I purchased this radio to give portable and easy access to internet radio. It achieved it purpose, with the added advantage of DAB radio when I'm away from a Wi-Fi connection. There's a nice solid feel to both the radio itself and its operation. Connecting to my home Wi-Fi was quite straight forward. Once access to the internet was established, the software required updating; this was simple enough, a matter of a few agreement selections and attachment to mains power (just in case the batteries ran out during the update process). Done!
A small point and not really a moan but.... The batteries required are 'D' type and are perhaps the most expensive to buy as normal or rechargeable, I do wonder if 'C' type, more readily available wouldn't have been better. (No doubt some technical issue)
All in all, an excellent radio with a warm and quite pleasing sound. A little expensive, but I think worth it.

It was our first time to purchase an Internet Radio. We had lived for some time in the UK and in the USA and had fond memories from that era of several favourite stations .
While it was always possible to listen to them online on the PC,it was a complicated arrangement and was devoid of the feel one gets from listening to radio in a more authentic and casual setting.
This product has really done "what it says on the tin"
Its very easy to use,very good instructions,nice product to look at,and has an exceptionally good quality sound reproduction.
We would confidentally recommend it to others. Other reviews have suggested that the use of D size batteries will add to its weight,I have only used it connected directly to the mains,but would concur with the views re battery size.
It goes without saying that the support service and delivery arrangements almost always associated with Amazon,as ever,was just perfect in this instance.

The Roberts Stream 202 is a fantastic internet radio. The sound quality is excellent. It's ability to connect to thousands of internet radio stations quickly and simply, plus being able to play podcasts make it the perfect kitchen or bedroom radio.
The only downsides are the styling looks a bit cheap (I purchased the white version which to my mind was an improvement on the other colours) and I missed the ability to scroll through and pause podcasts.
If you want to listen to internet radio (as well as FM and DAB) without any hassle and with fantastic clarity, then this is the perfect choice.

Easy to set up, easy to use and great sound.
As usual I took it out of the box and tried to set it up and use it with minimal use of the 70 plus pages of instruction manual - and it nearly worked! Read more
