 Great Clock Radio March 5, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have had this radio for over a month. This is a great clock radio with lots of useful features. Good radio reception if you stretch out the power cord like the suggest in the owners manual. The small CD player control buttons on the front are a bit cumbersome to use because you need to hold on to the radio to keep it from moving away from you as you press them. The sound on the weather band is very weak and has to be turned up to be heard. Then if you forget to turn it back down the CD or FM radio sound is too loud. I would definitely recommend to a friend.
 Doesn't Work February 11, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This clock radio has been a huge disappointment. I have appreciated the battery backup and the large display,but the CD player stopped working after only a few months. It's also very frustrating that the button to open the CD player is in the place that most people would expect to find the snooze button. All in all, a very disappointing purchase.
 Big Price for Little Radio... February 9, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have to agree with most of the other reviews, this product simply just falls flat. For the price, one would expect more... oh so much more! No ear phone/head phone jack... has trouble reading disks... the CD doors jams about every five times I use it... horrible instructions and I have learned through the years, if the manufacturer only warranties the product for 90 days (as with this clock radio), they obviously don't have much faith in their very own product either. I would never purchase another one of these clock radios. It is simply overpriced for what it delivers.
 a good product January 27, 2008

Have been using this product for a few months.
The Pros:
- Very well designed. The size isn't big and it's very good looking sitting on my bedside table (I got compliments from people visiting my house).
- Can wake up to any track in a CD. A very important feature. Why would anyone want to always listen to the same track?
- Set up is quick and easy. Just follow the three easy start up steps and you are all set.
- Large numbers on the screen. Even with my poor eye sight I can still see it without my glasses.
- Has all the alarm clock features you'd expect from this price range.
Cons:
- Screen is a bit bright at night even after dimming it down. I need to turn it away from my face to sleep. A big minus.
- It's VERY, VERY sensitive to static. My hands are static prone. There are a few times when, upon first contact with the clock, the static completely shut down the clock or screwed up the screen. I had to unplug it from power and plug it back again. Good news is that it did't change the clock settings. So I can live with that so far.
Overall, it's a good value. If you can live with these two cons then get it.
Broken CD loading mechanism January 25, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
We received this unit as a present for our new born. It has now been three months and the CD panel that folds out so you can load your CD's has broken several times. I have been able to get it back working after some time playing with it but it is now broken for good. I would not buy this unit simply based on the factor of too many moving parts to load a CD. Otherwise everything seems to work fine but not being able to play my sons CD's for him is very annoying.
