Summary: Lots of sizzle, but no steak
Review: I'm tired of replacing my boomboxes monthly (I do house renovations and always ruin my boxes with plaster and sawdust) so I gave the Wilson a shot.

It's a great design, with the whole sha-bang safe from dust and harm inside it's own gasket-sealed toolbox. The switches and controls are tougher than I thought they would be, too. All in all, it's well-enough made and designed.

EXCEPT for the sound! It sounds so bad, compared to other boom-boxes I've owned. The speakers are at the sides of the box, facing away from each other, and the sound is the worse for it, with all the bass phase cancelled out. And, injury to insult, it doesn't get very loud. I couldn't live with such crummy sound, so had to send it back.

Summary: AWESOME!!!!
Review: This boombox is AWESOME!!!!!! It plays CD, cassetes, and even the radio! It also has an extra spot to store CDs! If you need a new boombox, one that's easy to carry around, I wounldn't recommend anything but this boombox!!!! And you can even get it in colors, instead of boring ol' black or silver!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It's Pretty Neat
Review: This product got my attention when I first saw it at Sharper Image. You won't find it there anymore, probably because it was too expensive. The Jeep Boombox is pretty neat. It has what a usual boombox has, except it's shaped like a box that you can close, which is what really convinced me to buy it.

Pros:

Shaped Like a box for convenience

Has CD Storage of 6 CDs

Can be bought in 3 different colors

Is affordably priced

Cons:

It's very heavy

Takes a lot of batteries (if you even want to take it anywhere)
