Works great with compact radios and stereos

I love the radio. He picks up stations very well. I've had one before and it took me a long time to find another. It runs on batteries but has a plug which I use a lot. hoped. Get a lot of static electricity in the weather area. I would buy again because of the radio.

Pros
  • 1 year trial
Cons
  • Something different

Great offer! for home audio

This radio is everything I was looking for and the price was amazing! I bought a refurbished model and it works great! I bought this for my bathroom so I can listen to the radio and weather in the morning as I get ready for work. I don't have many outlets, so I needed one that was battery operated (or mains powered, if I choose). This thing is perfect. It even has a weather alert button on the top so you can get local weather alerts. I would recommend this product to everyone!

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • nothing

Believe the worst that has been said about this radio.

Perpetual optimist, bought a converted model here, probably through Revain, very cheap. Since my expectations were very low, I thought everything would be ok. I just wanted to know the weather. The radio barely works, it feels like the buttons are broken. You know, touch the volume slider and it toggles between high and low volume. This is the form in which I normally dispose of the product. No weather can be heard, but it should be in this capital. You shouldn't come back. Just avoid it from…

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Empty

poor volume control on compact radios and stereos

This radio looks good but the volume control is different than any other radio I have had. Also, you can't increase the volume in increments, the slightest movement of the knob results in a deafening volume. The sound quality is okay for the price, and the weather radio button is a nice feature though. If you press the weather button without first turning on the radio, the weather radio will turn on at full volume and the volume slider will not control it. Make sure you turn on the radio before

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • Minor issues

WOW! WHAT A MAN!

Based on other reviews I thought this would be a risky purchase. But I foolishly hoped for the best and ended up wasting $20. I figured it should withstand minimal use, just sitting in my bathroom and letting me listen to a news station every morning and before bed while I floss and brush my teeth. And indeed everything was fine - about six months. Then the volume wheel failed. It barely worked and frustrated me for far too long. Then the on/off button fell off. And all this after minimal use…

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
