I was astonished at the size. The tuning is a large wheel and is not one of those that is either dead on station or not at all but a smooth easy operation. The tone is excellent. It really is a trip back in time, It looks great and sounds even better. Exactly what I have been hoping to obtain.

Love this radio. Great, retro styling. Looks just like the one my Nanna had when I was young. Sound is excellent. Love the retro controls; the volume knob is also the ‘off’ switch. Lovely, old fashioned click when you turn it off – magic!! Tuning dial is easy to zero in on your chosen station. No pre-set for radio stations – but what the heck. Gives your memory a well needed work-out in this digital, ‘don't need to remember anything’ age. Ah – nostalgia. The one surprise is that it's quite a lot bigger than it looks in the photo. Not a problem for me, but you may want to check the dimensions if you have a small place in mind for it. It would certainly dominate a bedside table!!

For those wanting a manually tuned AM / FM radio this performs well and looks the part. Good value for money.
