Bought it for the price while away from home. Volume is poor. You can't set it on the windowsill for better reception, you have to have it within inches of your ear to hear it.

I'm truly sorry but I'm so unhappy with the item but I just got out of the hospital and my original box and papers were thrown out by my landlady. I was going to send it back to ask for a refund but I don't know how at this point.

This radio is cute and very small. Easily fits in your pocket. I ordered it to provide white noise, and it works great for that. I have to change the batteries more frequently than expected.

Was in the electronics section looking for those wipes you use on TV screens. Didn't find those but DID see this nice little thing, and have been looking for something just like this to leave on for our little furbaby while we're at work in case the tv cuts off from the wifi and stops playing. Does exactly what it's supposed to, sound comes out clear and way more punchy than something this small has any right to! Channel quality is great, keep in mind im pretty much Cali's neighbor, so West Coast buyers should also have no issues there. 10/10!

Zachary - 3 years ago, Verified purchaser
It does say pocket, but I wasn't really expecting a pocket that small. It's minimalistic. the dials and buttons are labeled within the molded plastic, it takes a moment or two to find what each style or button does. I was able to get radio stations on the AM and FM band, the sound is about what one would expect from a radio this size and at this price point.

Small & Loud

4 out of 5 stars
Nikki - 3 years ago
I needed a small radio to use for when I went to the drive in. It's tiny but works great. We were able to clearly hear the movie an the volume goes up high. I read reviews and saw most people didn't like it or had a issue. I had neither. It's good for a day at the beach, drive in. Also only 9.99 cant beat that.
