This is a good looking clock, works perfectly, keeps great time. I only have a few nitpicky complaints. The clock is little small, it looks great up close but the hands could be larger and darker so you can tell time from across the room. The clock is also difficult to hang. In order to hang it you have to try to slide a nail or screw inside a keyhole through the back panel, it's very difficult. The pendulum falls out, you get fingerprints all over the inside of the glass, it's a problem. The packaging could have been better, there should have been instructions on how to put the pieces together. The box was kind of beat up when it arrived. The original Howard Miller box should have been shipped inside of a shipping box.
