I got this radio today to give my dogs some background noise while I'm out of the house, and it only gets a couple of frequencies but it works really well!!

Convenient and Affordable
I was looking for a radio with a headphone jack so that I could listen to my favorite station while I’m at work, and this does the job exactly.

Easy to operate.
Great sound quality and easy to operate. This is the only portable radio I buy for my son. He LOVES it and with fewer buttons, it's easy for him to operate since he is special needs and blind. Great product!! 😊

Will be fine for an extra bedroom.
Seems to work okay. The style is simple, as I prefer.

Good value
A good choice for working on location. Fits into my toolbox and is small enough to keep close.

Great value
For a small Am/Fm radio it has really good tone. Reception is clear and stations are easily picked up.

Great find !
I was looking for a pocket sized AM/FM radio, and after researching multiple products and reviews, I decided on the R055B, and I'm glad I did. I found a great little radio for use while hiking, that has exceptional clarity and power, all at a great price. What a great find !

Bad radio
I bought this radio today to listen to a local radio station on am radio. I wasn't able find the station on the radio. The station dial is so small you can't tell what stations you are scanning.
