Customer Reviews of Conair SR11 Shower Radio, Blue

Customer Review: Third time's the charm...(or so I thought)
Summary: 1 Stars

Pros: Small footprint, easy to operate and place in shower, adequate volume
Cons: quality control issues (had to exchange twice)

I bought this at BB&B as a replacement for a nicer shower radio that broke, because it was the cheapest alternative. I initially was impressed because I found lots of places where it would hang nicely in my shower and because it was easy to turn on and off, tune the dial, and adjust the volume even while showering. However, a day or two after I bought it the AM/FM switch stopped working properly, such that I could only tune to FM stations by jamming the switch as hard as I could to the FM side--which broke it straightaway. I exchanged it and the switch worked fine on the second one, but try as I might I could not tune in to the station I wanted to listen to (nothing but static). As another reviewer suggested, I opened it up and shoved some aluminum foil around the antenna in various configurations with no change in the reception. So I exchanged it again, and the third one works perfectly--no problems with the AM/FM switch and great reception. I have two sets of four rechargeable AAA batteries (Rayovac Hybrid - Battery 4 x AAA NiMH and the new Rayovac Platinums, which are both low self-discharge NiMHs) and swap them out about once a month.

The bottom line is that this is a very nice shower radio--if you get a good one. It's quite obvious that Conair is suffering from some pretty serious quality control issues; but then again, the price would probably be higher if they put more effort into it.

UPDATE: The switch on my third one is now starting to malfunction (it doesn't "stick" properly, so I have to push it multiple times to get it to turn on). Having three in a row with problems from the start, or developing problems very early, shows an utter lack of quality control. I can no longer recommend this shower radio, even at its bargain basement price.
