A poor contender in the Roberts range, I have now returned it and gone for the more traditional Roberts DAB radio, which is substantially more expensive. Sadly it appears the "buzzing" referred to by several other purchasers is a very real and annoying issue. It is maddening. (I read the reviews after buying which was my mistake.) It does surprise me that Roberts have not addressed this issue as I could not imagine anyone wishing to listen to it. The potential otherwise for it is very good if only they can get rid of this buzzing.

I bought this for my husband's birthday who listens to radio (radio 4) all the time. This product has been released in Sep 2011 and it hasn't reviewed in Which? magazine. My husband is a fussy person so I had to make sure the radio had all the features he wanted. And he loves it! Here are the great features:
-Great look
-Built in charger (a must!)
-Nice handle
-Good battery life (has got big 4 C type rechargeable batteries)
-Has both FM and DAB radio
-Clear sound
So far we haven't found any bad features! We really adore this radio. Good reasonable price too.

Really impressed with how simple it was and how nice it was to use, but we sent it back because of a buzz coming from the plastic vibrating whenever anything bassy came on the radio, or if we played music through it. Otherwise I would have kept it and been happy with it. Sounded good, too, although would have been nice if it had a simple tone control (Which it doesn't)

What I wanted
A nice old fashioned radio for the kitchen. The only downside is sound on inputs from other audio e.g. ipod and it crackles sometimes.

Roberts "Vintage" radio
A quality product at a good price. The reception is excellent, with no distortion and the tone,
considering the size of the speakers is all that I could ask for.
