Its the first simple radio I have ever owned that simply quit working for no reason. Would I buy this again.
This radio works very well while it actually worked. The unit can pull in even some of the weakest radio stations and the speaker can fill a room.
I bought this radio for its retro good looks. Not happy at all that it simply quit working.
However, after 6 months of use, it just stopped working. Until it stopped working, I used it 5-7 hours a day.
No. Junk.
This radio is for a countertop in the kitchen and having a major piece of hardware like an AC adapter trailing behind it sort of ruins the look. Had to take it back due to extremely large AC adapter. Very nice radio no doubt. But.nice radio. With Tivoli (and others) the AC power unit is contained within the radio itself and there is just a simple power cord that plugs into the wall and the radio. Wasn't expecting a massive power transformer that sits outside the radio. Too bad about the adapter. [.].
I paid @70 before taxes and I'm not disappointed. There is not much I can add which wasn't written. This radio called to me when I saw it, and yes, I was aware of the large power adapter.The sound is warm, and wood is such a relief from plastic casings. You could do a lot worse. big sound for the size, I consider it my poor man's Bose.
I recently purchased this radio for $69.00 at Target. This radio sounds as good and the FM Reception is great making weak stations sound as powerful as strong ones. The sound is wonderful, just as good as the Bose Wave Radio I sent back a few years ago after being dissapointed in its sound quality for the price. Bose should be ashamed. Room filling sound in a great package at a great price. The only complaint is that you cannot run this on regular batteries.
This review is coming from a person who owns mostly NAD Electronics stereos. input and tested all of them available at Target. I was in search for a table top radio with an Ipod aux. I liked this radio so much I bought two for my house and am thinking about buying two more. The Crosley, surprising to me, had the best sound without question. The bass and treble are very natural and smooth. Absolutely love it. My only wish is that they would have a few more colors like the Tivoli Audio stock.
