Purchaser Pop, rock or dance fan
- Good points:
- Nice sound no crackling crisp and clear on BBC stations on DAB. Sound on FM no problems.Nice design looks good in my kitchen
- Bad points:
- Eats batteries so we have to use mains, which is disappointing as we would like to take the radio to any place where there is no mains. Reception on DAB could be a lot better but maybe that is down to my location this is a shame as we bought the radio to use DAB for the more obscure radio stations. Picks up BBC stations OK.
