Jensen JCR-550 Shower CD Player/Clock Radio with Fog-Free Mirror Reviews
If you don't want to spend that much money, I'd consider trying one of the alternatives in that price range. Neither the tuner, reception, nor the sound was much good, although I must admit that radio reception in my housae can be spotty. I was not expecting Bose quality for the price and location, but I did expect to be able to hear music. It also seemed pretty big and heavy for something so lacking in guts. After this failed, I bought a Sony, which cost about double the price, but seems to be worth it.
First, the reason I bought this was for the CD. Shortly after the warranty ran out, the CD died, leaving the radio as the music source. In a short time, it gets water stained, and becomes totally useless, so if you need a mirror in your shower- don't count on this one. The "fog free mirror" is not a real mirror- it appears to be some kind of plastic coated foil, and is pretty distorted right out of the box.
As other readers mentioned, the volume was pretty low- when it was working.
I was very disappointed, I will shop around for a higher quality product next time. The sound is barely loud enough playing in a quiet room, much less in the shower, or with any kind of water running. For a shower cd/radio player this product is terrible.
You will not regret it. Spend the extra money and get something that lasts a while with better sound quality and volume. To add insult to injury, the player stopped working within 2 months. When the water goes on, i hear nothing. The volume on this radio is diabolical.
I didn't care for this shower radio. I could not get any reception for the FM stations. There were no problems hearing any CD's or AM stations, but the FM stations had too much static.
I bought this for my husband on a lark and was pleasantly surprised. It receives both AM and FM well, has a decent sound and is easy to use and set up. I think this is a great value for the price - the fog free mirror alone would cost $9.99 at some of those big box bath stores. Beware though, you may see an increase in your water bill.
