    What are the laws in the US regarding this? In Germany, this clock is clearly defective and must be repaired or replaced or refunded by the vendor at no additional charge.

      You could definitely get it repaired/replaced by the manufacturer

      But, would you? You can probably return it to where you bought it, but that’s at least 10 mins of your life.

      You could also throw it in the trash… That takes 0 minutes. That’s what they hope you’ll do, and so every other option is made possible, but frustrating

          How? I recycle e-waste personally, because I find disassembling it relaxing.

          What is a normal person meant to do? I’ve been asked and I don’t know what to tell them

      In most places you can return it back for any reason and without one, if you still have a receipt.
