Zadro ISING FM Shower Radio, Green

It's a "bug"... It's a clock... ...It's Uber-Crap!!.......2007-09-13

I have had this for over a year but haven't gotten much use out of the radio. I have exchanged it more than once because some the first couple I got never worked to begin with. The radio (at very best) gets a very, very, poor reception. I did notice that at times when I put new batteries in it the radio would work slightly better, but not for long. Finally, I decided to put it in my laundry room and use it as a clock only. I recormend getting this shower clock/radio because it has worked much better for me: Fog-Free Mirror with AM/FM Radio & Digital Clock in White.

Worst Radio Ever.......2007-07-23

This is just a bad design for this type of product. No Display of what station you are on, only button to tune station is next button. It says AM/FM but no way to tell or switch from AM to FM. Little Sucker Feet only work for a short time. Usually radio is at the bottom of the shower every morning. Takes AAA batteries, but require a really small phillips screwdriver to install them. Bad reception even when it is tuned to station. Spend a little more to get a product that works.

I only wish I could rate this with negative stars........2007-06-18

It's had to imagine a product doing its advertised task any worse. You can't see what station is tuned in, it wanders from station to station, the buttons are hard to push, and the reception is awful. The folks who sell this must be fresh out of snake oil.

Currently, it no longer tunes in any stations. I'm just waiting for my Sony to arrive.

At least the clock works.

dont buy it.......2007-04-05

if i was able to rate this item with negative stars, i would have. once you turn the bug off, you have to find the station you listened to all over again. the reception is terrible. the suction cups dont suck to the wall. basically its a piece. dont waste your money!

Terrible reception. Tinny speaker. Radio does not "remember" last used station when turned off. Don't waste your money.

garbage.......2006-10-16

dont buy this. got it and its totally worthless. one of the worst purchases i have ever made. not worth a cent.

Gives industrial design a bad name........2006-10-11

It's sad to see a product that is so seductive to the eyes, reveal itself as impractical and inefficient when it's actually in use.

It's a fact that the radio receives only the strongest signals, and it is unfortunate that many high design retailers still offer this sham of a radio.

. . . the colors are pretty

Static.......2006-08-14

After receiving the radio as a gift we were disappointed to find that it only recieves the strongest of signals and we're unable to tune in to the stations we want.

Don't waste your $$ on this one........2007-03-04

I purchased one of these (not via Amazon) and had to return it.

It had absolutely no reception (just static). I tried both rechargeable batteries and regular batteries. The static was louder with the regular batteries, but still no reception. The price may seem like a great deal, but if the item doesn't function as designed, then it's just a waste of money.

**Oh... in the interest of full disclosure - the one that I purchased was white and green, not blue.

Three and a half stars.......2007-03-02

Really thought the cute little ring on the front would control the volume or frequency--but it's just a design kick--the iPod look. It is a cute radio. Does everything it's supposed to. Reception is strong, although if I keep it on there is sometimes a little interference from moving around the room which can be corrected with small shift of the dial. Sound is mono only--it's very lightweight. Overall a fine buy.

Poor design - avoid.......2007-02-19

I had a moderately performing shower radio and decided to replace it with something better. This one was fairly low cost, so I thought it might be a good risk. It wasn't.

* The sound quality is terrible -- very tinny sounding. I get better audio through the telephone.

* The antenna is extremely sensitive to movement around it. Since it's designed as a shower radio, you are generally right next to it and moving, causing the signal to go from loud to scratchy to soft to loud again.

* The dials cannot be easily tuned with wet fingers.

In short -- this is a poor radio, and it's a TERRIBLE shower radio. I regret buying this and I'm going back to using my old one. Avoid this one.

Product Description

Want a high performance new flat panel TV that "does it all"? Need a choice of screen sizes to suit your different needs? Samsung's new 45 series of LCD TV's is the place to start. These beautiful new sleek designs, available in 15", 17" and 20" standard aspect ratio sizes start at under 2.4" thick (without stand) and contain Samsung's latest LCD panel technology. It all starts with picture quality, and these sets boast improved contrast, brightness and off-angle viewing. Add to that the flexibility of a PC input, integrated NTSC stereo TV tuner and a unique base that doubles as a wall mount and you've got both performance and value..

Amazon.com Product Description

Stylish and versatile, Samsung's 640 x 480-resolution LT-P2045 LCD television stands at merely 3 inches thick (without its stand). The 20-inch screen produces vivid, high-contrast images while occupying a minimum of space in your office, living room, bedroom, or kitchen. Its wide, 160-degree viewing angles make sure everyone has a great view, even when the unit is mounted on a wall. In addition, the set connects to a personal computer through its RGB (15-pin D-Sub) input, letting you surf the web, check e-mail, or play QuickTime movies right on your television.

Perfect for use with a digital cable, a satellite receiver, or a progressive-scan DVD player, the set is configured in a standard, 4:3 aspect ratio and accepts both standard-definition 480i and enhanced-definition 480p signals. A built-in NTSC stereo tuner is configured to receive the standard 181 channels. And with its lightning-quick 16 ms response time, high 500:1 contrast ratio, impressive 450 cd/m2 brightness rating, and onboard digital comb filter (which separates the color signals to minimize dot crawl and blurred edges), the set renders sharp, focused images that look great regardless of their source.

LCD screens offer a number of benefits over CRT monitors and televisions, including general ease of use, freedom from eye strain (no screen flickering or radiation emissions), quiet operation (no high-pitch "flyback" noise, an issue with CRT TVs), accurate image geometry (no curvature distortion or susceptibility to magnetic interference from, say, speakers), long screen life (with no risk of image burn-in), space savings, and light weight/easy positioning. They also tend to be cheaper and, to some eyes, slightly more natural looking than their plasma flat-panel counterparts, which usually "spec" higher (higher brightness, higher contrast ratio).

The LT-P2045 makes flexibility a top priority, giving you several preset picture and sound modes (and custom settings for each) as well as a handy swivel base that doubles as a tilting wall mount--no additional accessories required. The TV also permits color temperature adjustment for warm, cool, or neutral tones, along with a trilingual onscreen menu. Additional features include sleep and on timers, V-Chip parental control, closed captioning, and an auto volume leveler to minimize jarring level differences between, say, programs and their commercials.

Choose one of several preset sound modes (standard, music, movie, speech, and custom) for broadcast through the built-in 3-watts-per-channel x 2 speaker system. The television's MTS multichannel decoding separates audio signals for stereo reception and broadcasts a second audio program (SAP) when available for multilingual or other applications.

To connect the monitor to devices such as DTV set-top boxes, satellite receivers, DVD players, game consoles, or camcorders, use the set's component-video input (480i/480p), S-video input, composite-video input, RF input, and the above-mentioned PC input, each with its attendant audio inputs.

What's in the Box
.TV, dual-purpose stand/wall mount (tilt-swivel), a remote control, remote batteries, a user's manual, an AC power cord, and warranty information.

One of the best so far for LCD TV.......2007-01-02

This LCD TV is awesome have a multiple and reliable use compare to just LCD itself and the price. I recommended this product especially if you love downloading big files or doing some office work and suddenly got bored, all you need to do is change the source and there you go instant TV with 180 channels to choose from.

Not horrible for the price I paid........2006-06-27

Well, when i first connected it, I thought, eh, but then i thought, damn, I paid 235 dollars for this 20 inch television with a 4 year replacement warranty on it. So thats not so bad. Its not horrible but much like the other user review stated, you have to be a couple of feet away from it. Its a perfect offering for someone with a small bedroom that wants a good cable feed or something similar.

Be prepared to be disappointed.......2005-10-30

I was sure hoping for a lot more!

The PC input was the first thing that attracted me to this unit. I thought, Hey, I could use this as a second monitor and switch over to watch TV when needed. What could be better? Plus, this was an open-box unit that I got for hundreds less than the retail price so I snatched it up thinking, How bad could it be? Well to quote Elaine on Seinfeld, "Oh, it be!"

The picture quality is the real issue (sound isn't an issue because you can always use computer speakers to improve that). In order to make viewing even tolerable you need to place it about 6 feet away from your eyeballs. So that makes using it as a computer monitor a useless proposition. Move it closer and the fuzziness will drive you crazy.

Basically, it's a product that would have been quite acceptable 5 years ago, but with today's technology it's really disappointing. So here's a word of advice: Don't do what I did - buy on impulse. Instead, head out to your local electronics store and make sure you're totally satisfied with the picture quality before purchasing. If purchasing a unit with PC input, plug in a laptop and make sure you're happy with the image. Once you find the model you like, head back to the Web and shop wisely. Not following my own advice has probably cost me more than $100 in shipping return costs. Good luck!
