this cd/clock radio is great . i like the fact it has a battery backup for power loss and you can wake up to a cd as well as the radio. easy to set and loud alarm. the only thing that would make this prefect would be digital tunning for radio stations. otherwise its a good product that does what you want it to and looks nice doing it. this is a great gift for anyone

I recieved this as a gift and the first one would play the cd for about a minuite and then stop and show 00 on the display that is supposed to shown ( and initially would show) how many tracks are on the cd. I contacted amazon and they mailed me a replacement and a return label for the first one. I tried out the new one and it never even acknowledges that there is a cd in the unit at all and would spin for a second or two and then show 00 on the display and never play at all.

I am very dissapointed in this item and think that the entire product line must be defective.

I really hate that I have to return a gift at all. What I want to do is get a different cd player or gift certificate but I dont know if Amazon will let me do that yet... since it was a gift from someone.. but I am trying.

I DO NOT RECCOMEND getting this item at all. Very Disapointing and not worth the hassle.

I'd go with the garbage. The tuner is extremely hard to use because the numbers aren't aligned right, and only a few stations come in clearly on it. (My other radios all get more stations.) When playing a CD, it often skips in places that my other CD player doesn't, and sometimes even stops for no apparent reason. The only good point of it is that it has nice, big numbers, but I don't it's worth buying this just for that. Don't buy this, please; it's dangerous to have radios flying out of windows.

This unit worked well for a month or so then started stopping in the middle of a song. Sometimes it will start again - other times it will not play no matter what you do. The radio is just about useless as the tuning is so tight it is hard to line up a station. I have to say the alarm worked well as long as you put it on buzzer and not cd. Overall, spend a few extra bucks and get a better unit.
