I was amazed at how small this radio is. I didn't think that it would work for me at all, but I was surprized at just how big it sounds. It has very good sound quality. With your eyes closed, you would swear that this was a much larger unit. The only fault that I could find with it was the low battery life. With a full charge, the battery only last about 4 hrs with the radio on. I looked for a power adaptor that would plug into the cigarette lighter, but Milwaukee doesn't make one. They make a charger that plugs into the lighter, but that just charges the battery. If they made that power adaptor, this radio would get a perfect rating.

This radio is very sturdy and has decent volume. I was concerned that it might not be loud enough. While it doesn't have a huge sound, it's loud enough to play over noises made during home projects. The radio clarity is great with the antenna up, and bass is acceptable for my tastes and standards. M12 battery and plug-in options make it versatile. The handles along the side make it easy to carry or even hang from the ceiling, it would easily survive that fall. I'm curious if the door to the unit will stand the test of time, or whether or not the thin elastic band meant to secure an mp3 player will hold up and not fray. I plan to also use this as an all-weather picnic radio/mp3 player.

I'm a Milwaukee fanatic, and have dozens of their tools, including this and the larger, heavier jobsite radio. Neither will charge a battery, which seems like an oversight. The sound on this one is quite nice, and is made to store an mp3 player safely out of the dust zone. Super light weight, I really like it, although it doesn't have the sonorous sound myJVC RVNB20B Kaboom MP3 CD Boombox has, so bear in mind this won't blare over your chop saw, but does have a rugged, handy, a pretty-darn-good sound quality.
I use this in rugged environments, and then when I'm ready for finish work I haul in the JVC!
The larger jobsite radio is nice, too, and uses different voltage batteries, which is nice, and the batteries last a long time. This one drains the battery quite fast, and especially so using an mp3 player.

Great, strong, clear sound and will fit in large tool bag. However, unit does not charge M12 batteries, nor does it charge the iPod.

Ok I'm gonna be real with this review, i'm not gonna compare this thing to other high doller radios or any of that crap. This is a jobsite radio which i use it for. I could careless that it doesn't charge batteries because its meant to be used on the jobsite where most of the time there is no outlets around or if they are they are being used buy other tools. Yes it does take 3 or 4 aaa batteries, i can't remember, haven't changed them since i got this 3 months ago. They are used for the clock and station presets anyway so no big deal. If you do use at your shop it does come with an ac adapter.
The radio is small which i love but also packs a pretty good punch. Yeah its not as loud as the Bosch but hey its only 1/4 the size so i'm not complaining. The batteries for me have seemed to last around 5 hours which i think is ok. 2 batteries gets me through the workday. The covered mp3 case is very nice since my mp3 player cost more than this radio. To me this thing is great. FM reception is good, loud enough i can hear it where ever i'm working, small-doesn't take up much room in your truck, built very well and for 99 bucks you can't beat it.
