This was THE WORST product I have ever purchased. It did not even work! AVOID THIS AT ALL COSTS. IT WILL RIP YOU OFF.

I have now received, and returned, two of these products. On both units, the clock went haywire after the first day. On the second unit, the fm selection went haywire, sometimes working and sometimes not. The idea of a radio/clock for the shower is a good one, but this product does not deliver. It obviously did not work in my shower as directed. The unit was supposed to be water resistent and made for the shower, but it does not work that way! I could understand if I had gotten a defective unit to start, but when the replacement unit did not work as well, I have to be suspect of this product.

Do not buy this item. First it is so heavy that when you hang it in the shower the hooks holding it break (this has happened twice). The mirror is not fogless, the radio reception is horrible and the flourescent light goes very dim after about three uses. The company sent me a 2nd radio after a problem with the first and that one was worse than the other.

This product is completely worthless. The radio reception is dodgy, at best, slips repeatedly, and is not loud enough to be heard over the sound of the shower. The mirror is not fogless, and, worst of all, TURNED BRIGHT BLUE within the first week of use. No kidding, blue. So, I now have a mirrored shower radio and (1) the radio doesn't work, (2) in the shower, and (3) the mirror is useless. This product is a piece of junk.

The only component that works is the radio. The clock is broken and resets itself everytime I try to turn the mirror lights on. I tried to hang it, and the plastic screws supporting the lanyard broke. I was even stupid enough to send it out for repairs; I found the screw still broken at the same spot, and the clock still at 12. I dare not use it in the shower to test it's water durability. I only keep it because my husband got it for me.

I was extremely disappointed with this product. The radio reception is bad, the clock would stop working randomly, and the mirror, not being a fogless mirror, is absolutely pointless in the shower. For what the product turned out to be, I payed too much.

After a few months of use, both hooks that hold the radio up have snapped off. The tuner slips onto other station, rust has been leaking out of the non-waterproofed container, and eventually it just stopped working altogether. Absolutely a huge waste of money for a product that wouldn't be good out of the shower, but even worse in the shower.

First I found that the radio was only almost water-resistant. Just splashing the mirror a few times managed to short the radio out. The tiny tabs that hold the mounting rope to the back of the radio broke within the first few days. I wrote Wilson and they sent a second set. Those lasted a few more days before breaking off in the middle of the night sending the radio crashing around the tub. The lights are really dim and the radio hard to tune to a clear channel 50,000 watt radio station just fifty miles away.
