I have had my Sony shower radio for 5 years and it has the best reception of any radio I have ever owned. It has been dropped nearly 20 times and still works great. I primarily use it under my pillow as a night time radio since it will shut off in  30 or 60 minutes automatically.  I use it in the shower as well but never put it directly in the spray of water.  Light splashes have never affected the performance.  It would have been great if it had an alarm and indiglo but it does not.  The sound quality is excellent for a portable radio and I would highly recommend this product.  The plastic buttons on the top tend to crack after 2 or 3 years but they still work.  This is such a great radio though, I actually bought a spare for when this one stops working.  I have also bought several for friends and they all love them.
