Comments

Good points: Sony has put a lot of thought into the look of this radio - at least at the front - which is classy with well-integrated buttons and satisfying ratcheted dials.

Drawbacks: Around the back it's ugly grey plastic. The speaker is loud, but the sound it produces lacked a little bass for our liking for a slightly unsatisfying result. It's bulky and lacks a handle, so isn't one you'll want to be carrying from room to room.
