4 out of 5 stars Brilliant and only slightly flawed   August 4, 2008

Having purchased two PURE products in the last year - first the Evoke-1 and now this, the PURE One - my experience has been similar on both occasions. br / br /The PURE product deserves the majority opinion - quality build and performance with a typically great sound and resonance. The designs are boldly traditional and make the units easy to manipulate and enjoy straight out of the box. br / br /Just one gripe...quality control. The Evoke-1 took three attempts at receiving a satisfactory unit that at first didn't work at all and then arrived scratched or pot-marked. The PURE One arrived with what is arguably a plastic casing vulnerable to scratches and unintentional markings. br / br /So then, an unusual case of eminent value spoiled by the test and delivery.


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. br / br /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

br / 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. br / br / 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. br /It's not overloaded with functions, is quite lightweight, but does a good job at playing the music. br /You won't get thunderous bass, but you get a well-balanced sound with enough bass and high end for a very decent sound. br /Bear in mind that this unit's battery is 28 - half the price of the radio itself. br /I would probably think more about portability and batteries next time I purchase a DAB radio. br /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. br /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. br / br /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. br / br /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. br /
