Great idea for a product: CD player, ipod player and radio in one unit, but the sound quality isn't too great, the radio has poor reception, and my ipod doesn't charge in this unit. So, back it goes.

My old Logitech little portable speakers that I use with an ipod charger plugged into the wall has better sound and for less dough, Joe.

Probably a good unit for kids like some of the reviews say. If quality sound and charging are important to you, you might want to skip this.

This is a CD/radio/MP3 player and I love it. It is compact, has great sound, a remote and is easy to use. It is all I expected and more.

I like this system which has cd player, and everything works great.

I hope the cd player would add MP3 playback feature.

I received my item about two hours ago and have been listening to it since! It adapts to all four of our iPods and works with both burned and bought CD's. The sound is great and loud! I read other reviews that the sound wasn't as good low but I had no problem with this at all! The radio has a little static...I could probably move it to a different location for better reception if I wanted, but I didn't buy it for the radio. The instruction manual is quite vague and not too helpful but over all it's a terrific product!

I love this stereo, it is exactly what I wanted. It is portable (took it to a BBQ this past weekend) and cool looking. I love that I can play my i pod and I love that it comes with a remote. The only thing I notice is a clicking sound coming through the speakers when the i pod is playing, but I play the music loud so I only notice it when the music is quiet or between songs. I radio doesn't have the best range, but I don't use that much. So overall I love this stereo.
