I originally purchased two of these radios from a local retailer but took them back because I found them impossibly difficult to program. Still wanting a combination CD player/radio, though, I looked on the GPX website and found an updated version. I'm sorry to say, they're going back, too. The appearance has been updated, but programming is still impossible to figure out -- particularly with one small page of "instructions" that's less than helpful. In addition, there is only an FM radio in the unit -- no AM! Combining a CD player with an AM/FM clock radio is a great idea. Unfortunately, GPX hasn't been able to pull it off.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Dear customer, we're sorry to hear that you aren't happy with this unit's lack of AM and difficult instructions. Unfortunately, this is the only model we currently offer that has a CD option as well. If we can assist you with anything else, we'd be happy to help at 1-888-999-4215 or prodinfo@dpiinc.com. We hope to be able to help and hope you won't count us out just yet.
All features are acceptable and easy to use. Speaker quality was not that good for music.

I like that it’s compact. The sound quality is what I’d expect from a clock radio. I’m finding the alarm function impossible to set with the instructions included! It would be helpful to know how to tell if you’ve gotten radio vs buzzer vs CD right. I’m going to keep working on it, but wouldn’t recommend

This is a very poor set up to program!!! It is very difficult to know what you are doing even with the instructions. There is no button to just play cd to listen to it. What is with the mp3? I want to listen to music cd that I bought. It is difficult to set alarm and go back to check the time and mode that was set.
Nice black clock-radio with cd player from GPX, is what I was looking for this Christmas. Smaller than an old boom box I once had and portable. It allows me to take it just about anywhere. It's a must have if you like music the way it was meant to be listen to.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this product a few weeks ago and I love it. One thing I would suggest is a blue light not red also the color could be a little less bright.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought a smaller CD player but I wear glasses and it was hard to "read" the buttons so I gave it away and bought this one and I LOVE IT!!! I can see it all without even squinting! I am so happy!!!
