Best Buy 2020! Highly recommended for camping and cabins

I really like this little radio. Bought it for our hiking adventure and have even been using it at home ever since. The MP3 capabilities are great, just load your MP3 files onto your SD card and away you go. You travel without being connected to your smartphone. Much better than a bluetooth speaker for camp life imho. Battery life is impeccable, I've been listening to FM all day while working from home in lockdown and it hasn't died once.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Slightly dented

PRUNUS Replacement for radios

I initially gave this radio 3* and complained extensively, especially the reception quality. I intended to return it. But one day a new one showed up at my door with an apology from PRUNUS. They felt the original was probably defective. You were right. The new one works like a charm and I thank PRUNUS for their efforts in solving the problem. Now I highly recommend this product. In addition to using the AM/FM radio, I bought a mini SD card with a regular SD card adapter. We copied my CDs to the

Love this little radio

I bought it on purpose because it runs on 18650 batteries which I have a lot of. With all our technology, we play with this little guy in the kitchen every morning. Why? Because it's reliable and hassle-free, like all of our new veiled phones. All you have to do is "click" on the watch face and it will work. It's more than we wanted as it comes with an MP3 player, a micro SD card slot, a headphone jack and even a 5V DC port. I don't know what it does; can the phone charge? I do not know…

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Hard to say

Great customer service but not much radio

**UPDATE MY REVIEW BELOW** Radio burned out on charging after only a few months of use. Customer service was great so I rate the company highly. They responded immediately and refunded the money very quickly. **ORIGINAL REVIEW BELOW** I needed a small radio for my kitchen as I didn't want to turn on the stereo while someone was trying to watch TV. Amazing reception for AM or FM. We live on a cliff and AM reception can be very iffy with portable radios. Not so with this one. The sound quality is

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Questionable senior purchase

I am very surprised by the quality of this little radio. The sound is great for a single speaker. It's not a stereo or anything, but I use it more than bringing my phone and bluetooth speaker out into the garden. Frequency discrimination is pretty good for manual dialing. I was very surprised about that. I listen to a few stations that are at the limit of my digitally tuned radio, and they come and go on mediocre days. This radio holds these frequencies well. SW doesn't work for me yet. Don't…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Nice little radio with MP3 Mico SD slot for kitchen

I was looking for a radio for my kitchen and I was looking for small radios. I originally came across the Prunus J-05 model, but it takes 3 "C" batteries and I wanted something that wasn't as big or heavy. I saw the Prunus J-01 radio and liked the small size and MP3 slot. for micro SD card. I bought it on March 1st, 2020 for $16.99 and tried it. I occasionally carry it from room to room while listening to NPR so I don't miss a single show. It uses a rechargeable lithium-ion battery (18650) that
