I bought this clock radio as a 10th birthday present for my son, and it does exactly what it says on the tin (ok, box). It has a dual alarm setting, cd player, dab radio and ipod/mp3 connection via a small wire. I don't know what the 1-star reviewer expected of this, but the sound is really good for a radio... it's not supposed to be as good as a top quality hi-fi but my son thinks it's fab and often turns the volume way up (without any distortion) until I 'ask' him to turn it down! The display light can be very bright if you want it to be or you can dim it or turn it off completely. It's a very compact and modern looking radio that's very easy to set up and use and well worth the £60 I paid for it. I'm even considering getting another 2 of these for my husband and my older son... it's that good!

got this for my gf and tested it and its class!! i dont know where the other reviewer got the 1 star from,it top quality from sony,built very good,no buzzing like most dabs and sound is realy good and clear so well worth the £100 i paid

Was bought this product by my boyfriend and son as a xmas present and it is brilliant!!! I dont get at all wot the reviewer who gave it one star was using but it def wasnt this, it does all it says and looks good as well. This is my 4th dab radio n the only one ive had that gets proper reception on all stations, sounds good and means you dont have a seperate cd player, alarm clock and docking station - its all in 1! My son and boyfriend (who argued about buying me this) now both want one, really highly recommended !

This really is one to avoid - so much so that it's on onroute back to AMazon for a refund. The sound (from the radion and CD) is not would you would expect from SONY,in fact put me in mind of those cheapo Binatone makes of years ago. Unit itself is more bulky than it needs to be and whilst the blue lighting is impressive it does not dull enough to just be aware of the time it felt as if it was lighting the whole room - handy I guess if you need to find your way without switching a light on but infuriating when trying to get to sleep!Once my refund has been given I will be looking for an alternative unit at the moment my 23 year old Sanyo has been ressurected!

I received this for Xmas and I love it. The dual alarm is easy to use. The radio DAB/FM is v.easy to tune in and a good sound as is the CD. The clock numbers are large and well lit with x3 different light settings - from dark to light (dark being well dark enough to sleep next to) Nice looking unit - maybe a little too flat as I need to sit up in bed to look at the time.
