I was hesitant to order cause of some bad reviews but I still ordered it cause it’s beautiful. Everything works perfectly the volume I can raise it or lower it to my liking and I can also lower it with my phone while in Bluetooth mode .worth every penny !

I wasn't really impressed with the fact when you have the AC cord plugged in it deadens the AM radio signal but when you unplug it it has a full charge it will pull in signals 1000 plus miles away on AM radio shortwave is a dying medium but what there is for signals out there it seems to pull in a great distance away the audio to me is mediocre but for a portable radio that's about the norm overall it's a decent little radio

This radio has it all. I purchased it to have on hand in a power outage. The internal battery works well.

The only issue is the volume control not being quiet enough. Every other feature is wonderful.

I needed a radio in my garage. I bought a small radio, the sound was terrible. I bought another radio, the sound was terrible. Then I bought this one and couldn't be more pleased with the reception and the sound.

Bought this for my son for Christmas and even though he hasn’t seen it yet I know he will love it. I was really surprised how many stations came in and really loved the blue led light on the dial!! Would definitely recommend this purchase to anyone that loves the retro look!!

I love the look of this radio. I bought it for my office and right away it got lots of comments from my co-workers. I use the regular radio daily, but I've paired it to my phone a couple times too. Very easy to use and a cool, retro feel.
The battery lasts for days. I turn the radio on in the morning when I get to work, and off when I leave. Every couple days I plug it in over night to recharge the battery. I could leave it plugged in all the time, but the radio station I like comes in with better reception if it's unplugged.

I use these radios to play my OTR drives (you can load 1000s of MP3s onto a flash drive, then put the flash drive into the radio.) Although the J-160 has a sleeker designer, this baby is great and it plays right out of the box. The sad thing is that in the area I live SW is dead. The AM/FM bands sounds great. The unit is small, but the speakers are powerful enough that I have them down to barely 10%. My only wish is that it had a random play mode for MP3 USB, but I don't think any similar devices have it. I also want to send it to families overseas and hope they have a version that suits the Japanese FM band.

first, I love that it looks like an old radio, even my kid wants one. Second, uses 3 power sources. Can plug it in, built-in battery (lasts a long time if only using radio), and uses D batteries, I think that's awesome. the ability to use an SD card or USB drive is awesome. I loaded one up with old-time jazz to go along with the look of the radio. I don't love the volume knob, it doesn't play well on very low volumes but it's not the end of the world. I might buy a few as gifts for friends. love this thing. The sound quality has an older radio sound, so it goes with the look.

I love the looks and heft of this radio. At around 3 pounds it feels like a radio should. I wanted this because my Prunus J-15 is my new favorite and this one was just too grogeous to pass up. You get all the modern stuff with a really classy looking and good quality retro build. The lit up blue dial is wonderful. The dial is smooth and even has the old style retro magnifying circle. What a great touch.
The shortwave is suprisingly good. Am or mw and FM bands are excellent. I can get some stations on this that my older more expensive radios cant pull in nearly as clear.
Blue tooth and micro sd work great. I have not tried the USB.
The speaker sounds full and rich. People I have played this for have been surprised with the sound quality. It can certainly produce enough quality sound to fill the room and my ceilings are high....this sounds better than most radios I have.
I have been using the built in recharegable battery. It really cant be accessed unless you take the radio apart...which I wouldnt advise....it has worked perfectly providing several hours on a charge. You could also use 2 D cell batteries or the cord it comes with to plug it in the wall. This radio will not charge D cells though so remove them if you plan to use a.c. current or the built in rechargeable.
SW is my favorite band. It really is perfectly fine on this radio. You will be able to recieve lots of stations if you turn that knob patiently in the evenings. It also picks up WRMI (Miami) and several others fine in daytime. I have some dedicated sw radios that do not pull in daytime sw nearly as clearly as this does. The sw band is 5.9 to 18 MHz. A decent range for a radio that pretty much does everything.
Prunus really makes quality radios that are affordable in my opinion. I love this radio!

This radio has sound so clear that it seems to have been filtered down to nothing. I'd call this a perfect source for music or speech. Communication has finally been perfected. Yes, it's that good and better.
