Solid
(4 out of 5) by L. Shell on Oct 21, 2008I bought this radio to use primarily on weekend camping trips. Overall it is great little radio. The sound quality for a 3 inch speaker is top-notch. It only gets distorted with the volume near max. The features are easy to figure out even without instructions. The materials are of high quality. The only beef I have is that the AM reception is not as good as other Sangean products I have used. It is good, just not great. The FM reception is above average and very clear. Also the battery life might be the best I've seen in a portable radio. Four cheap D batteries have easily lasted two three-day trips.
When at home we use this as a kitchen radio. It's small footprint and aux. input have proven to be very useful in this role. I love the weatherband features, particularly the standby alert for severe weather.
Overall it has proven to be a solid radio that serves it's purpose very well. I would strongly recommend this product if you are looking for good sound quality in a small, well built package.

Big improvement over other radios here
(4 out of 5) by Joshua C. Alpern on Oct 3, 2008 (Atlanta, GA USA)Bought the radio because one here (another brand/type) broke. Have a very high interference environment for AM broadcast band, and need a better quality radio to escape intense buzzing sounds from fluorescent lighting. This radio was a huge improvement, much clearer and more crisp. As a result I listen to it a great deal more than the radio which broke

Sangean Sonido Radio
(5 out of 5) by Happy Homemaker on Dec 27, 2007 (Arkansas, USA)This has to be the best portable radio ever. It runs AC/DC and is small enough to be easily carried around. This is the second one I've purchased - this one for a gift. I highly recommend it because of the excellent clarity of sound and ease of use.

An amazing and versatile radio
(5 out of 5) by Jocko One on Dec 10, 2007I'm completely satisfied with this radio. The quality both in construction and sound is outstanding. The ease of operation and simplicity of set-up is again top in my book and I've researched many before deciding on this product. One minor feature I would have liked would be an internal battery charger but again that is a very minor point.

c.Crane Sonido Radio
(5 out of 5) by The Critic on Jul 16, 2009 (State College,PA USA)The Sonido Radio has excellent reception of A.M. stations,F.m. and weather are also of high quality. The set is relatively small ,so it fits in places other radios of similar quality would not.The inputs for earphones and other external devices(eg.mp3) is handy.I was aware that the TV stations would no longer be available,but this was no loss. The weather alert feature is awesome!
