nice travel alarm clock . it be a plastic case , not super small , but small enough , simple to use . do not always wake up my super-sound sleeping daughter , since it automatically shut off after a minute -lrb- or 30 seconds ? -rrb- . it have two alarm level , the alarm be a higher frequency that hard of hear people may not hear , but would generally wake up anyone that want to get up . I also use it as a back up alarm for when I have to catch a flight , and I do not have to worry about not hear it , even when I put it 10 foot away from my bed ...
