After a couple of years the plastic sheet that covers the buttons eventually gets brittle and cracks. This is a great little radio. The button then seem to lose their water-resistant quality and even though I rarely get mine wet, they just stop working. I love the preset stations and auto-off timer. Battery life is decent if you only use the radio- I virtually stopped playing CDs because CDs drain the battery much faster.The big problem is the buttons are not well designed. Right now, my batteries are fully charged, but I cannot turn on the radio or even change the time. For the price, I would expect this radio to last more than 2-3 years, but I'll probably purchase a 3rd one anyway because otherwise I like it.
Everything about this radio is top quality. Great reception, great battery life, cds play nicely, clock works great, it even comes with sturdy rope to hang it with. Great purchase.
My fiance' and I listen to this Sony Shower CD Player & Clock Radio every day. Works great with our Sirius-XM Satellite Radio (which uses an "FM Modulator" to broadcast a signal throughout the house) and comes in crystal-clear. Trust Sony.
Also, I have used it to accompany myself in musical performances. This little AM and FM shower radio with CD player is great. It works great for small classes and rooms. It is well worth the price, having both the sound and the quality of all Sony products. I don't use it in the shower, though, since I have a cheap little shower radio that works just fine.I needed a portable CD player to use in Children's Bible classes and I didn't want to haul around a big boom box. I bought a cheap adapter so I wouldn't have to use so many batteries. I'm very happy with both products.
This was a birthday gift for my daughter, and she loves it. So far, there have been no problems with it at all. Thanks for a great product.
