Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
Rating: - Excellent for emergencies
I chose this radio as a backup for power/cable outages. The TV band gets good reception (I'm in a metro area with few hills). Unfortunately, when TV goes digital in February '09, the TV reception feature won't work. Sony notes this on the box.
I've always had good luck with Sony products - you can't beat the quality and dependability. The radio is a good buy, even without the TV feature.
Rating: - ¡great lil radio!
I ordered this particular radio based on Internet reviews and it is indeed a great little radio. It offers lots of stations, weather (important for where we live), and works excellent from the batteries. Perfectly sized, light weight, with good sound. I could NOT find a similar item in the big-stores. They offered only CD and/or alarm radios (not needed). This is my portable, dependable, counter-top (or my bedroom bureau top) radio, AND the one we have for storms!
Rating: - Not worth it
I just returned this item for credit, although Wall Street's return policies are terrible and it took several different e-mails to finally get the return address. Also, they want the UNopened box. How can you tell if you like something or not without opening the box???? (1) It seems like a cheaply-made item, to me. (2) It states on the box that it won't receive TV programs after February of next year, but the advertising did not state that - otherwise I would not have bought it. (3) It started making noises and giving static on every station. So I would not recommend this item.
Rating: - Fine little radio-- a fine bargain.
This is the third one on these radios I've purchased through many years. I give them rough treatment by frequently shuttling them between greenhouse and home, and have found them indispensable.
Rating: - forget the weather band feature
The am/fm is fine but the radio is useless as a weather band radio. I received it as gift to be kept in my garage/shop area to be able to check weather reports before fishing trips. As a small craft boater weather reports are critical. The Weather band tuning is difficult(impossible) because of minute adjustments and faint reception. I have relegated it to musical use on the boat and beach where it works great. I don't know if that tv function works but I would not reccomend spending any money on this product under the guise of it being a weather radio.
