5 out of 5 stars Excellent product   June 25, 2008
Hubby wanted a DAB radio - neither of us are technophobes, but which product do you choose if you don't want to spend the rest of your life working out how to use it!? Assessing reviews and considering the cost of the product, I chose this one. Really pleased - very user friendly and excellent reception. So good, I've just bought another 2 (as pressies)!



3 out of 5 stars Easy to use but poor sound   May 30, 2008
Far from the 'great sound' mentioned by other reviewers, I find the sound lacking totally in treble. It's a muddy sound with no real clarity.

This is a shame as the radio works extremely well.



4 out of 5 stars Excellent Radio pity about the battery life and poor after service from Pure   May 16, 2008

Well made radio with good quality sound. To claim that this radio will run for 35 hours on 6 size C batteries is completely untrue. You will be lucky to get 2to 3 hours.It does however run well off the mains.

I hope you never have to contact the Pure technical department for help or advice because you will not get it and this despite the promises made on their website. I shall think twice in future before buying their products again.



4 out of 5 stars It's a Dad Radio that works.   May 9, 2008
Dab radio and FM radio.
It's not overloaded with functions, is quite lightweight, but does a good job at playing the music.
You won't get thunderous bass, but you get a well-balanced sound with enough bass and high end for a very decent sound.
Bear in mind that this unit's battery is 28 - half the price of the radio itself.
I would probably think more about portability and batteries next time I purchase a DAB radio.
If you don't need the battery/portable aspect, great. If it's worth radio cost plus battery cost, then I'm not quite as certain.
Overall, it is a very nice unit - just wish the battery was cheaper.



5 out of 5 stars Simple to set up and use and robust.   May 1, 2008
If you're looking for a cheap, reliable radio with good sound quality then you've found it.

I bought this for my wife to use during her maternity leave. I wanted something so simple that even a dunce like me could set it up and robust enough to survive the attention of our two-year-old daughter.

This has done the job superbly. It took a few minutes to set up and has survived being grabbed and dropped by grubby fingers and we've had no problems with it.
