I have this product now for 4 weeks. Changed it out in my Silverado Truck for the Original Radio. This Radio rocks. The Features are incredible. The sounds is owesome with the original speakers. My wife even has to to turn down the radio because she can hear the sounds (Frequencies) a lot better than with the original radio. She uses the USB Stick a lot. Easy, small and lots of MP3 music on it. The faceplate is removal and behind the faceplate some one even could use a SD Card, if needed. It plays MP3 from CD and even plays CD-RW. Some of the feature I haven't even used yet. The installation was incredible easy. One little advise for Silverado Truck Owners. Go on the Internet and order a Cable Assembly so you won't loose the Alert signal. I paid $10.00 for this. Well worth it. This radio rocks. Very well done Boss. However, there is one little thing, while no problem for my wife and me, maybe anoying for some others. It might take a second or two longer than normal for the music to start playing from CD or USB stick. However for that price and features I'll take that anytime, no problem for us. There's nothing out there that comes even close to the Boss 822UA price vs. features. I am glad I purchased this one.

Thank you Amazon, I received this unit in a couple of days.

Good radio but not standard size. Width and height are OK but

Depth is over-sized!

Standard DIN depth is 6.25 inches, this unit is over 7.

If you have a limited install depth (as in a dash) be sure

to measure first. To be even safer measure the depth of the

radio you are replacing.

If this unit is deeper then the one you are replacing there

is a good chance this will not fit.

Also watch the thickness if the plastic used for the install

kits. The Scosche stuff is really thin and susceptible to

breaking. AI (American International) seems to make the best.

Good Luck!

All in all very pleased with this radio, very easy to instal using the installation kit and the correct wiring harness. The sound is great, it makes the stock speakers sound like they are a really good aftermarket brand. The only negative is it takes the cd longer to load up then I would have anticipated.

Want Boss 822UA In-Dash Double-Din CD/MP3 Receiver with Front Panel AUX Input, USB, SD Card Discount?

First of these I received from Amazon Warehouse, but all under normal warranty, etc. After paying $60 to install it (and the set of 4 Pioneer speakers in my 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe), I was amazed how it sounds. This radio packs a great deal of features and very decent sound quality into the double-bin box. However, it is made in China, likely without much of a quality control system and it does show it, too... It soon started to trap CD disks and it took sometimes several attempts (button pressing) for it to return them (with a loud noise), then once it simply held one CD forever, even stop reacting to EJECT button.

OK it is under warranty, I thought, isn't it? Well, yes, but no one tells you you've got to shell out about 35% of the original price for it to be repaired or exchanged. BOSS Audio folks made me pay for my own shipping to California ($10) and demanded $20 to ship it back, thus this was extra $30 paid within warranty anyway.

They apparently gave up with repairing it (cheap stuff) and sent me a new one (along with the CD, retrieved safely from the other one, + for them). I hooked it up myself and now it sounds beautifully. Until it breaks...? Well, I hope not, but the CD does not eject right away it takes about three button pressings to get it out. Scary, but so far so good. If it does break, I am not sure I'm going to give BOSS another chance for yet an other 30 bucks...

I enjoy this equippment, though, as it sounds very nicely and has good features (plays mp3 disks, has aux input, USB input beware it accepts maximum 1 GB drives and you may break it if you stick a larger one into it) and decent power (80W). Radio performs well (signal-wise) and sounds great.

If you're lucky then you can have this working for a long time and under $100, but if luck plays the game with you, do not count on the service quality you'd expect from Pioneeer or Sony.

UPDATE at the end of May 2012:

After few months of the new one (replaced) normal use, the unit would not accept CD anymore it would not even take them in, but it automatically ejects them even if partially inserted. Despite good sound quality, therefore, I am decreasing the ratings to 2 stars because of a terrible (Chinese) build quality.

This stereo went into my 2002 Ford Explorer. I replaced the factory stereo. For the money this was a pretty good deal. The stereo works well with my stock speakers. Installation was relatively straightforward. The issues I had were more with Ford than Boss. My best advice is get a wideblade like a 3" putty knife or a vent removal tool, and other tools as you may require to remove covers, and TAKE YOUR TIME. Back to the BOSS: You will need a wiring harness unless you want to do it the hard way. You will need a double din cover, possibly, the one included was not appropriate for the Ford--had to go to the big box store so I could finish the installation same day. That was an additional $24. The display screen is bright, and I mean bright blue. You cannot adjust the brightness. It turns off when the stereo is off and there is no backlight for the clock when the stereo is turned off which seems a little odd to me. The equalizer is very basic but considering the price it is a good deal for an aging vehicle you may not keep for too long.
