until i found a white appliance, i was lost w/out my under cab kitchen radio. thank goodness i was able to locate one. i dont listen to the cd much, but im glad i have the capability. because i haven't gotten a chance to set up the clock, it just blinks at 12:00. from Amazon.com I LOVE IT!!! my hibby installed it no problems and I Literally have it on almost all day long, while I cook, clean, etc. My cd player works just fine and so does the radio (unless of course I have the microwave running, which is right next to it then it gets a little staticy but I think thats normal)...basically I love this and would recommend this esp for the great price!!! from Amazon.com I liked the way it looked and sounded in her kitchen and decided that I wanted one for me. Its a nice unit that is easy to use and has 15 pre-sets for the radio. The slot for the cd holds one cd. The sound is good, not great. from Amazon.com If I were buying this item strictly for the radio, I'd be very satisfied. However, I bought it with the idea of playing CDs in my kitchen while I cook. An excellent idea - if the CD player actually worked! from Amazon.com I put aside my qualms about Sony sound products (my experience is that Sony is great for pictures, but their sound always goes) and bought this machine. For about two months, I revelled in finally being able to play my favorite music while trapped in the kitchen. from Amazon.com

The pluses: It seems very solid and durable, is a no-brainer to operate, and produces relatively high-frequency (if a bit hollow-sounding) fidelity.

Minuses: It's deeper than I'd bargained for. The only under-the-cabinet space that would accommodate it was in a corner. Curiously, Sony's instructions warn against installing it near florescent lighting. (What are you supposed to do--rewire your kitchen?) This may explain why radio reception, while decent, is hardly startling.

from Amazon.com This is a great item! No trouble with installation. Great sound from the radio and also the cd player. Very easy to use! from Amazon.com my cd player works just fine and so does the radio (unless of course i have the microwave running, which is right next to it then it gets a little staticy but i think thats normal)...basically i love from Amazon.com i installed this product in my kitchen last night. from Amazon.com i liked the way it looked and sounded in her kitchen and decided that i wanted one for me. from Amazon.com
