Works effortlessly//1
Would RecommendHad this radio for years. It just keeps playing my favorites on and on. Hardly touches the battery for drain when on that. So convenient to be able to also plug it in. Connects to all bluetooth devices effortlessly. Good Sound Quality with volume controlled by the radio as well as my phone.

Worked okay for a while
