Title: Disappointing Performance in spite of great ratings
Product review: I bought this radio after reading several reviews. I was looking for an Portable FM radio that would pick up NPR stations in a fringe area. The reviews said this radio would pull in signals that other radios could not get. Based on this information, I bought one of these radios and was extremely disappointed. It had no better reception than any of the offbrand radios I had purchased before. The sound was somewhat "tinny" and the best thing I could say about it is that it is very light. A few days after I got this radio, I found a much older Sony Walkman at a garage sale for 50 cents, that out performs this radio hands down. Don't waste your money expecting this to do any better job than any other 15 dollar radio. It's "impressive" reviews are all hype......
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
