If you're looking for a nice, compact, retro, simplistic 'throwback' table radio - this is the one. Perfect for a kitchen or bedroom - simple enough for mom to use and enjoy. The sound- while not Bose quality - is very clean and crisp. FM sensitivity for a tabletop is excellent. Add in the AUX input and headphone input - and they have a WINNER. The only drawback is the AM sensitivity - which isn't nearly as good as the FM. Buy one !

It's not a fancy radio, but since I only use it in the kitchen it works. I thought about getting a Tivoli, but I really couldn't justify spending that much in mind for something that I was going to listen to while I cleaned the kitchen. Plus, I am only listening to NPR and it does an adequate job. Really, it just looks a little snazzier than comparable models. You can't go wrong if you are looking for something basic.

Good sound, nice "RETRO" design, takes up minimal space, easy to use, AM/FM stations. Value for price.

I had this radio a year before it stopped working. The sound quality was good, and I liked the simplicity of of the design. The customer service at Emerson definitely has room for improvement however, and after dealing with them I don't think I'll buy another radio from them. I'm willing to pay a little more for a radio that will last longer and come with good customer service.

I have two of these radios and both have the same problem--the AM/FM switch allows both bands at first but soon, only FM will hold its tuning. I have returned one to the company but the replacement had the same flaw, If you only want FM, its not bad for the price---but what about Rush Limbaugh?

I bought this for my wife when it first came out. The sound and reception are fine, but it's got a faulty am/fm switch. She listens almost exclusively to AM, but it'll switch to FM on it's own. When we hit it really hard on the top, it'll usually go back to AM. Of course, this didn't begin until the warranty had lapsed. Needless to say, I recommend you look for a different brand.

The radio was faulty so returned to manafactuer and was reimbursded by Amazon,com for postage.
Item was as discribed so am very satisfied by the replacemnt.
Amazon.com's interest in their customers is unprecidented in these times.
