In sum, i'm favorably enough impressed to write this review and feel my $70 or so expenditure was money well spent.


I suppose it is a little expensive-- though you shouldn't be paying the list price-- i think this radio is totally worth it for...  Read More


I spent around 80 bucks for it and it might be my favorite all-time amazon item purchase.


I wish i hadn't spent the extra money for it, as for my purposes it is useless.

Shipping


I sent an email to the us sangean reps, and they nicely sent me some replacement strips (really nice customer service).


The radio as shipped is expected to run on two d-cell batteries.

Packaging/appearance

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This way i can easily listen to my morning news programs with the volume turned down relatively low and i dont disturb other people early in the morning


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Now i just keep the volume down low and carry this with me using the handle


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When im ready to head out the door i just hang the radio on the towel bar in the bathroom and away i go


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I was thinking of coming back and buying one as a gift but was dismayed by the price


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Ive tried other shower radios in the past which were only 20 or 30 dollars and they had a very weak tinny sound


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Besides you could only listen to the very few stations that would tune in with relatively little static


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The sound is great even when you turn it up loud to be heard over the sound of the shower
