This item is a radio that is also an alarm clock, not an alarm clock that is also a radio.
The unit itself is of beautiful quality and functional design, much more befitting of a bedroom than a kitchen. The piano black wooden cabinet and the knobs and dials look and feel top drawer. The excellent sound quality is richly mellifluous at a range of volumes from very quiet to quite loud. I am hearing aspects of familiar music that i have not noticed before. There is no adjustment for tone, but none is necessary. The unit auto tunes itself for (30 here) stations and the exact time and date, and the user manual is clear and easy. The alarms seem to work fine. Ive been enjoying this radio so much, even when it is only on standby, it looks so classy.
There are settable 4 levels for brightness of the LCD display, but i find the dimmest a little too bright in my bedroom at night, and not quite bright enough to read in the morning ambient light. An auto-dim function would complete this fine piece of kit.
It is easily the second nicest thing that happens in my bedroom and i cannot recommend it enough.
It was delivered very promptly and well packaged by 'Ask'.

Bought this radio on the strength of growing up listening to an old Roberts radio my dad had. Remembered how good the sound was, and the quality build of it. Decided to go digital recently and so went for this model. Absolutely brilliant piece of kit. Love the range, the sound quality and the beautiful build quality. If you are looking for an easy to use, quality DAB radio then look no further, you wont be disappointed!

Very nice radio. Good points are:
well made, substantial, nicely finished,
good reception- some DAB radios struggle at our address, this one doesn't.
quick to turn on- other DAB radios make you wait several seconds before they play, this is quicker.
very good, natural sound, warm, full bass in particular
simple, intuitive controls.
only downsides are no remote control, and sound quality at it's best directly in front of the unit- less clear if you listen at an angle.
All in all, the best DAB radio we have in the house (we have 6 in total including a Pure Evoke).
