broke the first week i got it

(1 out of 5) by Amazon Customer on Sep 21, 2001
I got this shower cd player as a gift. I took great care of it, even took it out of the shower when i wasnt in it so that my little sister couldnt break it. it makes loud noises like "boom boom boom" it has really...reception,and the cd player doesnt work. i checke the battries, that wasnt it. now the person who got me the gift is sending it back, but i dont want another one. i feel that if you're goig to buy a $100 present, it shouldnt be this shower cd player

Definately not worth the price

(2 out of 5) by Jackie on Dec 26, 2002 (Florida)
I love to sing in the shower, so my grandparents decided that this would make a good Hanukkah gift for me. Unfortunately, I can only use it once or twice before I have to change the batteries. When you first put in batteries, both the CD player and radio work great. But then, after a shower or two, the radio will play about 30 seconds of a song before decaying into an annoyingly loud "boom boom boom" noise. The CD player will either skip or not start at all. The only remedy I've found to this problem is changing the batteries, which are still practically at full power. Now, I must say that I "abuse" this device...I use it daily, leave it in the shower, and probably expose it to numerous cleaning chemicals, but from reading the other reviews I have determined that my problems might not stem only from this behavior. Bottom line: Don't get it if you plan to use it more than a few times,

It works...

I just got one of these on sale. The clock died 1 day after it was placed in the shower. The radio itself works fine. Next time I am going to try and get a digital tuner.

Hunk of Junk

(1 out of 5) by Lisa J. Strandt on Jun 18, 2006 (Waukesha, WI)
Bought this player used it twice and now it doesn't work. I took great care of it. Every time I put a CD in it it reads no disc. It's not the batteries. Wish I would have saved the receipt so I could send this hunk of junk back.

singing in the rain

(4 out of 5) by M. VARGHESE on Jan 10, 2007 (NYC)
Bot this with much intrepedation, after reading other reviews. Pleased to say it works great. Wished it looked better, and the buttons were better organized. LCD screen is small, for a large radio. But great reception to NPR in NYC and CD works well too. Running on rechargeables for over month, both CD and radio, no problems. Singing in the....
