Kookoo clock
Nice clock, arrived quickly. Instructions were very frustrating as no clue given as to how to attach pendulum. So much paperwork and hardly any instructions.

Kookoo clock
Quirky and fun. Give us the choice of a yellow bird, though.

KooKoo clock
We have really fallen in love with this cuckoo clock, his delightful song, which always sparks in me a little chuckle every time he sings. Definitely a wonderful feature in my living room and a conversation ensues when visitors here him and see it. Who wouldn't be charmed by this time peace?

Stylish take on a classic!
I bought the white cuckoo clock for my 1 year old son's bedroom. It is a stylish take on a classic cuckoo clock with accessories in different colours to match any decor. The clock looks great in my son's room and he loves it! It is definitely a keeper. And the sales support provided by Kurt was excellent. Thank you!

Stylish and Sweet sounding
We love this clock so much in our house. The look of the clock is gorgeous, it sounds terrific,it doesn't make a sound through the night as it has a great light sensor and best of all it runs off batteries and doesn't need any weighted mechanisms. Thanks Kurt - you and your products are awesome
