I listen to the radio most of the time and have owned at least 20 different 'walkman' style radios. This is the best yet.
It has the essential mono switch for poor reception areas, a lock so you can be active without having to retune repeatedly, runs for ever on a single aaa, weighs nothing and can sit in a top shirt pocket without you noticing it's there. This may be unique to me but I like going to sleep listening to the radio, my wife doesn't, the 90 min snooze function saves batteries and the controlls are so well laid out I can operate it entirely in the dark. It is solidly built and has survived the abuse these radios get from me better than any other.
There is only one competitor that I know of (and sadly I do spend time looking) the Sony SRF-S84. This is about the same price but has wheel tuning not digital, no presets and is more flimsy, albeit even smaller.
First time I've been moved to write a review - I only came here to buy another one (I've lost the battery cover on mine, it still holds the battery snd works fine but I'm afraid they'll have stopped making them by the time I finally kill the current one.

This is a superb personal radio with easy to use controls, easy to set up and an ideal size. Earphones are comfortable and don't fall out at the least shake of the head! What really surprised me was the quality of sound from such a small unit. All in all, a good buy that I would recommend to anyone. Shame about the delivery of the third party supplier.

This is my second radio, and there is no comparison with the one that is built into my MP3 player. I'm a great fan of radio, and this is just the ticket for my long commute to work. Its use is simple and self-explanatory, so it won't matter if you loose the instructions. You can pre-set it to 10 stations on FM and 5 stations on AM and it's got an amazing sound quality. The pre-sets work a treat and are simple to change at any time. It's relatively heavy which surprised me. It uses a single ordinary triple A battery which means no charging up over night. All plain straightforward high quality. I ordered on a Thursday evening and it arrived on Saturday morning.

Roberts' Fan disappointed
This is an expensive FM/AM radio. The quality is of the 'cheap and nasty' variety. It looks good but any moving around meant an invasion of static. Read more
