Best little radio
One reason I bought this radio is because everything i own is black and yellow (Dewalt) lol but also because I was looking for something that plays the radio, has an aux plug in for my outdated ipod, charger for my phone and was wireless. Low and behold Dewalt makes just that and its perfect!! I love how small and compact yet durable it is because I plan on taking it camping as well as use it on job sites and out in my garden. I couldn't be happier with this little radio. Once again Dewalt lives up to their name. 5 ☆'s!

It’s very sturdy and compact, has good clear sound and for the price I hope it’s not a ‘knock off’. So far very happy with it.

Parece que esta bien el producto pero trae sin tapadera esta parte y le puede entrar polvo y demás partículas.
Se descompuso el volumen a los meses y nadie se hace responsable de la garantía.
