Don't expect any great sound quality, just versatility and convenience. There are so many ways that this can fit in to make life a little easier. So far my favorite is connecting my ipod shuffle to listen to podcasts when I tire of my earbuds. I love it's size and portability. I haven't tried the crank or solar features yet, but for the price, it already fits my needs.
We have had the audio player for a week and used the radio portion in the bathroom. The recharging by winding and solar panels work well. The only complaint is that the on/off switch is part of the volume dial and each time the player is put on the volume needs to be adjusted. And that dial juts only a little bit from the side panel requiring two hand operation to hold, and adjust.
This is a satisfactory product at a reasonable price. The sound quality isn't the best, but it's a convenient way for me to listen to music on my iPod touch without using the ear buds. I like to listen to internet radio in different rooms as I do chores around the house. The audio player allows me to take the iPod with me and set it down on any table near where I am working. The player is compact and easy to use.
