Content:
Very nice clock radio. I especially like the dual settings for wake up times and the nap setting. The clock allows choice of which media (AM, FM or CD) and volume to wake up to. Others have expressed concern about the clock being too bright at night but I find it OK for sleeping on the lowest illumination setting - and that is easy to change. It does have a lot of buttons and settings and the first few times I set the alarm time/station/volume I had to look up the instructions. Instruction book is clear and easy to use. On the whole, I am very satisfied with this purchase.

Content: This clock radio was a gift for my wife who was pregnant so that she could listen to "hypno birthing" while in bed. We've always had luck with stylish Sony CD players. However, this time we had a few problems. Within 4 days of coming out of the box, its broken. Not only is there a couple lines missing from the display (a '3' looks like three parallel lines) but something is blown on one of the speakers. It sounds like the kind of distortion you get from putting too high of a pre-amp volume into a secondary amp. its all distorted. Unfortunately, since it was a gift, the box got thrown out. Now we're unable to return it.
If it were 100% working when it arrived, it would still leave something to be desired, since clock radios sound like .. clock radios. I'd love to have some external speaker ports where I can plug in my much larger extra speakers and get a nice sound.
Summary: Good but not good

Content: Just out of the box, this is a first impression. Major complaint: the FM reception on this model is actually worse than the 22-year-old Dream Machine that this unit replaces, even in the Mono mode. Why don't manufacturers include a simple metal telescoping antenna with these units? The pathetic little wire that passes for an antenna in this case won't stay put in your preferred position unless it's attached to something. Note to designer: remarkably, the wire Scotch-taped to our bedroom wall isn't that attractive. Who would have thought? This is a foolish economy on Sony's part. At first I thought I might be getting interference from our portable phone, which sits on the same nightstand and is plugged into the same outlet. So I unplugged the phone, but it made no difference. Decent reception: why is something so easy so hard to get right? Radios are not exactly cutting edge technology, but it seems that decent reception was an afterthought with this unit.
Summary: Why is something so easy so hard?

Content: Have enjoyed using this product for the past two months. My only gripe -- and it's minor -- is the labels on the buttons are too small, and aren't illuminated.
Summary: Highly recommended

Content: I think this is the best CD clock radio out there right now. My children love to play CDs in their room, and I wanted something that functioned both as a clock and a CD player. An added bonus is that it comes with a special cable to attach and play your iPod or other mp3 player. I went through an RCA CD player that died after 2 months and even the Panasonic one I got broke after a few months. I have had this unit for almost 2 years and it works flawlessly and sounds great. Even though Sony is a good name, I haven't had a lot of luck with Sony products in the past, but this one deserves the Sony name.
Summary: Perfect CD Clock Radio
