Overall, this is great. Trying to listen to the radio is hard as a station will come in great and then cut out for no reason. The digital display makes it easier to get to the right station but you still have to play with the dial to try and get a clear signal.

WORSE THAN THE WORST

This little radio/cd player was bought as a replacement to our 20 year old one that was on the fritz. Should've kept the old one because it worked more reliably than this one does. The radio tuning is whacked, with the actual dial frequency unable to be tuned to. The CD player is problematic -- sometimes it plays, sometimes it skips, sometimes it gets stuck. At first I thought my brand new CD was the problem. Nope -- definitely this radio. And since Best Buy only offers returns within 14 days, I couldn't return it and Memorex wouldn't do anything about it, telling me only to take it back to the store of purchase. Definitely NOT the Memorex of my youth!

We bought this for my wife to use in her craft room. It has great radio reception in an area with not many stations and poor signal strength. She is happy with the sound quality and ease of use.

Bought it to replace a similar one that had gotten wet in the rain and wouldn't work anymore. Has a nice sound for the CD's and was reasonably priced. Also easy to move from place to place.

I have only one complaint with the boom box and it seems to have fixed itself..About a week ago it wouldn't play in stereo for about a half an hour I'm not sure why but it fixed itself and is back to playing in stereo on both speakers again :)

The telescopic antenna is about 4 inches long. The indoor FM reception was very poor. The frequency display is digital, but it's still an analogue knob. Overall the unit is cheaply made. Definitely not a good choice for FM radio.
