The Bradford Exchange The Nightmare Before Christmas Cuckoo Clock, 21 inches, Musical, Light-Up, Limited Edition

I got The Nightmare Before Christmas cuckoo clock from The Bradford Exchange as a Christmas present for my wife, and it was a huge hit! But let me tell you—this is not just a seasonal decoration. This thing is on our wall all year long, and for good reason. It's so cool!The level of detail is incredible, from Jack Skellington to the spooky, whimsical touches throughout. The clock is well-built and runs perfectly, with fun animations and sounds that bring the movie’s magic to life every hour. It’s become a conversation piece whenever guests see it.If you’re a fan of The Nightmare Before Christmas or looking for a unique, high-quality gift, this clock is perfect. My wife and I both love it, and it’s now a permanent part of our home décor. Highly recommended!

Great "cuckoo" effects (lights, motion & music) that can be activated or turned off. Very cool!

Love this clock since I am a big Tim Burton fan. It's pretty pricy though. It came packed extremely well. Some reviews said that some pieces came broken, but I wonder if they inadvertently broke them while trying to unpack item. Everything is tightly surrounded by Styrofoam. So...be extremely careful when unpacking. My big complaint is that it is extremely difficult to install batteries in back because of the shape of clock. You can't put on counter face down or stand up because it is so fragile with all of those very cool but tiny pieces. You will need a second person to hold it. Other than that, I love it. Just wish it was a little bigger.

I got this clock gor my mom for her birthday, she has an amazing collection of Nightmare Before Christmas stuff and she's wanted this clock for years. Its absolutely beautiful and perfect as can be. I see a lot of people complaining that its fragile, and duh. If you've ordered anything from this company you know that all of the beautiful details are going to be kind of fragile. They are gorgeously made, and collectors items. Be gentle with anything that's a collectors item. This clock is amazing and we'll worth the price :D

First off, I am not complaining about Bradford Exchange's customer service. They have been good and understanding to me. They are just hard to get a hold of by phone and easier to deal with through Amazon, at least for me. This rating is based off the clock itself. The clock is cool if you are lucky enough to get it in one piece and with the hourly cuckoo function working. I struck out and had this clock exchanged FOUR times. The first two times the clock was sent to me with broken pieces. The next two times the hourly cuckoo function was just not working properly. I gave up on this product and did not ask for a fifth one. I do NOT recommend this clock.

It’s important to know what you are actually getting when you purchase this item and have realistic expectations. The truth is that yes, it is a somewhat “fine collectible” due to it being unique, however it also is mass produced and has some areas that lack the quality many would expect from the price or pedigree of the Bradford Exchange.The main body is quite nice. Good size, detail and colors on the figures as you see in their pictures. That quality doesn’t carry over into the hanging characters that are made of what seems to be plastic. The pendulum is a fragile, thin piece of tin that isn’t even as sturdy as a lid off of a can of corn. The clock mechanism is probably my biggest disappointment as it is the same as you would find on a cheap $5 clock at Walmart. The light/sound features do work but they run off separate batteries (AAAs) which drain rather quickly depending on which setting you choose.While all of that sounds like I am not satisfied with my purchase, to the contrary, I am. Mounted on the wall, the clock has the look of quality and uniqueness. It keeps time and is a nice addition to our NBC collection and ultimately, that is what we wanted.High quality, handmade cuckoo clocks can be extremely expensive. Hundreds or even thousands of dollars is not uncommon for the craftsmanship that goes into making them. What you are paying for with this item is the licensing and popularity of the brand. If you are ok with that, this item is worth it. If you’re expecting a handmade masterpiece, you should skip it.

I gifted this coo coo clock to my 16 year old son and he loved it. The detail craftmanship on the clock is just amazing and I love that the clock came with the certificate of authenticity.

Thought it didn’t work at first. I was wrong. The pack of batteries I bought (new) had a faulty battery. Replaced batteries and am so pleased with this purchase. Quality is good. Please follow the instructions, this piece must be put up properly.
