great sound and features

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Had good help setting up the return.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Shower radios are either the $10 junk in the bed and bath stores, or the $100 high end models. This was right in the middle of that price range, and is a fantastic product. Being a digital radio, there is no more fussing around trying to dial in that fuzzy station--there are 20 settings for your stations, and all the controls are easy push button. I was amazed to get certain classical music stations that are quite a distance, stations I normally have trouble tuning in. The sound is rich and clear! And I like the 20 minute auto-off feature, so you can just forget about it after you leave the bathroom. Don't hesitate to buy this, it's really well made and hefty--you can use it anywhere. I can't say there's a thing about it I would change. Great Job Sony!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

We love this radio. It's perfect in our tiny bathroom.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

It is one of the best if you do not want to say it is the best among shower radio and any radio. Sony has it all. Actually it is among the best in Sony radios as well.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

this is my second one of these, the first lasted 6 years before i dropped it and it broke.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Love the raised buttons and the fact that you can tell by touch which button you're adjusting. I'm blind without my glasses (which I certainly don't wear in the shower!), and I really appreciate being able to tell whether I'm hitting the timer or the OFF button without having to read labels -- their different sizes, shapes and intuitive placement make it easy to tell what you're doing even with your eyes closed to keep out the soap! I'm totally impressed by the design and quality, and the sound is great, too!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I use this radio in the shower. It replaces another Sony shower radio that I have used for 20 years. I am very pleased with the sound for a shower radio and with the features and usability. If I had to do it over I would buy it again.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

We use this radio daily. The clock and timer are perfect for anyone who gets lost in thought while showering.
Very easy to use and has great sound quality. The movable antenna makes finding stations a breeze.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Researched carefully- excellent reception including AM stations.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I keep this radio in the bathroom. The product is designed to be in this environment and it doesn't disappoint. It's easy to use and has decent sound quality for a battery operated clock/radio.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Easy to set, easy to use, finally a shower radio with decent reception and strong sound. For my money, a best buy.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

The radio isn't sleek looking but it works great and the preset buttons are a nice feature. I'm glad I bought it and enjoy listening to the radio in the bathroom when I'm getting ready for work in the morning.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Bought this as a radio in the bathroom generally just to listen to a news station while going thru my routine. The product does well in that environment

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I am very pleased with my shower radio. I especially love the fact that I can preset stations and just switch stations with just a push of a button. I also love that I can put the radio on a shutoff timer.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I had one of these for 6 years. My radio quit playing but everything else still worked fine. I used it to death. I liked it so much I decided to buy another one for my shower. Great product.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

The radio is totally serving my purpose!! Easy to read LCD, easy to set up. It's just what I wanted in a shower radio.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I was replacing a shower radio by another manufacturer that didn't have a timer and did not have digital tuning.
The timer is great because I can set it to 20 minutes and it shuts itself off before I leave the bathroom in the morning. I listen to the same station on a blaster near the sink and I love that I can hear both when I get out of the shower and not have to go back there to turn the Sony off.
I also like that it has digital tuning so that I never have to guess if the station is tuned in well.
I also like that it runs off of C batteries so that I will not have to change the batteries as often as with AA's.
It could always sound better (more bass) but I wouldn't want the extra size to increase the bass. But I am satisfied with the sound for the shower. And I would always wish it to be less expensive, but I am satisfied with the price.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This is a great product. It's easy to use and the sound is great. It is light to carry anywhere. Mine stands in the kitchen and always listen to the radio while I cook or feed my son. He loves it too.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This radio gets great reception and is easy to use. This is the second one we purchased and would buy again. I have tried less expensive shower radios and they never live up to the quality of the Sony.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Radio for second bathroom.
Easy tuning,Clock in the morning.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Good product though weather band sensitiviy is poor

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I can receive radio stations that I could never receive with my other radio.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

The SONY works great in the bathroom. Dosn't fade in & out like other radio's.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I am very happy with this radio. The sound is good it is easy to use and it comes in handy in other rooms of the house from time to time. I listen to my radio everyday while in the shower not only does it keep me up on the news but it helps me decide what to wear when I hear the weather!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I am so impressed with this radio and the wonderful reception I get in the shower with it. I don't even have to use the antenna to get my local radio station which is so cool, because even my radio on the counter needs an antenna. I had previously bought the lower priced shower radios and as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. And it was absolutely easy to set up-I, being the not-appliance savy person, set up the clock and presets for the radio without having to look at the instructions. I have mine hanging from the shower head, as they supply a rope you can use to hang in the shower, or it has a flat base for use on a flat surface. I am 100% completely satsified a[...]

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I bought my Sony Shower radio about 20 years ago to use in the bathroom and it has been so satisfactory that I just ordered another to use in the kitchen. I researched many other portable radios and didn't like any of them. I feel very fortunate that this item is still being made; I guess that's one sign of how good and reliable it is.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I'm very glad I got it. Thanks for the [...] great price.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

It does everything I need. I especially like the stations that can be preset. The TV function was a nice extra.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

vERY GOOD SOUND AND VERY VERY CLEAR.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This radio has a goofy dangling wire for an FM antenna with a silly suction cup tied to the end. Also the volume control knob is stiff, maybe too tight, thus difficult to turn and poorly shaped for good grip with wet or soapy hands. Band switch should allow direct access rather than scrolling. It makes an annoying scratchy sound when the off button is pushed which seems unrefined...

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I use this in my bathroom, especially while I'm taking a shower and shaving in the morning. It functions exactly as I wanted and needed. I am immensely pleased with it's features and performance. It's easy to program, easy to use and it sounds great, even at the high volume I set it at while in the shower. The radio is quite sensitive in almost any orientation. In short, this radio is precisely what what it should be. BTW: I'm a professional radio engineer, so I know what I'm talking about.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This is typical Sony quality - there are few better.
Excellent features, easy to use, and great reception in a small package.
A welcome addition to a new shower.
My online research said this was the best for 5 years running..............I couldn't agree more!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Great Radio for wet areas/outside.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I bought this as a gift for my husband, who is very particular about his electronics, and he really likes it! It's easy to set, digital and doesn't take up a lot of space. It's a great value for the price.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This is the best shower radio on the market by far and away. I have another in my kitchen and I use a third at work. The quality of Sony is usually good. The quality of this radio is exceptional!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

After 3 dud shower radios, this one works reliably, but cost a bit more than the bargain radios. The others sooner or later had problems with tuning - it became imposible to keep a station, and dialing it while in the shower was difficlut. The radio avoids the problem with film-covered preset buttons so no moiotuer gets in the tuner, and changing stations is imple.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Very nice design on the radio, the instruction manual does not explain setting the TV presets clearly. The presets are set the same as all other presets, so it was not a problem at all.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Great shower radio.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Great Sound and Reception.. Neat Features, Digital, Everything works great.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

works great in the shower

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Have been using this shower radio for 2 weeks and we love it. For such a small unit it has great sound quality (not tinny at all) and very good reception. Am very pleased with this purchase and would highly recommend.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Easy to set up; my 12-yr-old son did it himself. Need to extend antenna for best reception. Weather channel is a nice bonus. We leave it on sink counter as it is water-resistant, not waterproof.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I like the radio for the most part. but disappointed that you can't see the the clock in
the dark or even when you have the light on as much and why is it made that way?

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I Tried a lot of shower radio's but I have to say this is the one to buy.The reception is excellent and it is easy to use. A must for starting your morning without a static radio reception.Buy it you will like it.Sony it says it all!!!!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This was a gift for my daughter. She loves it and says it works great. I left a star off because it has analog TV stations that won't get reception any longer in 2009. My daughter just listens to the radio stations so this doesn't bother her at all.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Easy to set time, stations. Good speaker, clear sound for a portable radio. Nice timer function. Seems to be well made. Picks up TV, Weather band, AM, FM. All work well. Presets on each band.
I really like it.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Great, functional radio all in a water resistant package.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I keep it in my bathroom and listen to it every morning. I have found the time a bit difficult to set properly.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I try to listen to news and traffic while showering and this is a great radio to do that. I live in a brick brownstone and the reception is excellent. The only problem I had was after about 5(?) years the plastic shielding on the buttons wore off and I could no longer change the stations. But it still worked! I'm hoping someone will get me a new one for Christmas. lol

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I keep it in the bathroom, but frequently carry it back and forth from bath to bed to dressing room. Easy to set and switch from AM to FM to TV audio.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Use it every day. Works as advertised. Easy to set. Good Volume. Great Battery Life.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This radio is compact but full of features and delivers big sound.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Preset stations, both A.M. and F.M., are ideal and convenient

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Do not go to the bed and bath stores looking for a quality shower radio. I have owned sonys for years and this model continues the tradition and is the best shower radio on the market.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Very satisfied with radio after about 2 weeks. Very easy to set and move from station to station. Going to buy another for my wife.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Stupid questionnaire cuts off entry of sentence with no warning or guidance. To complete my thought, In 2008 or sooner the (radio) TV channels will not work because of fed-mandated shift of TV signal from analog to digital.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Works anywhere in the home. Garage, shower, basement.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Sony makes great products. The radio being replaced still runs well, but the on/off switch died. The new one has great features for early risers: news, weather, clock that the earlier model didn't have. I hope this one lasts as long as the other.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

It is really a nice shower radio. My last one didn't have programmable stations, so I am really enjoying that feature. The stations come in clearly and it has good sound quality.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This radio is easy to setup and easy to use.
Push-button tuning and large accessible volume knob make it ideal for persons with physical limitations.
Great sound quality and station sensitivity.
Overall, a great product.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

By far the best shower radio I've ever owned. I've gone through several of them that are never reliable when wet, go through batteries in a matter of a few weeks, and have a lifespan of no more than a few months. This one definitely represents its quality name of Sony and has shown me that there is in fact a company capable of making a solid, reliable shower radio. I definitely recommend this to someone who doesn't have the strong desire to play CDs in the shower and would enjoy FM/AM/TV/Weather.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I wanted this partly do listen to morning TV but it will not pick up the NBC station in my area for some reason. Other than that, sound has been great and it seems pretty rugged!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This is the perfect companion for anyone! It keeps you up on the latest news, weather, TV and radio. The timer is also handy when you are trying to rush and make sure that you are on time! This is a product that I would highly recommend!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I bought one of these radios for the shower last year, listen to it just about every day for a half-hour, and I'm still on the original 3 C battery set. The radio sounds very good, not audiophile, but solid bass and good tone for a small radio.

The best thing about it, though, is it's more than a shower radio. I'm buying extras for the garage and the patio.

I also bought one for my 88 year old mother who is in assisted living. She can press the button and have her favorite station play for an hour. She can also move the radio around her apartment easily. The utter simplicity is a very important feature for her.

This is an overall outstanding, quality, functional product.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I searched everywhere to find a TOP QUALITY shower radio, I finally found the SONY ICFS79 [...].This radio has everything you could ask for in a "shower radio". Digital tuning, analog volume, Weather Radio, TV Audio, Timer, AM/FM too! The automatic shutoff timer puts it over the top! Lastly, a great radio that uses "C" batteries instead of short lived "AA". Thanks SONY!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Good sound, easy to use. Works as advertised. Should have purchased 2.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Its a little heavy for hanging over the shower head, but I put it in the window and its great.
I am enjoying it, clear reception and easy to use controls.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This product works very well. You can use it in many situations, including in the shower. The only drawbacks are that it doesn't have an AC plug-in option, and the antenna is a long wire that is somewhat bothersome sometimes.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Great product. Digital settings that don't " drift " off of the station.
Very good sound and easy to program.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Usual SONY quality applies, radio has nice weight and ergonomics, designers took wet, soapy hands into account. Highly recommended!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I love the count-down timer - you can set to 60, 45, 30, 20, etc minutes. Great station presets. Easy volume control even with wet hands. Attractive design. Stands up firmly if you have a shelf or you can hang it from the shower head.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I am the director of a preschool program and I need to know the weather at any given moment, especially in the winter with school closings. The weather band feature is invaluable to me! Plus, the clock works great and the radio is clear and easy to hear in the shower. I love this product!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I'm buying my second radio. I bought the first one when this model first came on the market. The radio buttons finally wore out after many years of daily use. I chose to replace it with the exact model... I don't need a shower CD or MP3 player. I just want to listen to my favorite AM, FM and TV channels.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

If you like to listen to certain radio programs uninterrupted without headphones or earpieces, carry around a small unit with both AM and FM, plus a weather band, with high quality water resistance and durability, this is for you. Love the push-button station control, and on/off.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This thing works great! Large volume range and very good reception.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I have now purchased five of these radios and given several as gifts. They are perfect for anyone who likes to listen to the morning news programs while getting ready in the bathroom. The reception is outstanding, the presets are easy to set and use. having weather instantaneously first thing always helps. Batteries last forever.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

After buying, and returning, other shower radios...finally, this one is a keeper!! Great sound (for what I need) and love the TV channel function. Although, the TV reception only goes up to channel 13 (only one of our local channels lie in that range). I like the coated buttons on top, and that it has a digital readout. Very easy to use. I would absolutely recommend this product.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Great sound. Can actually hear it clearly when shower is on...and I have a hearing problem! Just wish there was a better way to hang on a wall besides the string.

When our pretty good [...] shower radio died of old age, I could find only mediocre reviews online for most other brands ... [...]. Sound is good ... tuning is excellent (though AM is directional, and I listen mostly to talkradio)... controls take a little getting used to, but quickly become intuitive (strangely, all are pushbutton except volume, which is a turn knob) ... all in all, I am very happy with this radio, and I'm betting you will be too.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I wanted a shower radio that had pre-set buttons so I don't need to try to tune in a station while in the shower. This had what I needed. It also has a clock, which I wanted, as well.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

We have purchased this radio many times, fo selves and gifts. I still have the original one and it works Great. The top buttons have worn out, but I have put waterproof band-aids on them and it's fine. We love the fact that it's AM/FM/TV and Weather. This get the best reception of any radio in our house.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

After going through several smaller radios with inferior sound quality, this Sony model sounds great. It is not small enough to put into a pocket, but is still convenient to move from room to room. We don't know how durable it is, yet, but it seems like it will take some knocks.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

My daughter was already taking long showers, now I can't get her out. Glad she has her own bathroom.

This is a great product for the price. Far excedes any other bathroom or shower radio I have seen. [...]. Would definitely buy this radio again [...]

Gave it to my father as a gift, but installed batteries and tried first. Sounds really good. Clear, enough volume, and easily hangs from the showerhead or other.

I have had several readios for morning listening to catch up on the days news etc while getting ready for work and this one is by far the best!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

This is the best radio I've owned. I've now bought three of them.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

A good choice for a shower radio.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I bought this as a gift for my wife, who likes to listen to morning radio while getting ready for the day. This radio has great clarity and she can even listen while in the shower or while using a blow-dryer. It is perfectly suited for use in the bathroom since it doesn't require a power cord and it is compact and quite durable. She loves the portability as well. Originally, I thought that a battery-opertaed radio would be a hinderance, but batteries last a long time.$[...] seemed expensive for a radio since I didn't particularly need the TV/Weatherband features nor did I plan to use it in a shower. It would be nice if Sony ofered an equal quality design in just AM/FM at a lower price.In summary, for the price, you get a compact, durable radio with easy to operate digital controls and GREAT sound that will last a long time.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I had the Sony years ago and replaced with another brand. Got tired of replacing batteries so I purchsed another Sony. It is the best.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Great shower radio. I've had mine since Christmas 2000 and now my eleven year old takes it into her bathroom. What's up w/ that!!!

Well it's Christmas 06 you know what that means.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

The Sony Clock Radio ICFS79 exceeded my expectations. The reception is excellent. I had previous shower radios that got poor reception and faded in and out. This model pulls in stations very clearly.
The cons are the price and that the TV stations only get channels 2 - 13.
Regardless this was a very good purchase.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I've had shower radios from Sharper Image and other places; this is the best radio I've ever had for the shower. I love that I can listen to radio or TV programs while showering and get clear reception!

Multiuse radio indoors and outdoors. Good sound for a battery radio.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Very satisfied. Exactly what I was looking for. I use it in my basement bathroom. Gets good reception and holds up to the humidity

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Great product, could have more features and brighter light but over all great and good nam

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Great little machine. Instead of putting it the shower, I used two suction hooks, and hung it near my sink. Fiddled with the antenna; and I was in business. Terrific value for the money.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

In addition to great reception and sound for a portable radio, what I like best is the 5 presets which allow you to go directly to channels on each band. I love this radio so much that despite the cost [...] I own two!

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

The only drawback is that there was no hook for hanging the radio in the shower included or available (even from Sony directly). Looks good and has good sound quality in our enclosed shower, but that is to be expected as it is a Sony.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Love it. It is very cute and perfect for what I needed it for. Excellent quality.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

best shower radio i've found
[...]

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

The radio has nice features but is designed badly for a shower radio. All the buttons are on top and can't be seen if the radio is hanging from the shower head. It also sticks out so the water runs closer to it than it would if the strap was attached at the sides.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

I actually just bought a back-up one of these in case my old one breaks and Sony stops making them. It has great reception for a shower radio, is a good, compact size, and the batteries last forever. I especially like that it has a timer so you can turn it on for ten or twenty minutes and it will turn itself off. My only quibble is that the white plastic has discolored a little where the sun hits it.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Perfect radio for everyday use.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Overall I am pleased with this product. It gets more reliable reception than other shower radios I have used in the past and the controls are very easy to use and intuitive to program.

Comments about Sony Sony Shower Clock Radio White:

Solid.Great reception. I have eight other radios scattered around the house ranging from $12 to $150.00. The Sony gets THE best reception on AM of all.The functions work easily.I actually carry this radio on my 90 minute walk every day instead of my walkman.
