WOOD magazine review

Small "single-serving" radio

Review Summary

Although it’s the smallest unit (and easiest to carry) with a handy mp3 pocket on the back, it has only one speaker and lacks the sound quality of most others. And it runs only on an 18-volt battery—no electric cord. It just doesn't have what it takes to create sound for a jobsite; better suited to a small shop.
