I've owned this clock for almost a year, and consider it one of the better buys I've made in clocks. So far, it has "self-adjusted" for every daylight savings time change with no problems. The key, I think, is to make sure that it is set to adjust automatically, and that the time zone is set correctly.

This is a very well made clock. It is easy to see from far away, shows correct time within minutes of setup, no more climbing up to set the Daylight Savings Time or remembering how many minutes the clock is off. A quick test showed that clock's time about 2 seconds different from my Verizon cell phone.
Good product.
