I'm glad I got this radio with a gift card. I would not be too happy if the money came out of my pocket. First of all, the radio is FM only. I love FM, but I also love AM for sports radio and ball games. — Secondly, there is no tuning dial! The user is at the mercy of the scan button... which doesn't pick up many stations. I was usually left to listen to stations I hate. — Finally, it doesn't stick to the shower door (or wall) well at all. — I can't recommend this radio.… read full review »

The Eton FR 405 Weather Alert Radio has batteries, a crank handle dynamo, a power connection and a cel phone charger. This means you can never run out of ways to listen to your favourite tsunami information. It has a siren, a flashlight that flashes red or continous white light, and a big red American Red Cross button presumably for emergency broadcasts. — The weather function dial has seven presets that allow you to hear continous reports for your region. Its covered in a bouncy white rubber and feels solid and durable. The sound quality is as good as any other small radio. Its in my… read full review »

Durabrand - Durabrand Clock Radio CR502

Durabrand - Durabrand Clock Radio CR502

2008
The Durabrand CR-502 Clock Radio is a very simple and very inexpensive clock radio. It is probably the most inexpensive clock radio in retail stores at only $5.00. Durabrand is a Wal-Mart exclusive brand, therefore it is difficult to find elsewhere. This clock radio is pretty simple and basic. It has the standard time and wake-up functions as well as an AM/FM tuner. That is about it for the features. This clock radio comes in a variety of colors, including silver, blue, purple, orange, and probably more. My specific one is purple and looks very attractive. The alarm is loud but… read full review »

To the PointMy mom was using a very outdated radio in her kitchen. On her own she bought the iCraig iPod Alarm Clock Radio. She doesn't own an iPod! I think she bought it because she likes the way it looks. — A Closer View — The style of the iCraig I was going to call retro. When I was almost done with this review I wanted to see if it was on the website: www.icragelectronics.com. It is and it is called "RETRO iPod ALARM CLOCK RADIO Model 3036." The reason for this is the rectangle box style with the large speaker in the front. Two large knobs for volume and tuning are on the… read full review »

Having a Grandmother that is hard of hearing, we purchased this product for her, that is easy to use, easy to play CD's, easy to control, she can easily insert her disks and begin playing her music with out all the fumbling around like with other CD players.  With the easy to use remote she can change tracks with no problems without having to get out of her chair from across the room.  The sound is beyond incredible and it instantly goes to her pre-selected volume that she enjoys.  Even tho it is pricey it's worth every cent to know that Grandma can hear her music and listen to… read full review »

I put this clock on my Bed Bath and Beyond wedding registry because it combined something I needed (an alarm clock) with something I enjoyed (nature sounds).  This turned out to be one of my favorite shower gifts! — The shape is uniqueand I've seen some complaints about that, but I like it.  It looks cool and fits with my decor.  Since it is wider and shorter than most clocks, I don't ever accidentally knock it over like I did with my old clock.  It's shape makes it so it's stable. — The alarm works greatjust like any alarm.  You can set it to either beep,… read full review »

I bought this directly from Boston(AUS) and was very happy, great sound, really nice user interface. After 3 years it started to buzz, buzz got louder and louder, as loud as the alarm, no way you could leave it turned on. — Took it to Boston(AUS) who said 'it's the transformer, it just happens, it's unrepairable, get a new radio' — Don't get me wrong, I don't want a free repair, I'm happy to pay, I just want my radio fixed. — Emailed Boston(USA), tried all the email addresses on their site, eventually got a response from the service department 'here's a contact for our… read full review »

I bought this clock radio after seeing a display in Target. I recognized the good name of Boston Accoustics so I turned it on. What an amazing sound! It is small in stature and not modern looking but at the same time takes up little space. I can forego the looks (rather plain looking) for the wonderful full base sound that come out of this radio. This Receptor Radio you can wake-up to an alarm or radio. This radio tunes stations I could not get with my other clock radio. You can preset stations for easy navigation. What is really great is that this has an AUX input for any MP3… read full review »

in need of an alarm to wake me up, a Wal-Mart shopper

My boyfriend bought me this clock because I needed a dual-alarm clock that would actually wake me up.  Well, the alarm is great for getting my attention - but 90 percent of the time it doesn't go off!  Sometimes it will chirp once at the time it is set for... sometimes it does nothing.  Actually, MOST times it does nothing.  I don't think it's gone off in weeks.  It's nice that it sets itself, and that it has a backup power supply, but it is virtually useless as far as being an ALARM clock. —  On the upside, my boyfriend now wakes me up instead, which… read full review »

This radio comes in a pair. You get the mobility of communication without the cost of phone plans. They are great to use in a convoy when traveling or moving. Also nice to have around the house when one is on the inside of the house and the other is outside. They really have a clear sound and a neat swivel to wear them on your belt.… read full review »
