1.0 out of 5 stars Save your money...Mine is just awful!, February 22, 2008

By	Tom Sanders "Tom Sanders" (Lansing, Mi United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Crosley Radio Cr612-Bk Corsair Alarm Clock/Radio (Black) (Electronics)

I loved the picture of this item...I had just the place to put it in my home where it would look great. It does look great. It just hardly works. The whole thing only weighs a pound or two...this should have clued me in right away when unpacking it. The switches have an imprecise and awful feel and seem very delicate. The sound quality is very poor (Remember those less than $5 transistor radios?) and the reception is worse. Even the strongest stations in my area only come in with a great deal of fuzzy sound and you can always hear the radio stations near them in the back ground. I haven't bought anything electronic that was this bad in years. Don't be fooled by the good looks...in this case beauty really is only skin deep.

4.0 out of 5 stars Cute and retro!, June 7, 2008

By	Holly (Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Crosley Radio Cr612-Bk Corsair Alarm Clock/Radio (Black) (Electronics)

My son got this for Christmas and for some weird reason it would not always play when we pushed play for the cd....sometimes we had to push the button several times then push stop to get it to play...it would also switch to military time at random. These things happen even with the best of electronics, sometimes exchanges need to be made. We ordered another and returned the first one, we haven't had any problems and it has been working perfectly. It looks great in his room, and we love it! I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a cute retro style radio. My son loves cars and it goes perfectly in his room with all of his vintage car signs. We also plan to purchase it in pink for our daughter. Overall it is a great radio/cd player!

5.0 out of 5 stars P-E-R-F-E-C-T !!, December 17, 2007

By	Cello Mom "Deb" (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews

We bought the BLUE version of this for my son on his 5th birthday and cannot tell you how much he loves it. My son wanted a Disney Cars version, which was more expensive and a piece of junk... this goes well with the artwork from that movie- and is a much better investment for our money. He LOVED it. He has had it for about 6 months and it has been his most prized possession ever since.
The alarm feature is nice and the fact that this will easily grow with him into adulthood.
The sound quality is excellent, it is simple to use and very well designed. Any product that can stand up to frequent unsupervised use by my child gets a big thumbs up for quality and durability.
The most striking feature of this radio though, is its design. It gets a lot of attention from visitors. It is a really cool item for anyone's bedside.
Great gift idea- any little boy would be fascinated by this- and encouraged to discover music. Great idea for an adult as well. I'd personally love the pink one.
