It was a pretty good deal before holidays to get 2 clocks for the price of one. They were gifts to the friends' kids. We own Darth Vader clock ourselves and after getting applauses over it we decided to get them as gifts. I don't have any complains about the item. It's very star wars looking, fits everywhere and works perfectly, every day. We always joke with my son that if he won't wake up at the right time for school Darth Vader is going to do it.
I really like the clock, it's loud enough to wake up a person, the time is pretty visible, but if you want to buy the clock only for the alarm reason get a regular one becauze this one is a toy addition to your kid's room and a clock,Yes,  I do recommend it.
