I am a contractor for many years. Sound is good not great. Overall good product. So I finally broke down and purchased a job site radio. Happy so far. Radio works great no problems. I have purchased so many regular radios none of which could withstand the work conditions for too long. Have Ipod attachment which works real well.
I was worried at first about purchasing re-conditioned but very happy. Radio is pretty good - out of all the similar style radios this one has best sound. I hope this one lasts for a long time, only time can tell. Denis
I bought this unit based on the opinion of a friend of mine since he owned one. I will not buy another one. I pulled them out and low and behold they shorted out.
Sometimes only two stations. Also several of the cage screws have fallen out somewhere along the way ao I need to get some new ones. I was very displeased with the radio, I can only pick up a few stations.
After getting a price on the part I have decided to make a plate and install regular household GFCI outlets since they are way better than the cheap ones installed by Bosch. The sound is pretty good, not great, but good. The GFCI outlets quit working also.
In a nut shell.overpriced for what it is. Wish I had not purchased this one.
Fix the radio reception and I would give it four stars. I love the cage, it makes the unit easy to carry and hard to destroy.
It had terrible radio reception. I had one of the older versions of this unit.
I have a $10 clock radio that picks up every station I listen to just fine and the Bosch can't tune most of them in. The Bosch rep in my area told me that the new version was much better, so I bought it.
It still gets terrible reception. The sound quality is middle of the road.
I have been very disappointed in the newer Bosch cordless tools, they are getting very cheap.
place the whole thing under the chopsaw stand and u have mission control.i'm not an idiot so i dont play cd's in a dirty environment.if you do the cd player will be junk in weeks.sounds good too. good price.i work in construction filth and radio works fine. i blow it off and try to take care of it.gfi's are a great bonus and my ipod plugs in. charges battery slow but there is lots of room inside charger bay to stash your ipod,cellphone,crack,whatever. so far so good
We are very happy with the purchase. The only reason I didn't give it a 5star is cause turning the channels could be a bit easier, it just takes awhile to get from one end of the band to the other but that does work better once you've programed channels in.
We use it mainly on our pontoon boat since we don't have a built in radio & the other carry radios that we've had in the past got terrible reception & the batteries were dead after each use. I bought this for my husband for father's day & he just loves it.
I would recommend it to others. This radio is perfect.
We use it in the garage when we're not on the boat or it's great for camping &/or tailgating. And I wish it had a place to store CDs but besides those small things, this radio is perfect for our needs.
And I was a bit leary about purchasing a reconditioned radio but it works perfectly & we can't tell that it's not brand new.
