I own several of this Sony. It pulls in stations that I need. I have tried other brands of radios, but they do not have the signal strength of the Sony.

I wanted an old style Walkman radio for walking outdoors or on my treadmill. This product was exactly what I wanted and Sony is a very reliable brand.

My wife is legally blind. Some ballparks provide "radios" with the team feed inside the park. Most don't so she needs a good portable radio to listen to the game to help her understand what she sees.

Bought this to use at the gym, was surprised at how good it sounds! And I love the headphones! Much richer sound than you get with earbuds! And comfortable! Gets a lot of stations both FM and AM.
I would definitely recommend this Sony Walkman, in fact I bought a second one for my BF

You can clip on the portable radio and head out the door for your walk or run. The sound is great and you can preset your favorite listening channels.

Purchased this portable radio to use while working. It has great reception, it's easy to use, fits in your pocket and works well when you are on the move. Only comes with over the ear headphones but you can purchase earbuds separately, Battery life seems good with only one AAA battery.

I have used others and they have failed or been complicated to use. This one is so simple a really old guy or a little kid could figure out. Happy with it Lo tech is sometimes a good answer.

The radio works good but I have not heard a weather report on it. Don't rely on it for a bad weather sensor. It could be smaller and lighter.

This replaces an older unit of about the same size and weight but now with only a single battery (progress). Since it has no speaker, I'm surprised that Sony has not reduced the size and weight over the years, but I guess that shows that this type of product is a low priority for Sony and other suppliers. Still, it's a pretty good unit, especially in strong signal ares.

He loves it, he uses it everyday when he goes out for his walk, he says it's better than his radio unit since it picks up more stations!

Needed a walkman radio for my mom. This was pretty much the only option available. I've had this sane model before, decent quality.
