Summary: Love my new radio
Comment: I received my new portable radio and started using it immediately. It's sound is wonderful and I love the convenient clip that let's me use it while I'm walking. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a radio that just plays music from the radio.

Summary: Easy to use basic radio
Comment: The battery life is very good and it does what you would expect from a basic radio. As you would expect for the low cost the headphones are only OK but you can get whatever you like since any standard ear bud, headphone, or earphone will work fine. The friend I gave this to was able to go to sleep while listening to the radio without worrying about using up the batteries.

Summary: AM "memory"
Comment: This little radio, even with the chintzy headphones, is worth the price. One thing about the beauties of analog tuning- if you leave and re-tune an AM station, you will increasingly get it better. Radios left on one station will gradually develop a memory and keep getting the signal stronger.
This applies to everything from ancient garage-sale bought GEs or RCA Super radios(both Thompsons)to Sangean ccradios, so you go from $5 to $200
Don't complain about mild annoyances, 10 $15 radios are worth experimenting with over one $150 model, which will turn into a disappointment. It takes a Sangean a year with its digital tuning to get the memory you have in a month with analog, and by then the digital read-out is dead!
Customer Rating:
Summary: My picky husband really likes this one.
Comment: My husband ordered this. I know he replaced the headphones to find a pair that was more comfortable, but he really likes the radio. He said the quality of the sound is excellent. The station signal stays constant with no fading in and out or static. He is well-satisfied with his purchase.
Customer Rating:
Summary: difficult dialing
Comment: Unlike most of the reviews which were positive which caused me to purchasse the radio I completely disliked the product. it is nearly impossible to dial and pick up most stations. Since the dial is so small you need pinpoint accuracy. Yes, the quality of sound is very good, but I am throwing out this unit, and buying something else !!!
