Bought my 88yr old Mum one and she absolutely loves it. She knows to just look at the clock if she gets muddled up on days or dates. Helps with confidence. One of her neighbours saw it and asked her if I could get her one also for her hubby. Great service and fast delivery.

Love this BIG TIME

What a great product. I'm so happy with my new Clock. The whole process of purchasing and delivery was seamless. I'm also very pleased that I could buy Australian too. One very happy customer here.

This clock is the best thing since sliced bread. I don't have to find the glasses in the middle of the night to read it, and so simple to set up. Might purchase a second one for the kitchen.

Sound familiar?

Mum rings to ask what day it is again, or the pill box is still full. You call to remind her, but the moment passes. The note on the fridge is from last month, and the calendar is still on last month.

It isn't you, and it isn't her. Ordinary clocks don't say the day. Paper can't speak up at 8am. And nobody can ring at every mealtime. The fix is a screen big enough to read from across the room, with a voice she can hear from the kitchen, telling her the day, the time of day, and what to do next.

That is the XL Reminder Clock. It's simple to set up. She doesn't have to touch it. She gets independence. And you get peace of mind.
