Cherry Finish Wall Clock with Westminster Chime

Top of clock arrived broken. Will be sending it back.

I am hard of hearing, but communicate well with most people. I cannot hear the chimes, my wife can,. and this leaves me disseminated. I do not want to return the item, just wish it were louder.The appearance of the item and its obvious good workmanship are quite noticeable.

I bought this clock to replace a dated floor clock in my living room. I read the reviews which were so-so but I thought I would buy it anyway because I liked it and the price was right. It arrived with just the box wrapped in bubble wrap. When I opened it, the top "curl" was broken off, as was the case with a few other reviews. I was going to send it back but since it was a clean break, I glued it with some wood glue. The clock is now up on my living room wall and I have to say I do love it. It keeps accurate time and the chimes aren't too loud. I didn't have any trouble setting the chimes timer or the clock itself. I like that it doesn't chime at night. You can't even see where the broken piece was, it glued up perfectly. I do think it should've been shipped wrapped in bubble wrap and then put into another box for extra protection. The back of the clock could also fit in a little more snug, but it's ok once it's on the wall. I would recommend this clock, all in all, it is very pretty, despite the few minor flaws I mentioned. You get what you pay for, and the price certainly was budget friendly.

I originally gave this clock an excellent review, but its been a few weeks and I feel I need to make another review. It keeps great time, but now the chimes are off. I fixed them to the right time and it only lasted a few days and was off again. So if you are wanting to buy this for the chimes, I probably would not.
