2.0 out of 5 stars There's better ones out there, January 3, 2006

This is a decent shower radio, but for a little extra $, you should bite the bullet and get a better one. First, I should note that I found myself not using the CD player, and only the radio. ***The radio tuner is *not* digital --- thus, tuning stations is unnecessarily (slightly) more difficult. Shouldn't digital tuning be the standard in 2005/6? Finally, this unit is HEAVY (largely fueled by its 6 D batteries!) --- SO HEAVY, that every 3-4 months or so, despite it's strong suction cups attaching to the shower wall, it *plummets to the earth*, shatters open, batteries spinning everywhere. It's a miracle it's continued to work. I labored along with this radio for exactly one year (since Christmas 2004), and told my wife that the next time it fell, it was getting relegated to the guest bathroom (where hopefully, due to less use, it will not fall!) It fell again a few days ago, and now I'm shopping for a smaller, higher quality unit. Do yourself a favor and spend an extran $10 or $20 on something of higher quality...

The CD function stopped working after a few months and the tuner is an absolute hair trigger - hitting it by accident closing the shower curtain this morning moved it more than 3MHz!

To avoid the problem the other reviewer notes concerning it falling, I untied one end of the rope that allows it to hang. I looped that around the shower curtain and retied it. That lets the cord act as a safety line for when the suction fails.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works Great!, January 9, 2007

My son really enjoys this product. He was always ruining portable cd players in the bathroom and this isn't getting ruined.
