Good sound
I bought this radio a few weeks ago when my expensive radio developed a fault that the manufactures could not fix or want to fix. So buying the expensive option is not always the best option.9

Good sound
This small radio has a good sound (albeit only in mono). Buttons are on the small side. Easy to set up but basic instructions are poor - recommend download full manual from website. A remote control would be nice but the unti would then be more expensive.

Very poor customer service
Nice little radio. Easy to set up and use, what it is let down by is the sound quality. Did not come with Argos advertisement claim of batteries included. Very poor customer service and still didn’t get the batteries.
Dougie, 55 - 64, Perthshire
No use as a battery DAB radio.
Great little radio, but eats expensive batteries when on DAB. only recommended if on FM.

Hard to programme
Nice looking DAB radio and good sound quality. But have to say we found it incredibly confusing to programme Quick Instructions not easy to follow in fact we printed more comprehensive ones off the internet. Decent price for a kitchen radio.
Scouty, 55 - 64, Manchester
Nice looking radio.
I bought this radio because I needed a DAB+ capability. My old DAB radio was only receiving 12 stations. This was the best looking one in my opinion. The sound is fine, the channel selection is good.
