Impressive radio, great sound, easy to set up but not quite what I needed

My little brother was recently diagnosed with dementia which disrupts normal life in many ways. His wife's research showed that music could be beneficial for people like him. The question arose: what kind of device could we use so that my brother could choose what he wanted to hear. Echo/Alexa was there, but unfortunately it can't send the simple voice command that Alexa needs. My hope was to program this radio to stream the music he loved. A few hours of work with him showed that he wants and can do it very well. The problem was that it was so complex that I didn't think he could easily use it, so they brought it back. If I were looking for a streaming device, this would be it β€” via my iPhone, my computer, or my iPad. This radio seemed like the best option, but unfortunately it was too difficult for him to use. Build quality and functionality were excellent. The sound was also excellent. It connected easily to my Wi-Fi network and if it was for me it would be perfect. But it was too difficult for my brother. However, I wholeheartedly recommend it.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • I'll be silent
