Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
It is well settled that a hearing court's determination is to be accorded great deference on appeal and will not be disturbed unless it is clearly unsupported by the record (see, People v Diaz, 170 A.D.2d 618; People v. Cartier, 149 A.D.2d 524, cert denied ___ US ___ 110 S Ct 1927). The evidence adduced at the suppression hearing fully supports the hearing court's determination that the defendant voluntarily consented to the police officers' entry into his apartment and their recovery of a meat hook and nightstick (see, People v. Gonzalez, 39 N.Y.2d 122; People v. Estrella, 160 A.D.2d 250; People v. Thomas, 144 A.D.2d 506; People v. Credidio, 141 A.D.2d 661; People v. Buggs, 140 A.D.2d 617; People v. Zimmerman, 101 A.D.2d 294).
Moreover, in view of the defendant's criminal record, his lack of remorse and the violent nature of the crime and its effect on the victim, it cannot be said that the sentence imposed was harsh or excessive (see, People v. Dukes, 156 A.D.2d 708; People v Shaw, 124 A.D.2d 686; People v. Marrero, 110 A.D.2d 785; People v Suitte, 90 A.D.2d 80). Lawrence, J.P., Eiber, Balletta and Ritter, JJ., concur.
