Philips USA AE2330/37 Splash-Proof Bathroom AM/FM Radio Review

Philips USA AE2330/37 Splash-Proof Bathroom AM/FM Radio
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
When my awesome Sony shower radio gave out, I couldn't find a replacement, so I bought this at a local electronics store. While it does show the time and the radio works, there is much left to be desired. The minimal amount of buttons on the front means that setting the stations, changing stations, and setting the clock are all far less intuitive than they should be. The reception of the radio is good, but not great compared to the Sony it replaced. The sound is rather tinny and trebly, but not bad for the size of the radio.
All of these sins could be forgiven except for one thing, the battery life is horrible. My Sony shower radio would run for months at a time with daily use on 3 C batteries. With this radio, I'm lucky if I can get two weeks from the AA batteries. I would guess that this is a result of the combination of the smaller sized batteries and the design of the radio itself. Since I use rechargeable batteries, it's not a huge issue, but this radio will get very expensive quickly for those who have to constantly buy replacements.

Jwin Jxm58 Splash Proof Am/Fm Radio With Alarm Clock Review

Yes, it was under $15. But, it is overpriced at that amount. The mirror fogs. The radio won't stay on station. Buy something else.

Zelco Aquatime Rope Clock Review

Zelco Aquatime Rope Clock
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We have had this clock over a year so far. It has worked reliably, while hanging in a shower that gets lots of daily use. I'm sure it has gotten water splashed on it, from various angles. No signs of leakage or rust so far. Good performance for a low price.
Update from August 2010: Still working, after more than 5 years.

Jensen JCR-540 AM/FM Stereo Shower Radio and CD Player with Fog Resistant Mirror (White) Review

Jensen JCR-540 AM/FM Stereo Shower Radio and CD Player with Fog Resistant Mirror (White)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Thanks to the other reviews, I pretty much knew what to expect. My review is a response to the others:
1.I live in an area with iffy radio reception but I've gotten ok reception out of this. The higher frequency stations tuned in really well.
2.The radio audio was generally MUCH louder than the CD audio.
3.When playing classical CDs, the audio is not audible when my shower is on. But for contemporary music, the levels are acceptable but not great.
4.The clock can be changed at any point by HOLDING DOWN the `Time' button while pressing the hours and minutes buttons to adjust the time. You should be able to change the time at will.
5.I was able to change modes and adjust tuner/volume while in the shower and with wet hands.
6.It takes 6 `C' size batteries which ended up costing me $15 (NYC prices) but should hopefully translate to longer lasting power.
7.The anti-fog mirror works.
8.You can put the player on a stand or hang it (both options provided)
I enjoyed mine, perhaps bec. the other reviews set my expectations. Hope my review will help you with your decision.

Atomic Bathroom Digital Alarm Clock With suction cup Review

Atomic Bathroom Digital Alarm Clock With suction cup
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this clock to help keep track of time in the morning, and it works really well. The clock sets itself to the atomic clock signal, which is nice because you don't want to be messing with buttons in a wet environment. Besides the time and date, it shows the day of the week, which is good for those mornings when you are really short on sleep.
The first time I turned it on, it took a few hours to sync with the atomic clock signal. The manual says that it does this at least once a day, usually at night when the radio signal is stronger. The time can be manually set too. But I just waited, and it was on time by sunrise, and has been on time ever since.
I was concerned about whether it would be sufficiently waterproof, but it is built well, and it's been in the shower for a couple months without any water issues. The suction cup also works very well, and it is still sticking to the tile after 2 months. It seems strong enough to survive a good drop, should it ever happen.
Note: To get it to stick to the shower, make sure to clean the tile until it is very smooth (this keeps the vacuum from escaping the suction cup).
Overall, this has made my morning routine much faster, since I don't lose track of time anymore. Very satisfied.

Sangean H201 AM/FM Digital Shower Radio Review

Sangean H201 AM/FM Digital Shower Radio
Average Reviews:

I spent a lot of time reviewing other waterproof shower radios, and this one seemed to have a lot of customer satisfaction. I've been using this radio for about 4 weeks now. Such a big improvement of the previous radio I was using. The sound quality is very good and the signal reception is excellant. I use it in the basement bathroom and even tucked away in the shower in the basement, it manages to pull in the stations I had trouble receiving with the previous radio. Very nice.

Attractive, but very difficult to read button labels to set time or alarm!
Contrary to some tags other reviewers have chosen, it is NOT a shower clock nor is it water-resistant!!!

This died about 12 hours after I received it. By the time I buy batteries, I will have paid too much for what it is. It looks good though and I can read the numbers without my glasses.

Interdesign 61600 SuctionWorks Waterproof Clock Review

Interdesign 61600 SuctionWorks Waterproof Clock
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this clock for my husband for Christmas last year and it has kept time really well (except for the one time the batteries died). It has five suction cups holding it in place which do a decent job, however like all suction cups, they do eventually let go if you don't re-set them every few weeks.
The great thing about this clock is that the outside casing (that covers the back and rim) is a respectable looking clear/translucent rubber like substance that won't dent your tub if/when the clock does fall.
Now if I could just find a fogless mirror with this type of casing I'd be really happy...
