Piece of junk antenna broke off first time we used it
Elizabeth B.
Ordering was easy and it arrived in perfect shape in good time and the radio works great! It is what it was advertised to be.
John B.
Perfect for woodshop where I needed clear reception, big enough speaker with no tinny static, plus the digital tuner. Highly recommend to Radio Shake customers.

Best little radio I ever owned

Nice old style radio. Hopefully will be easy enough for my aging mother to use. Reminds me of the old days. Good clear reception with the antenna.

This radio serves its purpose for me. The sound is surprisingly good for such a small radio. I like the AC/DC feature and how easy it is to program your favorites. The telescoping antenna allows me to get those nearby FM stations as well as some far away. Unfortunately, I do not see the same results with the AM stations. Inserting the C cell batteries will take a little finesse as they are a tight fit. I am pleased with the radio.
Sandra G.
This is a really nicely designed AM/FM radio - I like the telescoping antenna and the battery compartment on the back that also holds the cord, so nothing hangs down. Kudos to the designers.

My husband uses his radio in his garage work room and is thrilled with it and the excellent reception he gets with it! He loves the weather stations he is able to hear and enjoys the radio stations he can listen to. It is so easy to pick up and take to where ever he goes and can be used with batteries or plugged into an outlet if he chooses. It is also a snap to take with him when he is just lounging in the lawn swing, looking out over the town and river below our house. He is one very happy camper! I bought one for my use in the house and love that it is so lightweight I can take it to any room in the house and get great reception in every room. Radio Shack, you have outdone yourselves! Thank you so much for a great quality compact radio.

I was an avid, RADIO SHACK, customer for many years, before moving to, Cedar Rapids.
Shortly after the move, the local, Radio Shack Stores, all closed. I thought that there were no more in the, USA.
When I ran across this radio on the internet, I decided too get one.
We owned at least Four, Radio Shack Radios. (One, a Realistic Chromatic-228, that I purchases in 1980; that is still working today). The reception is fine & the clock keeps excellent time. (48 yrs. old now)
When we received the radio, it was easily set-up, programed and being enjoyed in less than 1/2 hour.
So far, we have had no problems with it. It is easy to get the programed stations quickly, they sound well, and have enough volume too be heard, without distortion, anywhere we've played it.
So far, no problems, (and none are expected).

Best radio I ever bought
you can listen to fm radio
and switch to weather channel without any hassle!!
Susan T.
I bought this radio because it has an antenna that I thought would provide improved reception over my other radio. However, this radio will not even receive the weak channel I want to receive at all. I’m disappointed.
Guye K.
I read the reviews others sent in is the reason I bought it and I think it's great.
Kent H.
Quick shipping! Opened box read through the manual. Loaded new RadioShack batteries and tried it out. The unit works great. We purchased this to keep in our camper for use when away from home. Very happy with the purchase. Thanks RadioShack!
Barry S.
Exactly as represented. Love it !!
Bonnie L.
This radio is compact and pleasant.
RALPH D.
Great sound. Easy to program stations. Great reception.
Christina W.
I was kind of disappointed in this radio. There's only one AM station, and I don't get any of the emergency weather stations.
Cliff C.
Ordered on line, delivered promptly, and works great
CAROL O.
Exactly what we wanted for our hurricane preparation.
Kimberly M.
i love the radio. I have been needing one and saw that radio shack was back in business at least online. I was curious what you had and this seemed useful. IT is. Thanks.
GEORGE L.
Very nice unit, pulls in stations very well as I live in a remote area. Easy to tune, nice sound, WX comes in great. Like AC/battery options. Attractive case with built-in, fold-down handle and compartment to hide AC cord.
Kate H.
I love how it looks, I love how simple it is to navigate and I love how light it is. I love everything about it but the sound which sound like its coming from the bottom of a well. Or inside a box. That part is very disappointing.
Sharon L.
I use it on night stand in my extra bedroom. Sometimes it does not pull in stations clearly sometimes it is OK. It is good for what I need it for and I like the size. Overall, pleased with this purchase.
Richard R.
Better AM reception than others
Which I returned
earl w.
nice radio, just what I was looking for.
Thomasa W.
Hey Guys - I'm sure I will love this. I haven't used it yet. I bought this in case we lose power.
Kristin L.
Handy dandy lovely little radio! Have already used it once, with batteries, during a 24 hr power outage here in CA. I love it!
michael f.
Works great! Nice to have an excellent AM/FM radio with the Weather Channel backup
James E.
Works great just like it says
Douglas M.
It's everything they said it would be. Totally satisfied.
Nels N.
Very good digital radio. Clear sound
David G.
Great little table radio. I use it with the batteries ONLY because there is no AC outlet around . Sounds is good
Terry P.
I’ve purchased two of these radios in the past month. Both replace much older radios. These new ones outperform the old ones by miles. I like that the tuner pulls in stations that I couldn’t get before. The presets make it super convenient to use. The weather channels are a nice addition as well.
I highly recommend this radio.
James B.
This is our 2nd radio of this make and model we really enjoy the versatility of the first one so purchased another to increase that virtue. Once they are programed they stay programed also the weather is a nice feature when working outdoors camping etc. Reception is also quite strong and the batteries last a very long time.
Larry W.
Fantastic shipping speed - got the shipping notice within a couple of hours of the order. My wife found the radio on-line, just what she was looking for & she loves it! Great sound, easy to set up & use. Works well on batteries (a definite requirement) as well as AC power. Just like the Radio Shack we used to shop at!! Thanks!!
Edgar E.
I was looking for a table radio that was clear and digital
Thomas B.
While my primary use is AM radio and the weather channels, I love it. Just the right size, reception and clear sound is excellent. Very easy to preset stations. I couldn't get the auto scan to work, but perhaps I was doing something wrong. Manual station selection was very easy to use, and since I set all of the stations that I want to use in memory, I don't really need to use auto scan. The radio appears to be well made. The future test will be to see how long it last, but so far very very good, especially for the low price.
Mary M.
It's just what I wanted! Can't do this at that big box store!!! Thank you so much. I miss the store in the two towns I frequented!! I was beyond happy to see your ad on FB!! I wanted this for my brother 72 with dementia. If he forgets presets he can turn the dial! Much like the one he had many years ago. Thank you and God bless you! So happy! Quality! #1
Dale D.
Really pleased with the product!! Works exceedingly well.
Cephas H.
It's very
Nice and it came on time
Julia B.
Glad to have you back
James F.
Good receiver and discrimination between channels. Difficult to re-stow AC cord and close back cover. Operation on batteries is good, but frequency display is barely visible compared to AC operation.
RoseAnn C.
This is the second time I purchased this same radio.After a few years the old one didn't work . I love the weather feature & decided to buy again because of the sale .Hope I don't have same problem.
Betty M.
I love it… The sound is awesome and it’s so cute. It’s the perfect size for my basement where I need a little music. And I’m also gonna use it while I garden this summer. We can’t ever have too much music in our life.
Kenneth B.
Fast delivery. Radio performs as advertised.
Grace C.
My order was filled promptly and arrived undamaged. It's even better than I had expected!
Jim K.
Delivery was on time (during a snowstorm) and the product works as advertised.
Thomas K.
The tabletop radio (Catalog №: 1201178) is terrible. It is cheaply made, dim display, lousy tone, chintzy tuning knob. I have owned various RS products in the past and never been disappointed.
I paid $55 including tax and shipping - now I have to pay another shipping fee to return it and I get back $23 less than I paid for this piece of junk.
Never again Radio Shack.
Anne M.
Works well, nice sturdy little unit for a good price. Ordering was simple, and the radio arrived very quickly. Ready for the next power outage!
Steve P.
This is a great radio!
Ben C.
Beautiful sound and easy to use. I love it! We are planning to order another one.
Peter B.
Great reception n clear sound. I will be buying a second one...
Alan C.
I am an Extra Class Amateur Radio operator and I'm quite demanding of any receiver and I also have many Realistic/Radio Shack radios. This is a nice radio that works well. The portability and battery back up during power outages is a great attribute. Rating: A+
Jeff B.
It’s all good it went well thanks
Gary B.
Radio is very nice. Works great. It was delivered in 1 week. Everything they said it was. Great experience!!
Gary S A.
Quick delivery, very happy with radio.
Todd L.
Good Radio, liked the look to start with and it has good sound. Order was quick and easy and got here really quick.
John S.
I got it so fast!! I work in a cubicle and have a hard time picking up some stations with other radios I've tried. But not this one!! So glad I got it. Picks up all the stations I listen too!!!
Paul L.
Its everything I expected and more, and not something thats cheaply made either.
Doloris G.
Terrible terrible static... not sure how to have the stations come in clear... I have tried turning the antenna.. also changed to put it closer to the window... just a lot of static!
Arthur W.
good sounding radio,easy to operate.
Maria K.
Do you guys sell coffee makers?
Eleanor A.
This is such an efficient radio! It is easy to use, and the sound and reception of various stations is excellent. So glad we found this, and glad Radio Shack is back!
Steven B.
Radio just what you wanted...compact and easy to use...weather band worked perfect. Was exactly as advertised. Would’ve hoped that sound quality was a bit better, but considering the price it was ok.
Hays M.
Good to know that a you can still purchase a good "Table Model" radio at a reasonable price.
ted p.
Very clear sound, easy to operate, affordable
Mike G.
GOOD TO HAVE THE WEATHER INFO STATIONS QUICKLY AVAILABLE AS WELL WELL AS OTHER am/ fm STATIONS.
William S.
Good sound a and works great.
Chuck K.
Have not used much since we bought it for when we are on the patio. It is in the house now but we are using satellite radio or TV.
Leonard R.
Delivered within a few days
George B.
Radio is light weight for its size. Feels like thin plastic but still solid enough. Simple to use and sound remarkably good. A good radio that can run on batteries if desired.
Jay A.
It is a nice little radio for the kitchen. Small enough to fit into just about any space with plenty of power. I bought this for my wife so she can listen to NPR Radio or hook it up her tablet to listen to her favorite podcasts while she cooks. She loves it!
Craig M.
I purchased this radio for my 85 YO father and he really likes using it.
Jeff D.
Solid piece; sounds and looks great on the workbench.
ANN M S.
very pleased with it ,good quality,,,,,,good sounding
H. Russell S.
This is a good radio. Mine has a tiny bit of buzz at no volume, but it's not noticeable with sound up. Customer service told me this is normal. Seems sensitive enough. The build could be a little heavier but it's on par with everything I've seen on the market in the last few years. I got it on sale to replace another model from about a decade ago that developed some display anomalies. I think it will last at least as long as my old one. Give it a try! I kind of wish for a version that would include air band and 2m Ham.
Catherine B.
I love Radio Shack. Please come back
Thomas H.
Can catch stations that I really like to listen that were too distant for other radios.
Shirley C.
Love this simple radio, without fancy features that you need to read a user manual to operate. Just turn it on, and out comes my favorite classical music. The display is big and clear, the reception is great, the sound is not bad either. I also use it as an amplifier when streaming with cell phone. Nowadays the phone volume will go down automatically when you plug in an earpiece, even though I am connecting it to a room music system. That totally ruined the music. So I first plug my phone to this radio's Aux outlet in the back, then connect the radio's ear outlet to the music system, and turn the base on as well. The result is surprisingly good. Maybe there are other ways to overcome this "reduced volume" problem, but this way works for me, and I am very happy with it. RadioShack really has quality and practical products with great prices. Thank you!
Dean K.
love the reception and presets
Stephen W.
It's a fine weather radio. I want it only for emergencies where power and cell service is cut. But it seems to do the job just fine and is light weight and well made.
Raul O.
Great sound !! Perfect in my studio !!
Francis Q.
I almost had a breakdown trying to find a way to return this item to you
Mary G.
Stations come in crystal clear . Love the radio !
Anne W.
Great little radio, only "downside" is inability to tone down the backlight on channel display. Too bright for night so have thrown a cloth over it!
Roman S.
Very well designed, easy to use, just the right amount of features, and sounds great! I use it in my workshop, kitchen, and on my desk while I work.
Allen C H.
This was a gift purchase. I previously purchased this radio.
Jennifer P.
great replacement for an old boom box. i love having the weather radio when the storms are coming in.
