Review 3 for Sony - Under-Cabinet CD-R/RW Clock Radio
Good Reception- Sounds fine
Customer Rating

works good - we had trouble getting reception with another cheeper model brand. We'd rather pay a little more for this one and have it work. Getting another one for the mother-in-law who lives down the road.

What's great about it: Easy to use and mount
What's not so great: Sound quality is not the greatest
Very easy to mount and setup. Purchased on sale at best buy. I am able to get all my local radio fm stations but have not tried am. Sound quality is about what I expected for the money, decent but not spectacular. Overall very good product.

Review 6 for Sony - Under-Cabinet CD-R/RW Clock Radio
Quick install, good sound with nice options
Customer Rating
4.0
What's great about it: Options available (CD, MP3, Radio with remote)
What's not so great: Install kit includes extenders that are too small if you have molding under your cabinets.
I did A LOT of research before buying this unit. I am happy with both the price and the quality of the unit. It sounds nice, looks great and has many options BUT it should definitely have more ways to install under a cabinet that has molding or some other type of obstruction that creates a distance of almost 2 inches between the unit and under the cabinet to overcome.
I had to super glue spacers from the old unit to the new ones just to install it; plus, I had to get longer screws.
That said, now that it is installed, it works very well and sounds great too!!

What's great about it: Size, easy install
What's not so great: I couldn't get some of the major Local radio stations!
Easy installation. The size was perfect for my kitchen. Those are the only good aspects of this under-cabinet radio. I was unable to pick-up 3 of our Major Local radio stations. So I returned it the next day. 'Not worth the price.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Review 10 for Sony - Under-Cabinet CD-R/RW Clock Radio
Does a fine job. Audio is adequate, not stunning.
Customer Rating
4.0
What's great about it: Great for kitchen. AM / FM / CD (including CDRW). Has convenient timer for cooking, etc.
What's not so great: Doesn't sound like a top-shelf system, but for background music in the kitchen, who cares?
We had an earlier model like this, but it got zapped by a power surge that took out several electronic devices in our house.
We liked the old one well enough, that I sought to replace it with something similar. This was the newer Sony version of the one that got fried, so I bought it and installed it where the old one had been.
It does a find job of playing radio or CDs. It's not a premium system with tweeters and subwoofer, but it's fine for the kitchen.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Review 11 for Sony - Under-Cabinet CD-R/RW Clock Radio
quality product
Customer Rating
4.0
This radio has great sound for a radio and is very easy to use. We actually bought a second one a year later for my mom because we enjoyed it. It also has a timer which is good for time-outs :) I'd like to see a light under it though. The only reason it got 4 and not 5 stars was because the low battery icon continued to blink whether there was a good battery or not, but the icon is small and easy to ignore. I also like the sleek, thin look, doesn't take up hardly any room.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Review 13 for Sony - Under-Cabinet CD-R/RW Clock Radio
Great unit with good reception and quality sound!
Customer Rating

What's great about it: Price is right for the quality.
What's not so great: Timer function is a bit strange.
Originally purchased one for myself and have loved it. My parents had a cheap version of one of these and they just did a kitchen redo. My dad loves AM radio and their old unit drove us all crazy with static. Purchased this one for Christmas and the look, sound, and most importantly AM reception is much better. Good choice for the $!!!

What's great about it: Value for the money
What's not so great: Doesn't play MP3 encoded discs.
Really cannot complain at all about this unit. It sounds good, and no, it's not a high end audiophile candidate, It is a nice sounding, space saving,easy to use,way easy to install multi-function audio entertainment center. The bass boost helps any thin sounding radio or prerecorded music, and I found programs like talk radio more enjoyable without it. Placed it under a kitchen cabinet, in a corner, and it works great. Reception is not a problem AM or FM. The only surprise was it did not play an .mp3 encoded disc. Other than that, it does the job we intended- good sounding system in the kitchen.

Good product for the price. I use it while I'm cooking or cleaning the kitchen. I also love the ability to plug in my IPad or IPod! The sound isn't top notch like bose etc, but great for its intended use. Overall, if you want a decent affordable product, this is it.
