| Bought this expecting a waterproof am/fm radio. This isn't an am/fm radio, it's a fm only radio. Don't know if it's a good fm radio, since the one I got wouldn't tune (change stations). The speaker seemed to work in that it played static. On the plus side Amazon processed my return quickly and with no issues. |

| This had lousy reception, fell off the wall, and it is not easy to tune to a favorite station; you need to cycle through all the stations that you stored first. Glad I was able to get my money back. |

I honestly think one star is being generous for this product, but it is the lowest option available.
This product is total garbage. I got one for both my kids for Christmas this year. They looked cute and came in different colors so we wouldn't be fighting over who had who's radio.
The LED screen only shows time. The radio gets totally crappy reception and you can't even bump the thing once you finally do find a station or you lose it immediately. You have to reset the station every time, too. We even had trouble losing signal by moving where we stood in the shower! Talk about disappointing! It is a really cute concept, but with only a little more attention to detail (even just putting in a manual tuner so you can see what station you are really on) the product MIGHT be worth the 15 bucks. I really stress MIGHT because of the problems staying on channel.
Save your money on this and save up for a better model. We decided to throw these crappy things away and spend 60 bucks and got a really nice shower radio that even plays Cd's, has LED display for stations and CD function and actually holds a station while you move in the shower.
Zadro really blew it with this one. I'll never buy one of their products again. |

| I have had this for over a year but haven't gotten much use out of the radio. I have exchanged it more than once because some the first couple I got never worked to begin with. The radio (at very best) gets a very, very, poor reception. I did notice that at times when I put new batteries in it the radio would work slightly better, but not for long. Finally, I decided to put it in my laundry room and use it as a clock only. I recormend getting this shower clock/radio because it has worked much better for me: Fog-Free Mirror with AM/FM Radio & Digital Clock in White. |

It's had to imagine a product doing its advertised task any worse. You can't see what station is tuned in, it wanders from station to station, the buttons are hard to push, and the reception is awful. The folks who sell this must be fresh out of snake oil.
Currently, it no longer tunes in any stations. I'm just waiting for my Sony to arrive.
At least the clock works. |

| Cheezy as cheezy can be. The only feature I liked was that this item could be returned! The sound was terrible, not easy to tune, flimsy design and the gimmick to have it look like a bug was only cute if you are 10 years old. This thing is junk and not worth the price of the batteries it requires. Mine was promptly returned. |
