Poor time keeping and nasty aerial The good looks of this radio are spoilt by the scraggy bit of crumpled wire attached to like an afterthought that is meant to serve as an aerial. Apart from looking bad, you will have to find somewhere to attach the loose end of the aerial and it suffers from a poor DAB signal pick-up. Our old cheap and nasty DAB radio that this was meant to stylishly replace gets much better DAB tuning using a regular metal telescopic aerial. But that only sets the scene for the worst part - the clock is totally... more info
Good Sound, Good Looking & great for the environment!
Luckily I bought this product before I read the reviews on this site. I have not had any of the reported problems with it that I have read on here. I can hardly believe that I am reviewing the same product!!! I love the look of this product it looks great on my bedside cabinet.

You can set it to go off daily, weekends only or just once. You can set up to... more info
Nice kit for the bedroom I bought one of these pretty much immediately when it came out from a major high street retailer, and had the high pitched whine problem that occurred when the screen was dimmed by a variable amount.

high pitched noise I have had to return 2 of these because of the high pitched whine, which I see from other reviews was not unique. The first only did it with the radio, the second with all sources including my ipod. I was very, very disappointed as it looks great, has great features, and saves space as no need for separate clock, radio etc.
I chose this model because of the Pure name. It cost £99, never again!
