DreamSky AM FM Radio Portable - Shortwave Radio Battery Powered or Plug in Wall for Home Outdoor, Strong Reception, Large Dial Easy to Use, Digital Time Display, Transistor Antenna, Seniors Small Gfit

Sounds better than I expected for a device this size (the length of my hand -- palm plus fingers -- from side to side). Pulls and locks in FM stations far better than radios I've used in the past. Looks stylish too -- very clean and sophisticated; I'd admire it if I saw it out in public. The controls don't feel quite as solid as the ones on vintage radios, but they're not flimsy either, so with gentle use, they should last a long time. I had it up and running in minutes without even reading the manual. The digital clock is as easy to set as the ones on a microwave oven.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I was looking for a compact radio to put in the rv and this was my styleSound quality:Surprisingly, this little radio has a wonderful sound! Very easy to listen to. Battery life:I wish the battery life was a little longer but it's nice that I can plug it in when I need to. I did play it a lot and the batteries only lasted about a week. Value for money:I think the value was on point.

A simple radio. Works on batteries or plug in. Nice digital display of time and channels. You have to turn a dial to desired channels. There is no scan and cannot save multiple channels. It does save the last channel used on AM and FM. I can’t get anything on SW. It works as advertised and is inexpensive. I use it in a bathroom when getting dressed and listen to news on AM or switch to FM for music. This fits my needs. Sound is ok. Some minimal static on AM. FM clear signal.

This is a great little radio. The tuning and volume controls are spot on. I use it mainly in my home office, but I can take it easily to another room or outside and the quality will still be outstanding. I live in the country and the other radios I've purchased had really bad reception here. I would honestly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good portable radio.

Purchased for a quick fix at the office when our ancient radio finally went out. This is so small and convenient. And actually can get quite loud!

Love the radio. Nice and compact. Shows the time. Great reception. Works very well. No complaints.

I bought this to replace an old 1990s Timex clock radio in our bathroom. We like to listen to the AM news radio stations in the morning so needed something to replace the Timex, which gave up the ghost after 30 years of service. Likely, caps went bad but I wasn't going to go through a $20 radio to fix 'em.This model's radio has poor signal selectivity on all bands. Where the Timex would pull in AM stations noise-free, this radio tends to pick up the station, nearby cell phone harmonics, bad LED bulb harmonics, and Uncle Ted's stray thoughts. It makes listening less enjoyable that it should be.After about a year in a humid bathroom, the power/volume knob has gone wonky. You have to fiddle to get the radio to turn on. The power switch likely needs to be cleaned and lubed as its likely got some corrosion on the contacts from the shower-humid air.

This is a simple, easy to use, and clear sounding radio. It's a little smaller than I thought it would be. I believe it could fit inside a cigar box. It has only one speaker so no stereo sound, but it is a very clear speaker. The sound quality is quite good, with acceptable volume. The reception is great. It will pick up all the expected stations in my area. Comes with an AC adapter and will also run on 4 AA batteries, not included. There is a jack for headphones. About the only thing I would consider a negative is that there are no presets so you have to use the dial.
