VQ Dexter Portable DAB Radio Mains Powered & Battery Operated - Rechargeable Bluetooth Radio Battery Powered (Built-in) - DAB+ Radio Alarm Clocks for Heavy Sleepers - Oak

The radio is attractive, not too big and has good sound quality. It made a perfect gift.It needs to be switched off correctly if you wish the batteries to last.

I was pleased when I unpacked my new radio, it s cute (small) pretty (so it could go in bedroom...lounge,)It s easy to use with biggish buttons and knob.this would be a great radio to take out and about, perhaps when having a picnic and it s so compact, would fit in your handbag/holdallJust one thing I found it only works when placed on my window cills or outside in my garden when having a coffee.....if I place this anywhere else in my home it does not pick up a signal...nevermind

Good sound from a small radio and on the Dab stations I have used holds the signal very well using the small extendable aerial. Useful small LCD information screen. Unfortunately no bluetooth, but then again not offered with such. Overall very pleased.

Stylish look, nice sized portable radio for indoor/outdoor use. Chose Laura Ashley design for clarity of buttons, being visually challenged. Great sound and a super amount of DAB radio stations to choose from. Easy basic set-up, but I found it difficult to do the pre-sets, I felt the instructions were not detailed enough, but at least I could read them. I preserved with the set-up routine, but it took me ages, and I managed because I already own another DAB radio, so I had a little knowledge. Anyway, I don’t really know why I bothered with the pre-set tuning because I only listen to two or three radio stations, which are easy to find. I would suggest if you are not techno minded to skip the pre-set tuning (took me 2 hours) and just find the radio station/s you like, and listen and enjoy. I found switching off the radio easy and all the other radio functions, just not the setting up of the pre-sets. All in all a super portable radio and I definitely recommend. Good value. Thank you.

This is a pretty addition to my bedroom. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have a radio alarm function, which was my original reason for buying ( it came up in a search but..my fault for not checking in enough detail).Easy to change channels etc...I haven’t bothered presetting as they are all there.I don’t like having the mini usb for the Electricity input, it doesn’t feel as if it goes in far enough sometimes, which may be why the batteries seem to get drained really quickly...I have been thru’ two sets in less than two months and that has been only using it on battery an odd time when moving between rooms or outside. Also, others have mentioned the annoying button situation to switch it off...not only do you have to press twice to switch off, but also it has to be at a certain pressure, otherwise it just changes the mode from DAB to FM or whatever, instead of switching it off.Overall, the sound is good and it is attractive, but I probably wouldn’t buy it again.

This radio is a must buy. Sound quality is excellent, very pretty design, easy to use. If you are unsure on how to use any part of it there is a booklet explaining everything very well.I've been through a lot of radios that were either tinny sounding or complicated to use but this is perfect. Buy it you won't regret it.

Excellent compact dab radio. Good sound quality, easy to programme, easy to change stations. Buttons are not big but everything is in proportion to its size. Well worth the money.

awful background noise/HUM on DAB broadcast ( planet rock ) .tried a reset/retune , but still the same . aerial worked loose after a short time . eats through re-chargeable AA . only had this radio a few weeks , and it is rubbish !.
