I purchased the Manor alarm clock because I liked the way it looked and it was a good size for my bedside nightstand. When it arrived, it looked as I had expected, but I was unhappily surprised by how flimsy the clock case is. This is quite disappointing because I have always considered Bulova products to be of substantial quality. Hopefully the clockworks will be good and it doesn’t ever get knocked onto the floor when I’m reaching for it in the dark. I’m afraid it won’t survive a fall.
