move, I use it on the weekends so I don't have to reset my regular alarm.

By Ariadna W., CA in April, 2009

•   It is light in weight,easy to use dials and not expensive

  Best travel alarm clock ever!
By Martha W., IN in April, 2009

•   Small, reliable, the perfect ascending alarm, and an easy night light as well. I've used these to travel over 4 continents and 20 years. Love it and you will, too. The small square size is very stable on the nightstand which is another real plus!

  Second Time Around
By Irene F., BC in March, 2009

•   This is my second Mini Alarm. My husband bought the first one many years ago, and it saw travels to the Bahamas, Hawaii, Mexico and Europe. When he passed away I continued to use it on my trips. However the back plate would no longer stay on and the battery kept falling out, so I retired it and bought this one. It is much lighter than the old one, so is perfect for backpacking. I have not used it on a trip as yet, but use it at home, where the soft, gentle alarm wakes me in the morning.

  Great little clock!
By Diana K., NY in February, 2009

•   This item was just what I was looking for, and just as you described it. Thank you.

  Magellans: a remarkable resource
By Lindy A., WA in February, 2009

•   I have ordered on numerous occasions from Magellan, security passport holder, small travel clocks, and other things. Their products and service stand are fantastic. I keep their site bookmarked, and recommend the site to anyone and everyone who might be considering travel purchaess.

  Good Analog Clock
By Louise M., WA in February, 2009

•   I love the crescendo alarm--it actually get louder, and it is in a hertz range that my husband can hear. He has selective hearing loss due to past military service. He travels a lot; but he also uses it as his regular alarm clock at home. There is the problem--it ticks. I can't sleep in a room with a clock that ticks. I plan to try another model. Snooze button should be on top--too easy to turn off and go back to sleep.

  Mini Travel Alarm
By Anonymous in February, 2009

•   I like the size, weight, price and readability of the face of this little travel clock. I'm still not sure whether or not the alarm will always wake me up. I don't think it rings louder and louder if you don't turn it off right away. I think it just rings faster and faster.

  Almost the best
By Anonymous in January, 2009

•   This is the second time that I have ordered this product. The only reason I ordered this again is, after a few years, the back cover fell off. My husband purchased a similar product in France about 5 years ago. What I prefer to the higher priced French version is simply the addition of a snooze button. These are used on a daily basis, not just for vacations. You can not beat the compact size and light weight.

  Best clock--mine lasted 12 years all over the world many times.
By David D., CA in December, 2008

•   My Mini-Time just broke (only the alarm function broke--the clock works) after 12 years of hard, almost everyday usage all over the world in all kinds of conditions. It is the best travel clock for the following reasons: 1. Loud alarm. I need that. 2. Takes one AAA battery, easy to replace, available all over the world, lasts 1 to 2 years. 3. Durable. 4. Easy to set and insure that it is set right. 5. Has a light button for night. 6. Has a snooze button 7. Very lightweight. 8. Easy to read.

  Perfect travel clock
By Sonia K., OH in November, 2008

•   My clock worked perfectly and reliably, and is light and easily packable. I give it top marks, and was sorry to read that some others had "lemons." Hope the mfg. can improve quality control on this item.

By Anonymous in October, 2008
•   I love these alarm clocks. I had one for YEARS that just recently stopped working. I live/travel/work overseas quite a lot and these clocks are the best - I always have to have one! In fact, I ordered (2) this last order to make sure I had one in reserve.

By Anonymous in October, 2008
•   Quite simply the best alarm clock - absolutely quiet and reliable.

By Bruce M., FL in September, 2008
•   Ordered 2 of these.One will not keep time properly.That's so unusual these days,I had already thrown away the invoice that I expect I need for a replacement.

By Anonymous in September, 2008
•   This is the smallest, easiest to pack, most efficienct clock for travel I have ever used. It has been all over Asia with me several times!

By Judith P., TX in August, 2008
•   Very effective. I took it on a trip with late nights and early mornings and it never failed to awaken me. Doesn't take up much space.

By Mary W., FL in August, 2008
•   I have used this clock around the world and love it for traveling. However, it is extremely difficult to set the exact time on the alarm.

By Anonymous in August, 2008
•   This clock worked great on my trip to Europe. I wanted to take a small clock but one with a loud alarm to wake me in case the wake up call didn't happen. I would recommend this clock to everyone.

By Anonymous in June, 2008
•   I purchased this clock two weeks ago, went on a trip abroad, and the clock stopped working the second day. To make it work, I have to bang it a few times with whatever I have on hand, but it runs for a couple of hours and stops again,. Very frustrating.

By Claudio, CA
•   I bought this travel alarm clock in 1998. 9 years laters, this clock still works with only 1 battery change. It's been on trips with me worldwide. I use it everyday as my alarm clock. Rugged, very good quality, easy to use, and very reliable.

By Anonymous
•   I am reordering this wonderful clock and use it every day not just to travel. Absolute best value. Wears like iron and the battery seems to last forever.

By Anonymous
•   If you're lookin for reliability, simplicity and efficiency (only 1 AA battery), this is an excellent choice for a mini alarm clock. Our family has grown up with several of these travel alarm clocks and they have proven to be bullet proof.

By Anonymous
•   Like the previous reviewer, I've also been trying to replace my lost clock, just like this one. It's the best -- the pleasant alarm is easy to wake up to -- the clock is durable -- the light works well. Great at any price, but the low price makes it especially attractive. I'm ordering 2!

By Anonymous
•   I have used and worn out several of these great little clocks. I first purchased it for travel, then realized it worked the best for me to wake up every day at home as well. I'm a die-hard circular dial (non-digital) kind of person, so this just fits me. The only flaw I've found concerns the small button for illuminating the dial. Over time the contacts seem to wear out, thus rendering the night light inoperable - but I still love it and just use it with the ambient room light. But every few years, I decide I want the light again, so now it's time again to purchase one, and the price is quite affordable.

By Anonymous
•   I have one of these clocks,use it on a shelf in my bathroom everyday.I bought it in 1988 for a trip backpacking through Europe.It's corroding,but still running!! I'm thrilled to see it here, am ordering a replacement for my original.

By Anonymous
•   I'm buying two more. I've tried about 20 travel alarms over the years. This is the smallest, lightest, no-nonsense alarm, with the loudest sound. I use it every day and for travel. I'm very hard on travel alarms, but this one lasted well. I lost one of these, crushed one, tried a coulple of other alarms, but I'm going back to this alarm clock, best I ever had.

By Anonymous
•   This is a *great* little clock. I have been trying to find a replacement for the one I had lost but could not remember where I bought it or who made it. What makes it a superb small alarm clock: 1) it is silent - does NOT make an irritating clicking; 2) has a SOFT initial alarm that does not shock you, then a crescendo. Perfect little alarm clock.

By Anonymous
•   This is a great little clock for travel. So compact, yet solid enough to withstand some travel-bumpage. I love that I can see the numerals in the dark very well, and the alarm is perfect - loud enough to wake me but yet not jarring. An improvement would be to provide a little padded case for it to travel in.

By Anonymous
•   This is the greatest and easiest to use. Wonderful to have the night light and the sound alarm that starts out soft and then increases so it doesn't scare you awake. But my first one didn't last long but I'll buy again.

By Anonymous
•   My recently purchased Mini-Time Travel Alarm is worthless. The clock stops without ringing at the time set for the alarm. This has happened repeatedly.

By Anonymous
•   One hand glows a little the other hand and numbers do not glow enough to be even visible let alone useful. Really a disappointment. Also the night light feature is designed so poorly that it washes out the numbers on the dial making them undiscernable at night.

  Love this clock!
By Clasina J S., LA in May, 2012

•   Fits well on my cluttered night table. Alarm wakes me up! A deep sleeper. I recommend this clock.

  You Won't Wake Up
By Lynn N., MA in April, 2012

•   Was looking for a simple clock that didn't require taking it apart to change time every time I changed time zones. This is it, except, the sound is too faint. Too bad.

  excellent product
By Anonymous in April, 2012

•   I was delighted with the clock and for the price an excellent buy. It works well and is easy to handle.

  Training Alarm Clocks- Visible Across the Room- Small and portab
By Andrea H., TN in March, 2012

•   I needed a few small clocks to put around the room when I'm conducting a training class so I can stay on time. These are unobtrusive and the teams can use them to make sure their training exercises finish on time. Bonus is I can use the alarms at night and not worry about the hotel's faulty wake up call system!
