Product Description |
| Ever since the introduction of the first and only 7-day alarm clock in December 2004, American Innovative has been logging feature requests and product improvement suggestions from our customers. Nearly every aspect of the neverlate executive is fully customizable. We've introduced the concept of alarm banks - three in all. The two 7-day banks provide two, completely independent seven-day wake schedules - his and hers for example. In addition, we've included a daily reminder bank. We are also pleased to introduce the first-ever preferences menu in a clock radio. Everything from the backlight brightness, to the alarm duration is fully adjustable. Wake to NPR news at 7:00am weekdays, your Saturday morning talk show on a different station and the buzzer on Sunday. There's no other clock radio in the world with this capability. Line-in, headphone jack and more - a powered USB port on the back accommodates an electric fan or laptop boom lamp. Each time you hit the snooze button the snooze time is cut in half until finally the neverlate executive won't let you snooze any more. You can even disable the tempting snooze button. |

 AWESOME ALARM CLOCK!! |
| Review Date: September 13, 2008 |
| Reviewer: Maggie, Florida |
I never, ever thought I would pay 60 bucks for an alarm clock but I got so sick of setting and resetting my alarm clock for several years. I am a school teacher who is split between two different schools that begin at two different times. I also take classes on Saturday mornings for my masters degree. So that is 3 different alarms needed each week, so each night I am rewinding or forwarding my alarm wake times for the following day or changing the setting from weekday to weekend. So I splurged and bought this 7 days alarm clock. I used this clock this week and it worked GREAT!!!!!!! I didn't have a single problem and I never touched my clock once. I personally love the different alarm choices offered. The manual describes several situations where this clock will help you:
"I am a single person and I get up at the same time each day."
"We're are two people and we each get up at the same time each day, but my spouse/partner gets up before I do."
"I'm just one person and I have a varied morning wake schedule."
"We are two people with two different morning wake schedules."
This alarm clock has a scenario for ever working person!
The preferences offered are also great! Here are the few that I appreciate!
1) You can set the snooze duration
2) You can pick the snooze type. ( You can pick a set time and each time you hit snooze it will go off for that amount of time, you could pick descending where each time you hit snooze the snooze duration is halved or you can turn the snooze off where the snooze button will not respond and the alarm sound will continue until you turn the alarm off.
3) Gradual Wake- Audible alarms start quietly and slowly raise in volume. (I personally LOVE this feature, as most alarms startle me out of my sleep.)
4) Glow - you can change the settings on the front of the clock- either low, medium, high or off.
There are also 20 preset radio stations offered and there are several different buzzer alarms so you have plenty of choices as far as what you want to wake up to. The display is fairly large so even people with vision problems should not have a problem reading this clock. Finally there is a napping feature. You can set a specific amount of time for your nap, when you want to lay down for a rest, just hit the nap button and the clock will wake you up after whatever amount of time you had programmed. How great is that???
This clock has ALOT of great features. Don't hesitate to purchase this clock, you will appreciate all it has to offer! |
A Clock With All The Features You Could Want

| This alarm clock is working out really well! I have had it for a little while now and am finding the bells and whistles to be really handy. I occasionally use the nap timer and therefore don't have to mess up my daily alarm settings, I use the skip timer when I wake up earlier than the alarm so as not to wake my significant other, I use the multiple settings to not just wake me up, but to remind me to do daily tasks, etc, etc. So all in all, I'm very pleased with it! |
Worthy successor to the original

I am a long-time owner of the original Neverlate 7-day alarm clock. It was a great idea in its day, and is still head-and-shoulders above (almost) any other alarm clock out there.
The only one that has the original Neverlate beat is its fancier cousin, this new Neverlate Executive.
Everything you ever wished your alarm clock could do...this does it!
Change the way the snooze works in the morning? Check.
Automatically rotate through different wake-up stations each morning? Check.
Charge your USB-powered devices overnight? Check.
See your alarms as a calendar? Check.
It's as though somebody opened up the back of a standard digital alarm clock and made everything customizable.
I'm still tweaking the settings on mine, but the fact that I don't have to unplug my lamp to charge my blackberry, and that I can listen to the baseball game late at night and still wake up to NPR the next morning (and not the awful talk radio on the morning sports station) are already worth the upgrade. |
Fantastic alarm clock

I have been using the Neverlate Executive for about a year now. Hands down it is the best alarm clock I have ever owned.
Best features:
- Easy to use controls. Buttons and knobs are simple and intuitive. I lost the instructions long ago but can still figure out how to customize all of the settings pretty directly.
- Big, easy to read display. Nice upgrade over the orginal Neverlate
- Option to wake to any radio station or buzzer.
- Digital tuner with presets... the simplicity of finding the station I want means I actually use the clock as a radio in my bedroom
- Nap timer is easy to set and useful.
- Customizable snooze duration. I have always found standard alarm clock snoozes too long.
- Multiple alarm banks and individual daily alarms are nice to have but I don't use them all the time. Good to have the option, though.
Potential drawbacks
- Some other reviews mention freezing or technical glitches but I have not experienced any. My clock works well.
- Softest radio volume level could be a little softer - but that is a nit.
The nicest thing about this clock is it can be as simple or complicated as you want it to be. It does all of the basics extremely well and lets you customize as little or as much as you want. I would buy this clock again... and have given it as gifts to some friends and a couple nephews in college.

Great clock for adults and students alike

| Reviewer: P. Maxfield, Portland, OR, USA |
I've been using the Neverlate Executive for nearly a year, and have been very happy with all of its features. My wife and I often have different schedules, so it has helped each of us maintain our own sleep patterns when the needs arise.
The alarm is pleasant but effective, and the display is easy to read from across the bed or room.
I'd highly recommend this product for a working adult or a student who has a mixed schedule. |
