Advantages: Great Features And Looks At A Great Price
Disadvantages: Sound Is Sometimes A Bit Off
I was given this for my nrithday after some very true yet humourous comments about my inability to wake up on time for anything. And let me tell you, the alarm on this will definetly wake you up, because if it can wake me up then it would wake up a hippopottamus that has been sleep deprived for a month whilst they are sleeping underwater. But then, this is not just an alarm clock, it is also a fully functioning, and rather good DAB digital radio, which provides great reception and can pick up a large number of statiosn for all your listening plaeasure.
At the moment, we have two digital radios, one being in the kitchen and the other in my room, the former of the two can't pick up any of the BBC stations, whereas mine does, and i think that perhaps this shows its superiority and why this is my DAB radio of choice, as i have seen and tried others for myself to check the differences.
This comes at an affordable price in comparion to some of the other options on the market and as such will save you those precious pennies in this time of economic crisis (at the time of writing). And then the controls are easy to use and understand, allowing anyone to set the alarm or change the presets of the stations, which i managed without ever resorting to reading the instructions. Thus far also, i have had no problems with any of the features and it is working perfectly well. Another feature that i also like, is the ability to input headphones into it, although this won't be the most highly used feature, it is a nice addition nonetheless. The display is easy to read and the strength of the backlight is dependant on the strength of the light around it, so if you are afraid that the backlight will annoy you as you try to get to sleep, then fear no further as this is sorted for you.
Overall, i love thsi radio and use it whenever i want to listen to the radio or for whe i need to get up early for work etc. The only problem is that sometimes the sound quality can dip if the cable that acts as the aerial is not correctly positioned. But, the aesthetics are good and the chrome is very nice sitting on my bedside cabinet, and reflects the quality of the technolgy within it.
Summary: Great Piece Of Kit That Is Great As An Alarm Clock Radio Double
