Good Reception- Sounds fine

works good - we had trouble getting reception with another cheeper model brand. We'd rather pay a little more for this one and have it work. Getting another one for the mother-in-law who lives down the road.

Perfect for what I needed it for

Only thing I would change would be, that the clock digits be a little bit darker so you could see them from farther away and at different angles...not just right in front of it.

Simple to operate and best sound

Great product. Very simple to install and operate. Has a great sound, especially as compared to other kitchen radios we tried. It\'s very sturdy and takes up a minimum of under cabinet space. This is our second radio - the first we left when we sold...

Easy To Set Up

Good product for the money.

Very easy to mount and setup. Purchased on sale at best buy. I am able to get all my local radio fm stations but have not tried am. Sound quality is about what I expected for the money, decent but not spectacular. Overall very good product.

Easy to use and mount

Sound quality is not the greatest

Love it!

Very easy to install. We put an outlet in the cabinet so the cord would not show. Sounds great. Very easy to operate?
