This is a Now and Zen Alarm Clock from 2004. It stands about 8 1/2" tall. It shows very little wear. It still works fine. This is a slow awakening clock. When set, it will sound one ding about 8 minutes before the set time. It continues with one ding every minute for about 5 minutes. Then it sounds 7 dings every minute for 2 more minutes and finally 10 dings per minute for 28 minutes and then shuts off. It uses 4 "C" batteries, not included. Please note, the batteries go in this at a curved angle and must be touching end to end when installed. If not installed correctly, it will look like the clock is not working. Jiggle the batteries and you should be good. The clock and alarm still work great as long as the batteries are seated properly. The instructions can be found online. Happy Zen waking! PR
