I bought this radio because of the reputation behind the brand. Great worked great until the power switch failed. Apparently the switch (knob) will not respond. At first it would not turn off. Now it’s off it will not turn on. According to reviews and posts it’s an issue across the board Every power tool I own is Dewalt. This is the one that I enjoyed most and has let me down. Every other Dewalt device is top notch. I wish I could say the same for my radio.

Disappointed!
This is the second radio that has had the same issue. It is a nice radio when it works and normally I would recommend Dewalt tools to everyone but this radio like my last one will not shut off. If it is going down the same path as my last one soon I wont be able to turn it on. This radio sits in my barn 90% of the time, the other 10% it sits on my side by side while I check on fences and tend to the animals. I wish y'all would get the bugs worked out of it.

Disappointing radio
The radio was great until it wasn't. It lasted about two years and then crapped out. The radio doesn't stay on and at times will just come on without pushing the power button. I had it on in the garage today for about 30 seconds and then it shut down. A product like this should last MUCH longer than it has.

Barely used and buttons stopped working
Would Not RecommendBought this about 9-10 months ago, all the buttons stopped working except the power/volume. This was used in my garage and never moved from its spot since I got it. It's a piece of garbage. Save your money unless you want a 200$ chock block. Dewalt won't get a penny of my business again.

Trash.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ll just get straight to the point: (1) this radio will not charge your Dewalt batteries. The battery connection is to power the radio. (2) playing IG or FB videos will cut the volume out unless you toggle the volume up and down on the phone. (3) when the power cord is connected, you can charge your phone with the usb port. With the battery connected, the radio has to be turned on for the usb port to activate. (4) no cable storage. (5) the LED...

Underwhelmed
Disappointed with this radio compared to my old Makita. Not weather proof, plug in can only be inserted when battery is removed, sound is just ok. Off/on switch is also the volume and is easily bumped on or off accidentally. LCD display is too bright if using off site plus I like having a time display. Finally, what is the aux option for? Who uses this?

Great Radio!
Would RecommendI love the radio and the ability to play through Bluetooth. The ability to use a Dewalt battery makes it even better however, I would've liked the ability to charge batteries.
