I wanted to use this clock in my kitchen.  After I got the clock to set following the directions and placed it in my kitchen, it kept trying to set itself and the hands kept going around and around.  I put the clock in the garage and it is displaying the correct time but the second hand is stuck and does not move.  I would have returned the clock but the hassle isn't worth it based upon the cost of the item.  I'd never buy this type of clock again.
