The dimmer on the sharp LCD screen is awesome! We use it as a little nightlight for me and love being able to customize it. The AM/FM radio works ok. Not fantastic, but it works. The buttons on top are fairly intuitive. Enough so that I was able to figure them out without reading the whole manual like my husband does!

iHome iH9 Alarm Clock Speaker System with Dock for iPod (Black)
Update October 2012:
We've moved this to my nightstand, where I keep our old iPod shuffle set to our "rain sounds" music. I keep it on repeat and love walking into our bedroom; it sounds so peaceful! Makes for a great white-noise maker for me. :)
Update December 2013:
We've now had this for 5 years and gotten a ton of use out of it. Unfortunately, it now has a fairly loud vibrating/humming noise every time we turn on the iPod. Very frustrating! The screen is still crystal clear so I use it as a clock/nightlight. A very large and bulky clock. Wish it would have lasted longer. Not sure if we'll buy another iHome product.
