Summary: V.P. has a newer model much better
Review: Target has newer modle with an A at the end of it. I love it. It picks up stations my sony SRF-M37 won't{at times). Volume is a little on the low side. I use Koss Porta Pro headphones with mine and the thing sound's excellent. No hiss and it locks into stations very well. I gave it 4 stars not 5 because the buttons are a bit on the small side. Only buy this unit if it is white and has an A after the modle number. I live pretty close to most stations I like, but still the older model couldn't get a good lock on them. Bottom line I'm happy. My advice: Buy and try it. I tried mine right outside the store and used my sony to compare reception. I was satisifed and I think you'll be happy with it also. In my opinion it is better than the Sony and Panasonic models I tried and it is the smallest and best looking unit of this genre. Robert R. in East Hartford, CT. PS: Hope I helped. Please share your opinions too be they positive or negative. Happy shopping.

Summary: Great Looking Piece of ...
Review: The reception is poor. The armband and clip are a joke; the radio could easily slip out. Also notice that the picture does not reveal this poorly designed, afterthought of a feature. Too bad, it's the smallest and best looking radio. ...

Summary: Overall...very disappointing
Review: Well...I've never written a review before but felt compelled to do so after purchasing this product. First and foremost, the packaging/marketing of this product was somewhat deceptive. I thought that the display on this radio was backlit but, in fact, it's not. Instead, it's some weird type of reflective screen which doesn't do much. Anyway, I can overlook that. Perhaps the worst thing about this radio (besides the price, and dismal reception) is the fact that it EATS BATTTERIES LIKE MAD!!!!! Avoid this radio like the plague...especially at this price. Peace.

Summary: Looks are deceiving. It's what's inside that counts.
Review: When my dad and I received these for Christmas, we thought we were getting a super small and light stereo for working in the yard, running, etc. We liked the comfort of the earphones (silcone pads), the station scan feature, presets, TV band, weather band, as well as the lock button. However, we puzzled that we couldn't get many stations, and none really clearly. Without another one to compare, I would have thought it was defective. It's much better to find another radio that has the features you want, and maybe having to buy another set of earphones. I didn't want to get headphones with the headband. (The Virgin ones were on sale at Target, but I don't know if they work better or worse than others.) We took our radios back.

Summary: rip off
Review: Would recommend you avoid this product. Uses up batteries shockingly fast, mine also kept losing its sound even with fresh batteries in place and a display showing full power. Ear phones fell apart and reception was poor.
