Worked intermittently, did not come with batteries as stated, package looked like it was previously opened. Sound quality was AWFUL; I'm shocked that Craig would even have their name on this cheaply made product. Craig made great car stereos in the '80s and I bought this product due to the brand. The quality isn't even in the same state let alone the same ballpark!

This is the second clock radio I've purchased in one week that had problems. The button needed to set the time only worked once. The time was a minute off and when I went back to fix it the button would no longer work.

I realize the powers that be have decided we are all supposed to use (and only use) our cell phones as alarms, but I can't be the only person who does not want to spend 24/7 attached to a cell phone. I would be nice if manufacturers and retailers actual gave people more than one option in life.

An inexpensive device … not too bad but problems make it unusable for the intended application.

Radio reception is a little weak which is to be expected for an inexpensive unit. I live in the country so more sensitivity would be nice but it works.

The remote is a little funky but if you use it enough you get used to it.

I have not tried the CD player yet. As I recall from the Amazon blurb it is supposed to play CD-Rs and CD-RWs; I had it in my mind that it would play MP3s burned to a CD but what I see in the manual does not look encouraging. TO BE CLEAR, that was an ASSUMBTION on my part and I do not detract from the device because I assumed something not in fact. I am just stating that here to assuage anyone else's misconception.

The speakers are what you would expect on a unit at this price. You can hear them.

My main beef with the unit is the volume control. At level ‘0' you hear nothing (as expected) at the next level, ‘1', there is sufficient volume that I must turn the unit off when I am on the phone. It is not ‘blasting'—it doesn't rattle anything in the room, but there is no volume setting suitable for ‘background music'.

Nothing is ‘so bad' with this unit that I would send it back; On the other hand, nor would I buy it again either. I will swap it for the one I have in the garage that has good volume settings; that one will work fine in my study and this new unit will work fine out there where more volume is appropriate.

Minus one star for lack of radio sensitivity. Minus two stars for the volume issue because that one really is a engineering bungle.

This system continuously shuts itself off. I have tried three seperate outlets and have gotten the same result every time. Absolutely worthless as an "Alarm Clock". Very dissatisfied with this product and would not recomend it to anyone.
