Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Very noisy CD player Comment: I bought this as an upgrade of the first Pure Chronos CD player which gave up the ghost and I'm sad to say I'm very disappointed with this purchase. As a DAB/Alarm it is fine, but as the CD player it is absolutely dreadful. The CD drive when playing disc has an incredibly loud rattle which is audible from across the other side of the room. You really have to ramp up the volume to drown it out - not ideal when you are trying to drift off to sleep. I've purchased serveral products from the Pure DAB family over the years, but this time I regret choosing their product. Customer Rating: Summary: Chronos CD Series II Comment: I bought this to go in my kitchen. It is very compact and looks good. Reception on the DAB is crystal clear. The only fault I have is a little extra volume would be good, as if the room is a bit bustly the unit is at max. Having said that it is loud enough at max, so to be honest it is perfectly fine. I would recommend this definitely - classy bit of kit. Customer Rating: Summary: Not the quality product I would expect from Pure Comment: This product has all the features that I would like to see on a clock radio, however the product itself does not live up to the high standard I would expect from a make such as Pure and for the price - £90 up. The first thing i noticed was the noisy mechanism of the CD player. The CD can be heard spinning (clicking) and it is clearly not a high quality feature. Secondly, and more annoyingly, the transformer makes a constant ringing/buzzing noise; this actually woke me up at one point - I thought it was someone's car alarm in the distance. Although this might not be a problem in general, for an alarm clock that is designed to go next to your bed it seems a significant flaw. The radio is good and the alarm works well, but considering the other points I was forced to return it. As few alarm clocks with all these features are available on the market, it is a shame that Pure can't sort out these simple problems. Customer Rating: Summary: Chronos cd DAB clock radio Comment: Well bought this to play cd's in the bedroom as well having a Dab clock radio. The alarm setting is too complicated and has failed as we have not set it properly and the cd player is awful as the drive is REALLY noisy when playing at low or reasonable volume levels. The DAB radio is crystal clear however. We cannot use the Mp3 function as the jack plug is not USB, but confusingly the USB socket on the unit is only to power up things???? WHY???? as most players are compatable with this???? So overall I would say if you want a Dab clock radio, buy one,..... If you want a cd player then buy one,.... but not this combined unit. I should have returned it really, but couldn't stand the hassle. Customer Rating: Summary: Great little clock radio Comment: PURE Chronos CD Series II, DAB/FM/CD/MP3 Stereo Clock Radio - White My husband bought this as a present for me to replace a feeble little clock radio I had. The area we live in(rural Ireland)does not enable me to use the DAB function and FM sound quality can also be tricky due to terain. When I initially tried this in the kitchen area of my home I was a little disappointed with the sound quality but when moved upstairs to the bedroom,it functioned perfectly. The setup was very easy and intuitative. Sound quality is great and alarm function of weekday only is great-no need to remember to set it at night. All in all it works well for me. More Reviews
