    Customers say

    Customers praise the radio's clear signal strength on both AM and FM bands, with one noting it picks up FM stations far away with clarity. Moreover, the sound quality receives positive feedback, with one customer highlighting its rich 3-inch speaker, and customers find it easy to program and use. Additionally, the build quality is solid, with one customer noting it can survive bathroom conditions, and the functionality works well in the shower. However, opinions about size and battery life are mixed - while some find it fits perfectly in the shower, others say it's too big, and while some report full battery life, others mention batteries lasting only a month.

    Fantastic, High Quality Radio

    Fantastic, High Quality Radio
    I have bought many things over the year that I probably didn't really need or use. I have to say I absolutely love this thing, and might be a second for my other bathroom. It's my first Sangean radio, and have to say i'm impressed with this brand. Some comments:Pros:1. Really solid build quality. This device is larger than I expected and quite heavy. Plastic housing is thick and seems to be of high quality.2. Excellent sound quality - very full, clear and well-rounded for a single, moderately sized speaker. Not tinny at all. I have my volume on "20" while I'm taking a shower, and it's plenty loud.3. Uses the large "D" cell batteries (2), which at first seems a but off-putting, but they seem to last a long time.4. Buttons are of perfect size and tactile feel; easy to operate.5. Display is clear and shows the clock (when off) and battery life remaining.6. Extendable wire antenna - I live in a city and find it gets my stations clearly without having to extend it, but your experience may differ.7. It looks nice. Has rubber feet so it can sit with no problem on your sink or tub, or you can hang it in your shower with the included strap.Cons:1. The WX Alert button's operation is awkward. It's easily pressed by accident, and to get back to the station you were listening to, you have to press it a second time, press the power button to turn the radio back on, and press the Band button to cycle back to where your preset is. The WX Button and Power button are the same size and both on the front of the radio.2. Rechargeable batteries would be nice - but minor gripe.3. Don't like having to pay extra for an AC to DC power brick.

      Just like other Sangean radios, this Sangean waterproof shower radio was no disappointment. The design of this radio is great. The reception is better than some of my other portable radios. The large speaker provides a rich, clear sound. The use of 2 D-cells provides both substantial volume and long battery life. The layout of the controls and use of the controls all makes good sense. The setup instructions were clear and easy to follow.

      A sleep timer will play the radio for up to 60 minutes before auto shutoff. A nap timer can be set for up to 120 minutes. When that time expires, a tone will gently wake you. The tone starts at a low volume level and gradually increases until you press a button (or 3 minutes have expired, whichever comes first).

      Because this was designed as a shower radio, the FM antenna is a wire that hangs out of the bottom of the radio (but can be stored in a storage compartment). Since this radio is waterproof, I intend to use it outdoors like on picnics where I might encounter rain showers.

      I didn't realize exactly how large it was until I opened the box. Please see the photo which shows it next to a Sony portable radio powered by a 9-volt battery.

      This shower radio is much heavier than I expected, but the hook base that comes with it has stayed in place firmly since purchase (many months). I like the digital tuning and volume, making keeping the signal easy. I'm also impressed that it doesn't drain the batteries as fast as other shower radios I've used. Well worth investing more in a better quality product! I've never used the weather radio, so can't speak to that feature.

      I purchased this shower radio over a year ago (February of 2023, and it is now March of 2024). I use it daily, as does my wife. The batteries last a long time, needing changed rarely. The unit has dropped from a height of about 4 feet several times and still works like new. It picks up FM stations somewhat far with clarity, as well as multiple weather stations. It does not produce symphonic sound, but that is not why I purchased it. The sound quality is not bad, and I am pleased with the purchase. I would buy the product again if need be, or perhaps I will for my kids' bathroom at some point.

      I had a Sony Shower Tunes (?) radio for a ridiculous amount of time - like 20+ years. Worked good, display easy to see, light battery use. Finally it gave up, and I wanted a replacement - the Sangean seemed to be the best option.

      Good: Well-made, actually a tad better sound and reception over the Sony, and seems very sturdy. Easy to set everything.

      Not so good: Display is hard to see due to way it hangs on shower head arm (versus how the Sony hung). Not terrible but numbers (time or station ID) are thin versus the bolder LCD numbers on the Sony.

      This unit cost something like 3x-4x what the Sony unit cost back in late 1990’s. I expect it will last a long time. It fills a void for me but nothing that blows my skirt up.

      4. Buttons are of perfect size and tactile feel; easy to operate.
      5. Display is clear and shows the clock (when off) and battery life remaining.
      6. Extendable wire antenna - I live in a city and find it gets my stations clearly without having to extend it, but your experience may differ.
      7. It looks nice. Has rubber feet so it can sit with no problem on your sink or tub, or you can hang it in your shower with the included strap.

      Cons:
      1. The WX Alert button's operation is awkward. It's easily pressed by accident, and to get back to the station you were listening to, you have to press it a second time, press the power button to turn the radio back on, and press the Band button to cycle back to where your preset is. The WX Button and Power button are the same size and both on the front of the radio.
      2. Rechargeable batteries would be nice - but minor gripe.
      3. Don't like having to pay extra for an AC to DC power brick.

      Fantastic, High Quality Radio

      Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2020
      I have bought many things over the year that I probably didn't really need or use. I have to say I absolutely love this thing, and might be a second for my other bathroom. It's my first Sangean radio, and have to say i'm impressed with this brand. Some comments:

      Pros:
      1. Really solid build quality. This device is larger than I expected and quite heavy. Plastic housing is thick and seems to be of high quality.
      2. Excellent sound quality - very full, clear and well-rounded for a single, moderately sized speaker. Not tinny at all.

      This is hands down, the best shower radio that I've ever had, and I've had several. It's well built, sounds great and the batteries seem to last forever! I've had it about a year and a half and I'm still on the original set, with 2 of 3 bars left! It gets used a lot which makes it even more amazing. Definitely worth the money!

      This is a wonderful battery radio with a strong speaker. The voices coming through are very clear. The sound is nice and soothing. I bought two of these. One in turquoise and another in white for my hubby. His Sangean H205TQ displays the same clear voices and antenna strength as mine. Although it is waterproof, I did not buy them to use in the shower. We have them sitting on a shelf. The way the radio is designed, it doesn't take up much space. It comes with a strap; however, I looped my antenna where the strap would go. The instructions were a tad bit unclear, but after reading them multiple times we were able to set up the stations easily. I live near a major city so I am able to pull in NPR and many other popular radio stations. Haven't heard any static yet. The radios are made in Taiwan, and the Taiwanese put out some great electronics. The Sangean is made of very good quality materials.

      I purchased the Sangean H205 AM/FM Weather Alert Waterproof Shower Radio. I Did a fair amount of research and reading reviews on this product prior to purchase, felt it was a costly Shower Radio. When I received, I was more than satisfied with sound, clarity, easy use of functionality (user friendly). I'm very pleased with this purchase, as I had hoped to be..... I would definitely recommend this product if you want a quality Shower Radio!! I rarely ever write reviews however, find it so very helpful when so many others do. So I felt if necessary to share, as others.

      Received the radio, and managed to set it up quickly with not much issues.

      The product feels bigger than the picture, but feels sturdy as well. The sound quality is great, and goes well with the bathroom's acoustics.

      Uses the BIG Type D batteries. =)

      Excelente Calidad en sus acabados, se siente fuertemente armado, al tacto se percibe una excelente calidad en el material con el que fue construido, es cierto que es más grande que el promedio de un radio AM/FM, pero es un detalle que no tomó en cuenta por la excelente recepción tanto en AM como en FM, lo compare con radios del nivel de ETON, si no los mejora, puedo asegurar que son iguales en recepción, fantástico equipo, y para finalizar cuenta con un Display de muy buen tamaño, ideal para ver a la perfección o la estación o la hora, el reloj resulta muy preciso, lo cual me sorprende al no ser la característica principal del producto, me gustó mucho el temporizador para apagar el radio como para tomar tiempo a cualquier actividad, bien escuchando el radio o cocinando, y por si todo lo anterior fuera poco tiene una función de alarma para funcionar encendiendo en una determinada estación o con un beep, un audio Excepcional, en resumen un Excelente equipo no solo para el baño, para el taller, la cocina, el dormitorio, con una duración Mounstruosa de la batería, estoy pensando adquirir otro para mi cocina

      1. Good quality sound
      2. larger and heavier than expected
      3. Cannot be tuned exactly to AM stations in Australia (tuning close enough provided radio is oriented correctly)
      eg.
      3AW should be 693 Htz closest tuning is 690 Htz
      ABC should be 774 Htz closest tuning is 770 Htz
      Magic should be 1278 Htz closest tuning is 1280 Htz

      Un poco pesado y grande pero hasta ahora ha resultado excelente radio para la regadera, lo tengo en un nicho en la pared y solo sufre salpicaduras; las frecuencias de emergencias no funcionan en Mexico, estas son utiles en USA
