Title: works fine at first but breaks
Product review: At first this seemed better than most CD clock radios: the display was maybe a little dim but fine at night, the speakers sounded pretty good and radio reception was fine. The lack of a tuning dial or display (the unit scans upwards from the low-frequency end of the FM spectrum one station at a time) was fine for us as we only listen to the "left-hand" stations. But within a few months the "set minute" button broke, requiring us to remove it and stick a pen in the hole to set the alarm or clock. Then the clock started running fast on occasion. And now the CD player no longer recognises that there's a disc inside -- it doesn't play at all. So now in less than a year our CD alarm clock radio is basically a displayless FM radio and CD storage holder.
