5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Dec-06-2008; Shower radio is multi-purpose; I chose this product because it was top rated for reception, which I wanted because I live in a romote area. It is water proof so I can take it with me outside when I am gardening.; read full review | report as inappropriate

5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Dec-02-2008; Look nowhere else this one's it; I've had this radio for a year now and it works perfectly.

3/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jul-14-2008; Good sound but not long lasting; Just tossed my third Sony shower radio----lasts between one and two years with daily use. Good sound for sure but I'm done with this concept; somehow shower steam and electronics just don't make sense; read full review | report as inappropriate

1/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Aug-02-2008; Lasted about 2 weeks; I put this radio in my bathroom, away from the shower. It worked fine for about 2 weeks. Then one morning, I turned it on and after about 10 minutes it shut off. No matter what I tried, I couldn't get the radio to work. The next day,...; read full review | report as inappropriate
