I had this but had to return two as the aerial snapped off both which was disappointing because other than that his was a nice, neat little radio. In the end I paid a little more and got a different radio which I have had one problems with

Just dab not plus. I'd go for the stereo version of this with 2x6w output.

I must have just been very unlucky then for it to happen to me twice

That's how it goes sometimes?. :-(
Such things even happen to me too ...
I bought a few Windows Tablet's last year (it happens).
Nothing wrong with 1 of them for over 1 year!, then BAM!.
As sods law would have it, it's goes pair shape about 13 months or so in?. :-(
So I decided to make use of one of the other Windows Tablet's I'd also bought at the time (1 year earlier), and irony would have it, ONLY 1 month in, that previously yet unused one rather end's up playing up!. :-(
So instead of just the 1 defective Device, I now have 2!!!. :-(
I'm not keep on busting out the third yet unused Windows Tablet as well ...
I'm still deliberating in my head on ways to sort out the 'current ones' first?.
So there you have it ... (whereas prior to all that, they were all perfect!).
So the way I see it is this, at some point in time, or another, we alllll fall foul of such stupid things?. :-(
Can't be helped unfortunately ...

What was the sound like??

The sound wasn't bad to be honest which is why I got the second replacement but after that, I paid about £5 more and got one with a larger speaker on the front of a different model and the sound is a million times better! But of course it is up to you how loud you want it to be capable of :thumbsup:

Also got this exact model in the workshop its ok. Paid a bit less.
However, argos also make a stereo version, and it is just £3 more.

Alba and Bush are Argos owned brands, those will be Argos returns, you'll find plenty for sale on Ebay from various sellers.
A new stereo orange version is the same price from Argos anyway.
