Only used it twice. Works fine. My old 1970's radio had a heavy metal case and a round dial that allowed for better fine tuning. This is plastic and so light weight I first thought someone had gutted it. But it does tune in and since my favorite stations are towards the end of the wave lengths they are still easy to find. Batter case is maybe a bit too easy to open but has stayed on. Batteries are a bit harder to deal with, but include a ribbon to help dislodge them. Overall I like my old radio better, but this will do for use in the car, yard, and does not require using a cell phone and its radiation. Hoping this thing lasts more than a year. Wish Target allowed for updating reviews.
Great sound and great value

I needed to replace some 10+ years old portable Sony radios and bought the PowerBear Portable radio because the price was right and it has great reviews. I am very pleased with this radio. The sound quality is very good, actually better than my old Sony ones. I highly recommend it. It's a great value for the money too.
If you need a cheap radio this works out.

Everything works nice. I just wish I could set it upright on a flat surface, there are "feet" in the plastic mold but mine its just something to look at nothing functional.
Good little raido

I use this when out fishing in my boat. Picks up more radio stations than my home or vehicle radios. Would buy again. Would be great during power outages. I have used it for 30+ hours so far and on the same set of batteries.

It’s not possible to see what station you are tuned to! The radio is good looking and the sound is not bad, just improve the tuning!

The radio has a decent sound, not the best, not the worse, but it's a cheap radio overall. The plastic casing feels light and brittle, there's no way to remove the wrist strap, and the radio is unable to stand up on its own, causing you to either lay it flat on a surface or prop it up against another object. The only thing it really has going for it is that it looks cool, but there are better pocket radios for just five to ten bucks more than this one costs.

Feeling nostalgic, I bought this transistor radio to listen to the baseball games. There is something about it that brings back great memories. Sound is clear and radio is very lightweight.
Nice little radio

I bought this transistor radio to have on hand in case the power went out. It has a good sound and the batteries last a good mount of time.

The only thing I don't like is the position of the tuning wheel.When you pick up the radio it's easy to touch the wheel and loose the station you are listening to.Also a small fraction of a turn makes a big change in frequency.I like everything else about this radio including the price and batteries used. 2 aa's instead of a 9 volt.

I bought this to replace an older one that lies unused most the time. We have power outages up here in the mountains and this is a backup radio to listen to weather forecasts and the news. All I had done so far is turned on to see if it works and then put it in the blackout kit.
Nice, simple transistor radio. Good value

Easy to use. Decent sound quality, good volume. Batt. life seems very good - I've had this playing 6-10 hrs a day over a 5 day trip and it's still going strong.The only negative aspect so far is that the volume and tuner dials are exactly opposite each other on the sides of the radio, so trying to operate the radio with just one hand almost always nudges the dial you don't want to change.
Great choice
