This was just what I was looking for. It has good sound and reception, is easy to tune, and easy to charge. A brief experiment on battery life - on a full charge I had it on for 30 hours and it was still going strong. Others have spoke about the lack of an indicator for when the battery is fully charged and I would agree that would be a nice to have feature. As it is, the unit has a small red light to indicate charging is happening but does not go off or change color to let you know. Although if you had one of those small power meters hooked up between your charging source and the unit, you could tell when it was full, but almost all of the small battery-powered devices have that function as part of the unit and I don't see why this radio does not have that. Oh well, one small nit-pick for an otherwise solid functioning and looking portable radio. I love mine! Read more
This is a neat little unit. I use it as a Bluetooth receiver mainly. The sound quality is remarkable when paired with a turntable that has Bluetooth output. I'm running a medium tier record player and it sounds pretty darn good. A few putzy criticisms: I wish it just had a traditional power cord vs battery. It doesn't have an obvious signal that it is fully charged, the manual just says don't charge it for longer than a day. Finally, the USB port that most of us would use as a phone charger doesn't seem to work when the unit itself is charging. All that said I think it's stylish and works well for what it is. 🙂 An A- for a grade. Read more
This is sooooo cute and amazing!! My boss saw it and ordered herself one then…my hubby saw it. He pilfered it and now it’s on his desk in his office!!! I think it’s time to order me another one!!! Clear sound, good volume (I got told it was too loud one day!!), and sooo cute!! Did I say it was cute?? Because it really is!!! Read more
Very cool. It looks awesome. Just like an old radio. The speaker is great too. Works very very well. Can't go wrong for the money. There are a couple things that I'm nitpicking over but they don't effect the overall outcome of the radio. The materials used could be better, but for the price they're just fine. Also it'd be nice to have easier volume adjustment for Bluetooth from your phone, but it's not a big deal. Overall I highly recommend this. Read more
Bought this for my brother who has a very specific aesthetic. Not only does this dohickey (which has functions that predate the both of us) function splendidly with its radio, Bluetooth, MP3 player abilities, it does so while keeping solid sound quality for all of the above! And it can get decently loud for a device roughly the size of a tissue box. For privacy reasons I won't post the pictures of this guy in it's home besides my brother's grandfather clock and singing fish, but! I can say with certainty that it 100% fits my brother's picky and specific and unusual aesthetic goals. 10/10, very very very happy with this purchase!!! Read more
Great little radio to enjoy listening to outside on our deck. For such a small radio, the sound quality isn't all that bad. It doesn't sound "tinny" like I was afraid it would sound. Now for the description of "Rich Bass Stereo," that's a bit of a stretch. However, it has clear crisp sound. We don't need nor want a high wattage mega bass system on our deck to annoy the neighbors, so this radio is perfect for our needs. The Bluetooth connected to my cellphone easily. Perfect size for a tabletop and doesn't take up any real space. Very pleased with this purchase. Highly recommend this radio if you don't need thundering bass that blows a roof off. Good value.

Good sounds quality. Decent radio for a fair price. Read more
I like the radio. I've only had it for a day and am happy with sound quality and looks. However, the pointer on the tuner scale is very difficult to see. I had to get a flash light in order to see where it was located. Traditionally, there is a light which illuminates the tuner scale in most radios. It would be sensible to put one in future models.
