I have had one of these radios for some time now. Good quality and sound (for its size) and so I decided to purchase another for another room. I think that it replaces the XDR-S40DBP which has a smaller speaker and therefore smaller frequency range (less bass). Easy to set up and use, the 5 station pre-sets are situated at the top of the case as is the on/off button and circular volume switch. Battery life is good; how long does it last on 4 AA cells? Depends of course on use and volume level, but I am more than pleased with battery life. It is a DAB/FM radio with 5 pre-sets on each channel which I find enough. Maximum volume level is 30 on the scale but this gives some distortion. If you want loud volume levels buy another radio! Comes in black or white (generally cheaper for some reason). A great small radio and I love it. With any DAB radio, it either works perfectly or not very well at all. Positioned properly it should work in most environments even with the aerial down.

Does what a DAB radio should do (and so many of them don't with the signal strength we have around here). My only criticism is that the 'sleep' setting isn't persistent and has to be reset each time it is used. It would be nice just to press a button and get a preset sleep interval to an automatic switch-off. Instead one has to select a menu, find 'sleep' and select a time interval. This might bother you if you like to listen when you wake up in the middle of the night, as all that fiddling about tends to wake you up. But overall, no complaints at all, and I'd recommend it to anyone.

Great portable Radio it is a little more expensive than other radios of this size, but well worth the extra as had to return other radios which were cheaper due to the sound and tuning was poor. Really easy to set up, have bought 2 more to place in other rooms.

Needed a new radio for kitchen as the Roberts one was useless. Had a Sony portable years ago that was brilliant so thought I would try again, chose one that specifically did FM as have never been able to have a DAB signal, to my amazement it automatically tuned in to DAB, excellent sound, easy to use and to have DAB as well couldn't wish for better. Plus a really good price
