Great Clock Radio, Horrible Ipod Player

The speakers inside are not shielded against the output of the ipod so as soon as you plug an ipod in you hear a high pitched squeal. After getting fooled by this one I bought the iHome model and have been very happy with it. DON'T BUY THIS RADIO!!

DON'T BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is a piece of junk. I bought one for my son, 1 week later the on/off button stuck and broke. Sent it back, got a new one and on month after the new one came, the radio stopped working and the buttons eventually did as well. So I'm stuck with a non-working, non-returnable piece of junk. I will never buy another Emerson product. I went and bought an iHome product and he loves it, and yes, it still works.

Good for Kitchen or Bedroom and charging your iPod

I got this as a Christmas Gift and have it on now in the kitchen. I think three stars is a fair rating on this item. It's a nice looking item and charges the iPod. However you have to constantly battle the hissing you will be hearing all the time! Especially on a podcast. It sounds good when you have music and the volume is up. You do have to move the iPod around until you have it just right, and even then I can still hear the hissing faintly.

I would say go ahead and spend $20 more and get a much better system you will use more.
