4.0 out of 5 stars sleek but a bit high maintenance!, 11 Aug 2004
I got one of these for my birthday.

Its great, sleek, generally a good sound but prone to losing signal for no apparent reason sometimes and 'gurgles' when signal is low. Quite heavy for its size probably because of the three aa batteries it needs to work.

I highly recommend that you get rechargeable batteries and a charger as it can use a set of three within eight hours or less (if you forget to turn it off!).

Apart from that its great.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great quality but heavy!, 8 April 2005
By R. Preston "Rowan" (Manchester, England.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Sound quality, ease of use, the extra stations and the equaliser are all brilliant. It looks and feels solid and stylish with its anodised aluminium finish and blue backlight.

On the downside it does munch through batteries a fair bit and is kinda big and heavy for a pocket gadget.

Having read the other reviews I agree with the reception issues to a degree. In city centres all around the country, the reception is great, but once you head out into the 'burbs it can get very sketchy. I live and work in a city centre so reception isn't an issue but I can see how it might be for others. It's probably more to do with the coverage of the digital signal than the quality of this radio though.

I've had this radio for over a year now and it nothing has gone wrong with it yet (touch wood) which is always nice when a technology is new.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb and stylish, 7 April 2006
By A Customer
Tried an analogue radio at first and couldn't get any reception from my house, so thought DAB would be worse but decided to give it a go anyway. Very impressed with this radio. It's extremely easy to use, fantastic design and I can actually get a decent reception. The sound is very good too. I would imagine that if reception were poor, it would be no use to anyone, but reception has proved better than a normal analogue radio, so a thumbs up to this one.
