Customer Reviews


I don't have a freaking clue who made this strange toy...
It's okay. You need some patience with this gadget. It's quirky. Audio is okay, not quite mediocre for what it is. The instructions are incomprehensible. Right out of the box, the unit needs to be charged for 3 hours via USB, BEFORE you use it. And don't turn it on until AFTER you've disconnected the USB. Mine now has a slight burn in pattern on the display because I turned it on while still connected to the USB. It still works, though. I wouldn't bother with the alarm (or the clock, on 24 hr. time) unless you have a way to keep it powered 24/7. The thing runs for about 2-3 hours, then it needs to be charged again, another 3 hours via usb. The remote is junky, but necessary. Don't lose it or leave it in your jeans on laundry day. If you lose the remote, the unit is one notch above worthless. With the remote, it's two notches on the same scale. Using the remote is the only way you can tune in stations without it going into scan mode. Once again, the instructions are hopeless. You cannot preset stations, although, it looks like it's supposed to be able to do so. Perhaps someone can enlighten me on how to do it. I've tried applying the instructions, but the information is so poorly written (And missing details) that it doesn't work. I've learned that it's good for line in (IPODS, CD player) and getting a few local stations. The on/off switch is a tiny button in the back. The remote on/off turns off the radio, but leaves on the lighted dial. (A nightlight, perhaps?) The unit is small enough for travel, and cheap enough that if some TSA jerk removes it from your luggage for their shopping convenience, you won't cry very hard. I would rather lose this thing over something nice.
Nice concept, bad execution.
--Right after I delivered this review, I plugged the USB cord for my Apple Ipod right into the front of the unit where the USB connection is located. Immediately, the same said unit ran out of juice (we're talking seconds), so it's back to a three hour charge. Ipod is ok. USB in front of machine is merely for decoration, I suppose. I'll see if the gadget works after I recharge the battery. If not, no great loss. I'm beginning to think that this thing is something I should give to the Makerfaire people just so they can do something interesting with it, like incorporate it into a robot..
Is there any point to this device?

A total piece of crap! they should be ashamed selling it. Sounds good for the 5 minutes the battery lasts, speakers on the side of unit are just props, it has no ac adapter so when it stops playing you are without sounds till the crappy battery is charged. do not order if I could do negative 5 I would. Its in the garbage and I lost 20 something bucks.
