I use the radio when I walk, which is not one of my favorite things to do. The ease of operation is great; however the reception fades in and out.

It doesn't get the reception I hoped for. The battery life was poor for the amount of time in use.

A great radio for jogging! But the headset broke after 16 days, two days after the return policy allows for returns. This is the second time I've had trouble with the headset. Not hard to replace, just inconvenient.
Otherwise, a great radio to be used when exercising.

This radio is just ok. It's bigger than it needs to be and AM channels don't come in that well. Sony used to make a similar one that was way better. There's not much a selection when it comes to these devices so this one is better than nothing

Programming the unit is a bit archaic. Reading the stations and clock is difficult and is not very bright. Would i purchase another one? - No.
