Whether it's your kitchen, dorm room, or bedroom that's lacking in space, the JWin JL-K733 clock radio is here to help. The discreet unit comes with a built-in bracket and screw for mounting underneath a cabinet, table, desk, counter, or other out-of-the-way location. The space-saving design makes this unit a valuable choice for kitchens with little room on the countertop, or for dorm rooms that are already ridiculously overstuffed. Even better, the slim chassis still offers most of the essential clock radio functions, along with a few extras.

The device is built around an AM/FM tuner and a front-loading CD player, both of which can coordinate with the alarm. The CD player isn't just a one-trick pony, however, as it's also compatible with CD-R and CD-RW formats and lets listeners program up to 20 tracks for a custom soundtrack. For occasions when pre-recorded CDs just don't cut it, listeners can turn to the AM/FM radio, which plays their favorite commercial and public radio programs, along with talk radio and sports broadcasts. The alarm, meanwhile, offers such functions as a sleep timer, a snooze button, and dual alarms for households with more than one sleeper.

Other features include an LED display, an FM stereo indicator, and a memory backup function that preserves the clock and alarm settings during a power outage (requires 9-volt battery). The JL-K733, which includes everything you need for under-cabinet mounting, measures 14.13 by 3.13 by 9 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
