Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the Tabletop FM/HD Radio's excellent sound quality, ease of use, and good reception. Many appreciate its compact size and the inclusion of HD radio. However, some users note that the battery life could be improved, and the lack of AM radio is a drawback for some. A few also mention that the volume and controls could be enhanced for better usability.

    The signal strength wasn't that great where I needed it. I believe it was the building not the radio.

    I will be returning the radio as it is so hard to install the batteries. The batteries are AA and I was scared I would mess up the wire that the batteries have to be attached to. There are 4 batteries and two go in the bottom and two on top of the first two batteries.

    In Saddlebrooke Arizona, unable to get clear stations. also did not realize that this was an FM only radio. AM is longer range, so this radio is of no use to me.

    Not very good tuner. Antenna is not very well designed as it breaks easily. I went through two of these radios. This is the second one. The first one I got was purchased without signing up for rewards account at the time.

    Dont be fooled like I was. Just assumed it had AM. So bought it and was very surprised to find out that it was FM and HD only. THis should have been stated on the outside of the box that it was in but No. Who ever heard of buying a radio with no AM. Y

    The included antennas do not pick up well at all, only able to pick up 2 or 3 stations in the Riverside CA area, where I should be able to receive A LOT of stations. Disappointed overall, may return this item.

    Can't get clear sound without static. It's ok if you can get the antenna to pick up a strong single. Not expecting much so it's relatively ok for the price.
