Good radio for the bathroom.

This is a cute little radio for listening to the news in the bathroom. I'm still working on the batteries I put in a few months ago (alkaline). We don't have enough outlets for everything we want to plug in, so this is a great alternative. There was a hum at first but it went away and worked fine. We don't have it in our hearts.

Pros
  • Top marks for hold and durability from testers
Cons
  • Neutral

Works well as radio and bluetooth for webcasting

I use it every day in the shower and it suits my needs well. It receives my local NPR radio station as I need it and also receives webcasts from NPR stations via Bluetooth from my iPhone. I'm not an iPhone or Bluetooth expert, but I've had no problem receiving Bluetooth broadcasts from my iPhone. Works perfectly!

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • Little things

So disappointed with compact radios and stereos

I really liked this radio and was very happy until the first time I had to change the batteries. After installing new batteries, the radio would not turn on at all. I checked the batteries and followed the instructions. Nothing. Finally I pressed the reset button and the display lit up and all the numbers on the clock started racing and became unstoppable. Then 3 blue flashes of light. Then death. I contacted Revane who referred me to the seller. The seller sent me back to Revain. Revain then…

Good shower radio: Compact radios and stereo systems

3 months showering about an hour a day with original batteries (consumes 4AA). Looks strong enough. The sound quality does not affect hearing the voice. No tuner drift issues, but tuning in to multiple presets and listening to multiple stations is harder than it should be - this radio is best for listening to daily news on the same channel. train station every day. Bluetooth pairing works fine, re-pairing is automatic on startup, but if you want to listen to music consider buying a Bluetooth…

This radio sounds great - about 50 seconds.

We bought this Jensen radio for our new bathroom. It looks great and when you turn it on it sounds great - within 50 seconds. Then you only hear "fuzzy hum". At first I thought it happened to me in the morning while taking a shower. I put it on every surface in the bathroom and it made no difference. Thinking it was just some sort of glitch on my part, I didn't mention it until I heard it does the same thing when my husband uses it. I tried it in different rooms of the house and the same thing…

Disappointing Best in Home Audio

A shower radio I bought 20 years ago just died and the same one we no longer sell. So I ordered this Jensen bluetooth radio. I'm really very disappointed with that. The main problem is that once it gets a little wet the sound gets weaker so much that it's very hard to hear! I listen to audio books in the shower and this loudness error makes a big difference to audio books. Also, setting up the radio is ridiculously complicated. With the instructions in front of me, I made many, many attempts to

Pros
  • Built tough
Cons
  • No automatic

Great sound for the price though.

I bought this device to replace my analog shower radio and overall I am very happy with my purchase. The radio is of good build quality and works well, with good reception and great sound (for the price). I just have a few suggestions/nitpicks. First you need to use a screwdriver to change the batteries. Truth? It seems that the screw heads will eventually come loose if you are not very careful. Why didn't the manufacturer use thumbscrews or some other mechanism? If a manufacturer reads this…

  • New to my collection
