'Excellent buy; easy to use, clear sound, no problems '
Strengths:
Easy-to-use twist-and-push button for manual tuning and most menu functions.
Clear sound.
No fuss design, available in silver and black.
Weaknesses:
Display is small and could be nicer.
Overall:
The unit is quick to set-up, easy to install and even easier to use. Five programmable station buttons, and five more on the second level (press Shift then station button 1..5 for the second level group).

Reception and sound quality is excellent, but am in strong signal area.

The weakest part is the display without doubt; this is obviously chosen for its low price. 60x20mm blue, backlit. The display serves its purpose perfectly, but a nicer display would be, well, nicer.
