Customer Reviews

I researched iPod Docking Stations/Alarm Clocks for a couple of days. I narrowed it down between the iHome and this Ottavo brand. Both were roughly in the same price range $30-$50. The criteria/features that I was looking for were
1.) iPod Touch Docking/Charging Station compatible with the iPhone is a plug
2.) Dual alarm clock allows you to wake to either radio, iPod or beeping
3.) Speakers to play iPod or radio
4.) AUX input so that I can connect with my computer even better
5.) Ease of Use.
Here is what I found when I opened the box:
1.) When I received the Ottavo OT1010, the box stated that it was only compatible with iPod. iPod Touch. I contacted Ottavo before taking it out of the box to find out if the listing was incorrect and to find out it if would harm my iPhone 4. It took a little while, but they did contact me back and said that it would not harm the iPhone 4. All in all, not only my iTouch buy my iPhone DOES work on this Ottavo. The connector is very snug, but it works beautifully and it charges my iTouch/iPhone very well.
2.) This docking station has 2 alarm clock settings. You can set them for separate times and you can turn them both on or one or the other. The alarm clock feature works very well and will wake you to either your iPod, FM clock radio and beeps that start off quietly as to not jolt you out of bed and then increases in loudness until a certain volumn which feels comforatble to me. This is a very nice feature.
3.) The speakers surprisingly sound very good for an alarm clock. I wouldn't use it if I was throwing a party but it is very clear and has a good range in volume. The radio is digital, easy to tune, clear and has 20 presets
4.) The unit is a nice size, has a nice clean look to it and seems sturdy and nicely built. The unit also comes in other colors as well. The display, however, is bright buy can be adjusted. The lowest setting is more than sufficient. If you like your room to be completely dark than you would want to turn the display off at night.
5.) The docking station has quick start instructions and I found it easy to set up. I can set mostly without seeing the manual
Overall, I give the Ottavo iPod Docking station/Alarm Clock 5 out of 5 stars for the reasons stated above. iHome is a famous brand name but I would recommend this item to a friend next time, and I would recommend Ottavo docking stations.

Overall this alarm does what it needs to and it's worth its price.
I use this as an alarm and charge my 4th generation iPod touch, iPod 4 and sometimes my iPhone 3G.
Pros:
-Dim/Bright LCD backlight
-Very clear LCD panel
-Two alarms
-Fully remote
-Small for crowded nightstand
-Loudness
-Can take 2 AA batteries for time back up
-Design is good
-Three iPod adapters that come with every other iPod dock I've owned for a better fit.
-Bass and Treble adjust
Definatly will recommend this product to my family and friends.
