 Best Shower Radio I've Ever Had November 3, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The reception is great. It can pick up distant FM stations from 90 miles away that other radios in the house can't receive. The sound quality is decent, though it may lack adequate bass response for some groove-dependent listeners. Classical music and talk sound just fine, but if you like to get down to Parliament/Funkadelic as you're lathering in the morning, you may be underwhelmed. The batteries are rated for extended usage, and after a month of daily use, they're still going strong. I haven't found a need for the flashlight yet, though I'm sure this will come in handy during the next power outage.
 Broke easily November 3, 2008

I've had this over a year, but it is already broken. I went to flip open the battery door on the back and the hinge piece broke. The battery door can no longer close, which no longer makes it ideal for the shower, and it would also be awkward to hang this thing on my shower curtain rod with the back open. The hinge piece is too small to glue back on. When I moved into my sister's basement to help her out, I also struggled to get my radio stations to come through.

So far radio works great. It was a replacement for a Brookstone's radio that I had trouble with because of the volume knob. No knobs on my new radio and all is great!
Perfect for the hot tub October 15, 2008
I bought the Sangean so I would be able to listen to the radio while we're in our spa on our patio. It's perfect for that. I don't have to worry about it getting splashed or even whether it gets knocked in (but I'll try to avoid that test). The sound is superb, and I find myself using it to listen to NPR in the morning instead of turning on the stereo or another radio. It's handy, flexible and very sturdy. It's pricey, but I haven't seen anything that compares to it for less.

Although I had never heard of Sangean products I decided to take a chance mostly because of Amazon's reputation for handling good products. It was purchased for my wife to use outdoors while gardening. The merchandise arrived expiditiously and in good shape. It is a well constructed piece of merchandise and the sound is excellent. Most importantly my wife likes it. What more can i say?
