 couldn't be happier January 8, 2009
Janice Pysson
Every bit as good as the reviews said it was. Works great,just the right size and I like the timer so it isn't left on too long and runs down the batteries. Clock is easy to read and buttons are large enough that you don't have to fumble with them.

 Not bad December 28, 2008
S. Crawford (Portland, OR USA)
My last shower radio was a much cheaper analog radio, and I bought this one primarily for the digital tuning and presets. The interface panel is incredibly easy and intuitive - I did not even need to look at the instructions. I love the functional design of this radio - from button layout to the easy to grip volume knob.
I'm penalizing this one star because the sound quality is merely okay. My previous cheap analog radio actually sounded a little better. I guess I just expected better sound quality for the price paid.
Good Unit December 26, 2008
Roger G. Martin Jr.
Just received this unit for about ten dollars cheaper than Amazon's updated listed price. I had bought mine through one of Amazon's sellers (that was all that was available). It was a new unit. Amazon has apparently just re-stocked them and now they are available directly from Amazon for the time being. Anyway, this unit is very good in my opinion. I had bought a cheap unit made by Conair at a local store which turned out to be junk. It seems that there aren't that many good shower radios to choose from. But I am very satisfied with this one so far. The reception is great, the volume is strong and it feels like a sturdy unit. The only issue I have noticed right from the beginning is the clock/station display has a couple of faded or blank spots thus not showing the station or time completely. Regardless, it was not something bothersome enough for me to want to return it. It's good enough for me to find the station I listen to in the morning. I recommend this shower radio to anyone. The one missing star in my rating is only because of the clock/station display.

Great little radio. Great sound. Have had several other radios for use in my bathroom but this one takes the cake!
