The sound quality is only average ( with noticeable distortion at higher volumes ) but for the money it makes for good casual listening in the kitchen or living room. Awkward design (12 March 2010)I bought mine about 2 years ago because I liked the look of the thing but there is a bad design fault. The CD lid is situated under the fixed carrying handle and getting it open and loaded is consequently difficult. The programing from the handset is complicated and the programming of CD plays is limited as you have to go through all the tracks manually pressing the button to get to the one you want. You can't programme in a number as all other CD players I have ever had allowed. It's ok but definitely no the best thing out there. It seems I'm not alone... (08 December 2009)At first, this DAB radio worked like a dream (good reception, nice sound, looked great). In its favour, the CD player had always worked but the radio would cut out after 10 minutes or so. Using the tried and trusted "switch it off, switch it on again" method sorted the problem for a while. Now, the display lights up but there is no radio (digital or fm) and no cd. We've had it for less than 3 years and it wasn't particularly cheap so, overall, not impressive. very disappointing (16 May 2007)I had to return mine, as it didn't work at all using batteries and even using mains it was unreliable - sometimes cutting off for no reason. I bought another (from a different supplier) and the same thing happened, so this one had to be returned too. No way would I recommend this to anyone. Liked it but the CD player breaks (18 April 2007)I bought one of these after being impressed by one owned by a friend. It seemed ideal, the sound is fine for me and I really like the digital radio and the display. Can't see the point in FM but I suppose some might want it. The whole reason for going for this model for me though was for the integrated CD player - great I can listen to radio or CD in the kitchen! Trouble is that the beast no longer plays CDs, the player totally went after just two months. Chatting to the friend whose player I first coveted, it emerges that their CD player no longer works either. That's two out of two on the crap CD player front so disappointing. Like the radio though. |
