Sony ICF-S79V Weather Band Shower Radio

I've had this radio for a year now and it works perfectly. I've used it almost everyday and have only replaced the batteries once. The sound quality is superb with very little distortion if you crank up the volume. It's surprising just how loud this radio gets. Splurge a little and get a quality product. Don't waste your money on the cheap ones.

We have four of these little gadgets and all of them still work. However, the plastic flex panel buttons only last about one year. You can still use the buttons but it's hard on the fingers. ALSO starting Jan2009 the TV stations on this unit will cease to function.

I can't believe I never had a radio in the shower before. Trying to live without it now would be like driving without a radio.

The ability to pick up TV stations is a huge plus too.

This is without a double the 'best' shower radio I have ever owned. The reception is crisp and clear and I love the pre-programmable stations. It is also a very attractive radio and so when not in the shower with me, it looks nice sitting on my bathroom counter. It's very user friendly; no complicated directions. Perfect for us 50+ technically challenged. I would definitely recommend this product to everyone.

This is a great radio for the bathroom. I'm still on the original bat. Love this radio.
