Product Reviews

(4 stars) - A Great Buy for the Price
I bought this Radio/CD player for my kitchen as I also like to play my favorite CD's while cooking! I read several reviews on different brands and decided to try this one as the price was so reasonable. I will say the quality is amazing for the price! I also got free shipping which made it an even better buy. It's neat and compact for a shelf space. The delivery process was very fast too...so I will do a lot more shopping on Amazon!!

(2 stars) - Poor sound quality
I have had this for almost 2 years now and I think it was a waste of money. It functions fantastic as an alarm clock but the sound quality for music is terrible! I was a little surprised to find it had a dial for the volume control and also a dial for radio tuning. A bit old school for the digital world we live in today. You can't just tune it to 102.7 or whatever station number you are looking for. You have to move the dial a little this way or that to find the station you want.
It does have an input to hook up your mp3 but again the sound quality is still horrible.
I expected more from Sony.

(1 stars) - CD Function Died After Six Months
This radio/CD player would have been great except for one thing: the CD player quit after six months. After that, you could not choose to be awakened by music on a CD. When a product fails like that, it just isn't worth your trouble to send it off for repairs. These products need to work the first time and last for at least a few years. Six months is too short a time for a major feature to go out. Definitely not recommended.

(3 stars) - limited function
I bought this for the clock and CD features for my son. I play CD to put him to sleep but did not realize the function is limited. It doesn't have the random or repeat function so it stops after the CD is done. I can't play the music all night for him. It is very basic but not very cheap. It is also bigger than what the picture shows so takes up room on the desk. It is also not very quiet but the display is large enough to see at night.

(2 stars) - No repeat functionality!
Somehow I missed the other reviews that mentioned the lack of repeat feature on this CD player. My entire reason for CD player shopping is an infant who likes to sleep to ocean waves, so not having the repeat function is a dealbreaker. The volume is very muted when using an ipod and the enclosed patch cable as well. My second Amazon return ever!
