Review on Lauson Woodsound CP548 Pink Portable Boombox: FM Stereo Radio, CD-R/CD-RW/MP3/WMA Playback, USB Port, AUX Input, Headphone Jack, LCD Display - Kids' Music Player by Matthew Aiono

FM reception is so weak it is unusable as a radio

The reception was incredibly poor - I have an acceptable signal on a small 4" x 7" handheld weather radio and much better signals on all the other boomboxes in the area A house. This thing is useless as an FM radio, except maybe for a very strong signal or two. On my particular machine, the power cord didn't fit properly into the socket on the back of the machine and the power kept cutting out. I don't know if it's just an issue with that, but it looks like it's a design issue with the base not being deep enough. Low price (I bought it for a dirty paint shop so I didn't have to worry about having to paint it) but no matter how cheap it's overpriced if it doesn't work.

Cons
  • Long delivery time
