This thing just screams quality. Certainly not the cheapest, but well worth the added cost. There is nothing flimsy here, and nothing that I don't look at as a design engineer with 10+ years of product design experience and say "I'd be proud to have designed that".
A few examples:
The carry handle is stoutly built and works in such a way that you can pass it through a loop, over a hook, etc. When the handle is fully extended the open end reengages with the housing so that both sides support some of the load, this is really nicely done.
Similarly the battery door is held closed by a second swinging latch. You close the battery door, then fold this latch over the free end of the battery door. This latch-action cams the battery door very tightly closed, open it back up and you'll notice a rubber gasket molded around the perimeter of the battery compartment (you won't notice it until you look for it), on the back of the battery door is a matching rib which presses into the rubber when the door is closed. This gives a very robust seal and shows a quality of design and manufacture not usually found on consumer products.
The buttons, screen, speaker, etc. all give the same kind of quality feel. If I sat in a brand new car and saw this kind of quality in the controls, latches, etc. I'd be impressed.
As a radio it does what I want. Reception is better than you'll get from basic hand held stuff. So far if I can pick it up in my vehicle this thing can tune it in inside my house with minimal tweaking of antenna position, nothing else I've tried can pick up some of the weaker stations I want to listen to from inside my house. Most of my experimentation so far has been on the FM band. I've also verified that I can pick up weather broadcasts loud and clear.
I bought this to put in my shower so I don't spend 20+ minutes in there half day-dreaming half asleep and wind up late for work (NOT a morning person). Just having the clock to look at seems to help, and if that's not enough I can set the timer to get my attention. The combination of clock, timer, and radio in a water-proof package is what I was originally looking for, this thing delivers.
A few other features I wasn't expecting:
It has a built-in flashlight on the side near the controls and screen, you wouldn't buy this for a flashlight, but it's nice to have
It also comes with a detachable carry strap and a mounting plate for attaching to the wall. I've not tried either of these but they're their if you want to use them.
It also has a plug for an AC/DC adapter. (3VDC, 0.5A). Radio does not come with said adapter, and honestly I'm expecting 2 D cell batteries to last long enough I don't care, but if you wanted to this thing running all day every day, or hate having batteries, you do have the option to plug it in if you buy a converter.

Only con is really just it's big size... probably the biggest shower radio out there as well.
I highly recommend it though.
