I've read some of the other reviews, and yes, this item has it's limitations. If you are like me, though, you either just want to hear music in the shower or bath or you are trying to be considerate to anyone who can hear you sing. I get good reception from the radio and get many channels. My cds play fine, the mirror doesn't fog and the clock helps me keep track of time. You can't adjust the settings (such as treble and bass), but for crying out loud, it's a CD player/radio for your shower...how good does it have to be? I am thrilled with the performance of this product and would recommend it to anyone that wants a little music in their lives (or more specifically, their showers)!

The volume on this radio is diabolical. When the water goes on, i hear nothing. To add insult to injury, the player stopped working within 2 months. Spend the extra money and get something that lasts a while with better sound quality and volume. You will not regret it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the best, but it does the job, April 5, 2003

When I bought this product, I guess I forgot to check the reviews. They said it was HORRIBLE. After I bought it, I found out that they were sort of right. It's very bulky for one. Also, when I listened to CDs, they started to skip. I believe that it was because of the CD player. If you really want a CD player for your shower, I would advise not to get this one.

However, when it comes to the radio player it's fine. The sound isn't amazing and it is kind of hard to find your radio stations, but it still does the job.

I guess I should have payed more attention to the makers of this product. Jensen isn't really well known for making reliable products. For this kind of product, I would advise sticking with Sony or another brand that makes very reliable products. In conclusion, I would say that this product is not worth your money. But it is a very fun way to listen to music in the shower or bath, so just go buy the same type of product from a different brand.
