The LED light is really really bright.
We put this in our bedroom to charge the iPOD. The LED is so bright that we have to put a towel to cover the top. Besides the light, it works really well. The sound is good too.
good looks, mediocre sound
It looks great and it sounds okay for very basic listening (considering the price). However, (1) the sound is rather mediocre, (2) the EQ button doesn't do much, (3) when you connect the ipod it starts playing, but a moment later it gets into 'charging' mode and stops playing. You need to push the start button again. Small thing, but annoying. (4) it is always on 'standby.' It doesn't have an "off" switch. Again, a small thing, but... (5) when on standby or playing, it has fairly strong blue light on which some people could enjoy, but it could be also annoying.
Great Price, Great Sound - AND it has a REMOTE!
My old iPod dock I used outside in the summer died. I spent quite a bit of time looking for a not to expensive replacement with a remote. Needless to say, they are hard to find.
When I saw this had good ratings and a remote, I bought one right away. I got it today and played it for over two hours straight now and LOVE IT!
Pros:
1. Great price (my old cost me -60)
2. Great sound (better than my older, expensive one)
3. Nice design (hey even has a clock!)
4. REMOTE!!!! Which by the way does anything and everything you can imagine - shuffle, skip to a new playlist, repeat, play, pause, turn on/off, play video, volume, etc. etc. (old one skipped songs, and did volume, pause, and mute)
Cons:
1. It's a bit bulky/heavy - my old one was small and light with a built in handle, this has NO handle, so you have to put it in a tote bag to carry it outside, hey no biggy, just be careful.
2. Cannot play it on batteries, you HAVE to plug it in. This means stringing an extension cord out to my deck and rigging it so no one trips over it but eh, not like I have some super duper landscaped yard and deck that a long orange cord is gonna ruin.
3. Can't see the clock really but again, I have a clock on my deck, I have clocks all over my house, not really necessary.
Overall, I give it 5 stars because it has a great sound (did I mention equalizers - cool!), great price, does what I need and I can ignore the minor annoyances. Anyway, it's worth it just for that remote, LOL.
Highly recommend this for someone looking for something decent for around the house or outside and you don't want to spend a fortune. Did I mention, it has a remote?!
great sound
We bought this dock for my 10 year old son's new I-touch and are really pleased with the sound quality. I did an adequate amount of research on different docking systems and decided on this one because of the low price. It is really a good product for the money.
