The clock looks real good and it keeps time very accurately. You can't expect much more from a clock. For the price (including tax [...]), it's hard to go wrong. Even from a short distance, it looks like real wood (it's not). Perfect for use in a game room, den, tv room ... some less formal room. Finally, it's very light weight so if it ever were to fall from the wall, it likely wouldn't break anything beneath it. I'm very satisfied with this purchase.
