I be not one to write review , but I be so surprised to see the flowery review by the editor , I be prompt to comment . the overall design of this product may seem stylish , but not free from glithe and error . the radio reception be very weak . the only way I get clear station be if I be touch the antenna . the station scanning also do not work great - it be actually annoying because it stop on any static station , even if you press-and-hold scan . also beware - if you have the sound soother on and accidentally press a radio preset , you will wipe out all of you preset when switch back to the radio . another problem - it eat battery like crazy , so you have to spring for the ac power adapter . as for the sound soother , it seem to work and help I sleep , but not all of the sound make sense , but I guess everyone be different . I generally like the rain , Thunderstorm , Summer Night , or City sound . I do have the single speaker model as well , and it do have good sound quality . the rest of this unit 's feature be so lack , though , so it be really hard to justify the expense just for a sound soother .
