 Plesent radio August 10, 2008
Bought this radio back in April and placed it in the kitchen. We run it for hours at a time and it sounds just fine we like it. Remote is nice to have also. I cranked up the volume to see if will distort the sound and it did not. Some people would like to see bass and treble controls it would be nice but this unit is not competeing with high end stereo units as I said it sounds good. As for the light in the display at night it is somewhat bright. In the kitchen we do not notice it or we grown use to it. I gave 4 stars because it could use a few more station presets. Buy it when it is on sell and I think it is a good deal.
 I just returned mine. August 8, 2008

The AM reception was awful.
I was replacing an old Sony Dream Machine, but the old Sony handled AM much better.
So I must give it one star.
Also, the backlight was glaringly bright.
 fashion over function August 4, 2008
i couldn't sleep with this thing in my room...display was too bright and could not be adjusted...also, why would they not put bass/treble buttons on this radio...and its way too bass heavy (and i love bass!)...i often listen to talk radio in the morning...couldn't understand what was being said through this radio...just a low rumble that resembled a voice
it is definitely a nice looking radio; unfortunately the plastic housing and buttons feel really cheap
i ended up returning this for the boston acoustics horizon solo...this radio is exactly what i had hoped the eaton would be...i highly recommend!
Decent reception and good price when on sale July 17, 2008
I won't bore you with the details, there are plenty other reviews you can read for that. What this radio offers is solid sound and decent reception. I use it at work so none of the clock or alarm features are of interest to me. At the current price it is probably a 2 star radio, however, if you find it on sale ~50-60, then it is a pretty decent deal.
Overally I'm pleased May 29, 2008
I purchased this item on a whim as I needed a radio in the bathroom. The sound quality is great if you love a lot of bass. Sometimes with the exhaust fan on (or other noise in the room)the bass is all you hear so keep that in mind.
The good:
In a quiet room the sound quality is great.
The remote is simple & functions very well.
Setting the alarm & time is an easy process.
The bad:
Turn off the sun! The stupid digital display is so bright it makes roosters crow.
The bass is too pronounced for my taste & there is no way to reduce the effect.
Overall -- for $30 delivered I'm pleased but not ecstatic.
