About this product
The Roberts Play 11 is a portable DAB, DAB and FM RDS radio designed for moving around the house or taking with you. With 20 presets split between 10 DAB and 10 FM slots, you can store stations from Radio 2 to your local and switch between them without menus. The fabric covering gives it a quality feel above plain plastic, and it slips into a bag or sits neatly on a kitchen worktop. It runs on mains power via the included USB-C cable or 4 x AA batteries (not included), so you can unplug it and head to the garden or garage without losing your place in a programme.
The LCD display shows station names clearly with FM RDS, and manual and search tuning let you find stations your way. There's a sleep timer for bedtime listening, auto time update to keep the clock accurate, and a headphone socket for private listening. Auto tune and auto scan set up stations in seconds, and the straightforward menu gives quick access to main functions without an instruction booklet. It's compact, portable and delivers clear DAB reception. Includes a USB-C power cable and a 2-year manufacturer's guarantee.

Customers Say
Compact and stylish Roberts Play 11 radio offers good sound quality, easy setup, and DAB+ reception. Battery life is short; mains power requires separate USB plug. Instructions and preset saving can be challenging.

Disappointing
Bought this radio and returned it the next day as it does not have a mains plug and the batteries we put in only lasted about an hour. When we were able to use it the sound quality was good.

Classic retro design small radio
This is a beautiful radio, the retro style is extremely attractive. The only thing is it runs through batteries very quickly but, if you buy rechargeable ones, it's fine

Its absolutely worth the price!
Bought this a week ago for my mum as a birthday present for her. She wanted a good radio for a while now as all the previous ones from elsewhere didn’t last long or sound muffled. This one so far is absolutely brilliant, great quality on how it looks, shows a display for what radio channels, it does not include battery, but can buy 4 x AA’s if you want it portable, I think you can use rechargeable batteries. Does come included with a USB-C cable (no usb wall socket). It has good reception and no issues with it at all. The price is worth it especially with 2 year warranty. Anyone who needs a decent radio, I would recommend this one, little pricey for £50 for a small little box but worth it if you want a decent radio

Tiny but mighty and DAB plusness
Bought to replace my elderly DAB radio and it picks up all the DAB+ channels crystal clear. Slightly smaller than I'd pictured it in my head from the advert - probably should have looked at measurements! Date and time set themselves on first plug in. Tuning is quick. And the two button turn and press buttons seem really intuitive to save your ten favourite stations. Looks smart too with it's fabric front. Would buy again as a gift.

DAB +
I can't get DAB+ which is why I bought a new radio in the first place. Not sure if it's the radio or the signal around here
DAB plus
Compact portable radio
I bought this for my wife as she loves to listen to the radio. It's a compact unit very lightweight and portable, it comes with a USB power lead and is capable of running off 4 x AA batteries.

Great little radio
I bought this recently and am very happy with it. A great little radio, to have in the shed, kitchen, by the bed.... good quality sound, very easy set up, I like that it can be mains or battery. The only improvement would be if it was rechargeable. Roberts radios are always good quality.
