Better AM reception than older models

I use this to listen to AM radio when I go to bed and support my significant other. The AM reception is better than the old Sangean radio I had (which is now in the car for emergencies). The plastic is shiny and not very high quality, but I'm not worried about durability. I've always loved the 90 minute sleep timer that small Sangean radios have and it's perfect for what I use it for. When I bought this my biggest concern was the volume control if adjusted in small enough increments. I was glad

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Excellent portable AM/FM radio - headphone design could be improved

Well made AM/FM pocket radio with great reception and sound! Tuning is secure and the 'lock' button prevents accidental changes to station settings, volume etc. A HUGE improvement over the radio in the tiny S*** AM/FM/MP3 unit it replaced - although that Sangean DT-120 it is unable to store or play MP3s and much larger ones; the same length as a deck of playing cards - see photo. The included ear tips work well, but the round shape doesn't fit my ears well and feels like they might fall outโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Out of style

Sangean DT-180 AM/FM pocket radio.

Great pocket radio. All stations I can receive are loud and clear; and I can get a lot. I love everything to do with radio. I recommend it. This review is an update. I originally gave this radio 5 stars. But now, less than 3 months after receipt, the batteries I installed are dying within a day. I've tried 3 times with new batteries but they always die on the same day. Now I take out the batteries if I don't use it for a while. My radio still turns off automatically every hour or so when I'mโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Functionality

Excellent pocket radio!

After losing an old Sony pocket radio ("Sony SRF-M37W Walkman Digital Tuning Weather/FM/AM Stereo Radio") I bought for around $20 many years ago I found it at Revain but have already used it. , priced at $66. Ransacked millions of pocket radios and settled on Sangean. It's about half the size of the old Sony and has excellent all-round qualities. 15 presets (2 FM, 1 AM), good reception, easy to set up and use. A nice feature is the 90-minute auto-off function, which prevents the battery fromโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Secret

Sangean Super 4.5: Personal Radios

SO AWESOME to have station preset buttons and on top! I have 3 sizes of Sangean portable radios, 5 in total. They are all size 4.5 for different reasons. Minus 0.5 for this one just because it shuts off after 90 minutes and listening to NPR all day it's annoying at times if I miss something and at times it's a mindfulness bell to catch your breath and watch/yourself move! Maybe another .1 button for volume, which is too much even for music; no treble for any bass, although I use good headphones

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Some difficulties
