Don't buy item, (What's this?) I wish I had read reviews before I purchased this item. Radio gets very poor reception, and you have to search to find your station every time you turn off the radio. It's cute, but it doesn't work. If I thought it was worth the effort, I would return it.
JUNK, (What's this?) I really wasted my money on this. Wished I'd read the previous reviews before I brought this worthless item. Sound: Awful, Reception: Worst, and to top it off, it only scans to get the station and you don't know what station it is.
Good enough for the shower..., (What's this?) For an electronic device that hangs in the shower, it does its job well. The speaker is not that wonderful, so fidelity is lost when it is placed far from the listener. It is best heard at a slight angle due to the tiny speaker, but it does its job well enough for a shower. I listen to talk radio, and that has a very peculiar range to hit to sound audible. It does much better with music stations.
Shower Bug!!!, (What's this?) The shower bug is a fun clock/radio for the shower. I got it for my brother who took showers for too long and essentially we ran out of hot water. The thing is easy to put in the shower. The suction cups work well. They have worn out a bit over time and I may have to push them back on more often, but the unit has never fallen.
It is hard/a pain to find radio stations, but for the price you cannot expect a digital dial and functionality offered in other shower clock/radios. Good signal for the radio. Plus the thing is kind of cute!
Great price for a simple product.
do not buy, (What's this?) I got this shower radio and it worked fine for like a WEEK, then it would pick up an stations. not worth it.
Cute, but that's where it ends, I received one of these shower bugs as a gift years ago...I loved how it looked, I thought it was so cute (read: cheesy, sometimes, I love cheesy). :) But, that's not enough to give it a good rating. The radio's digital time was clear, making watching time in the shower quick and easy. The major problem was the radio - the shower bug is primarily a RADIO, so one would expect to be able to use that functionality relatively easy. Not the case!
As other said, the tuner would reset itself to the beginning of the dial when turned off and retuning it to a station was very difficult/time consuming. I lived on the top floor of my apartment building, had a window in my shower, and would get very good radio signals from NYC radio stations in the area on other radios - but the shower bug often wouldn't find the very strong radio station signals. I had a hard time being able to tell if it was on the right station or not, since it wasn't a digital dial (if I remember correctly, the dial didn't even have the station numbers on it) and the radio wouldn't pick up the radio stations at the same strengths as other radios (sometimes a station that had a bad signal on other radios would pick up better on this than a good signaled station). There are two reason this is bad: you might not be able to listen to your favorite radio station every day and you could waste a LOT of time trying to tune the thing every time you use it (which, for me, defeated the purpose of having it as it was to help me keep my time in the shower to a minimum).
Great little clock, (What's this?) This is a really nice little waterproof clock - the metal case is solid and heavy, and the face and hands are bright and very visible - I particularly like the red tips on the hands.
Big pile of poo, As soon as the water hit it, the radio's sound tone changed and never was the same again. Waterproof, my foot. If I could give it negative stars I would.
Works But Many Frustrations, I bought one of these very inexpensively after two far more expensive Sony shower radios died. On the plus side, it did last much longer than the Sony. On the negative side, it is difficult to tune in radio stations, and it doesn't hold the station once tuned in. You have to push one button to move thru the stations and it doesn't display where it was. The only thing which made it tolerable was that the station I used was near the bottom of the dial. The clock wasn't even that good, falling behind over a couple of months. Sound was not great, but good enough for listening to the news while taking a shower.
The antenna came off today and it will need to be replaced. I've decided to try a more expensive one (different from the Sony). If that one doesn't work out, I might consider buying one of these again only because they are inexpensive and it lasted longer than any other shower radios I've had.
