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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
