Summary: Not Great--But As Good As I've Seen
Review: I've bought several of these the last few years, as I always seem to lose them somewhere, and each time I do--I look for others that are better. So far, I haven't found one.I use it at the gym and running, and it rarely falls off. Radio reception isn't very good, but it was much worse with the most recent Panasonic [RFSW200] I tried while waiting for this one to be in stock again. Another virtue is the ability to tune to a specific frequency [for audio from the gym TV's], as opposed to only certain increments on the Panasonic. Sure it's a bit large for what it's doing--but you can easily reach over and tap the pre-select buttons while running, and it curves around my arm and the velcro works well [although to be fair, Panasonic's strap was actually superior while dealing with a much lighter product], so I can recommend it despite the wish for improvements--including the irritating idea that you have to turn the radio off to even see the time.

Summary: fuzzy sound
Review: it's not only the sound quality thats bad. the arm-strap(that i hated anyway) broke, making my unit crash to the ground. I only get one station now, and the battery shield has fallen out. A good product, for 5 bucks, but you'll have to shell out 10X's that for this one....great deal

Summary: Weak reception
Review: Like one of the reviewers of a similar product from Koss, I live in Seattle. Maybe we're doomed by our hills, but I've had lots of trouble with static using this radio. I like other aspects of it, especially the programmable buttons, although it is too easy to bump the button that switches the band between AM and FM.

Summary: don't waste your money
Review: Lousy reception makes listening very irritating. Plus the too loose volume dial can cause the volume to be painfully loud if it gets accidently knocked.

Summary: Excellent piece of work
Review: My standars aren't that high because this is my first.. But personally, I found this to be one of my best buys ever.. It's light, small and very handy.. The batteries have a long life as well.. The downsides from my expieriences though are: Forget to turn it off, and it runs out of batteries, and the AM stations always fade.. Guy

Summary: Previous model had a stopwatch
Review: Such as it is, the walkman works fine, however the previous model had a stopwatch that was extremely handy to measure my running progress. It was a big disappointment when I opened the package and found that this model does not have the stopwatch feature. For almost $50, you should get more than just a radio. Sony has laid an egg with this product.

Summary: a good investment
Review: This is a great tool for any gym rat. The buttons are convenient to use and the band stays in place comfortably. You do have to tweak the headphone cord on occasion to improve reception, but overall this unit works well. The hold feature is great to keep your station in place and to save battery power when you're not using the radio. The unit holds up to general where and tear well. I've had mine a year and it still works great!It's a good investment for anyone needing a lightweight portable radio.

Summary: super convenient
Review: This is the best walkman I've found for using at the gym. You can velcro it around your arm or wrist while lifting weights or velcro it to the treadmill or stairmaster if you don't like wearing it. Programming stations is easy and there is a hold feature which allows you to stay on a station even if you accidentally bump one of the buttons. The hold button is also useful for keeping the walkman off when it's in your bag so the batteries don't run out. Also, about batteries, they last for quite a while with this walkman. The headphones that are included aren't the most comfortable - that's basically my only complaint. Overall, this product has a great design and wonderful features.

Summary: short life
Review: This radio was OK at first but then it got bumped around at the gym a couple of times and now the headphone jack has a short and it doesn't pick up stations well at all. Also it goes through batteries pretty quickly for a small radio. After about 3 months it's time to buy a new radio.

Summary: better be able to juggle
Review: try running with this, a stopwatch, and maybe a water bottle. It's just not possible, except if they included a stopwatch!
