I'm finally having to retire this beloved little radio. It still works if I shake it and smack it in just the right place. It's had soda poured into its speaker, fallen on the floor more times than I can count, and fallen into dep sand. Each time, after some love and attention it would always come back to life. Alas, the power cord won't stay attached with tape after 6 years of use.

This item was packaged so nicely it would make a great gift. I lucked out and the Radio was perfectly tuned to a station I would totally listen to, lol. But while most people might not get that lucky, the sound is clear and it is a nice compact design. It can get really loud too. Highly recommend!

This is the CUTEST little office radio!!!! Excellent noise level and clarity and the backlit frequency dial is precious ❤️

Buy this little Gem!! It’s awesome!
The sound quality will amaze you coming from such a small little thing! No antenna, and no need for one because stations come in great, and we even live in the country. It’s so small and portable and I use it in my car right now as well because my car radio isn’t working! Highly recommend!

Nice overall, but very tinny sound. Has no bass whatsoever. I had a similar Rerii unit for many years and it had surprisingly good bass, but this one not so much. Other than that it’s really good.

I knew I should have just bought this one first! But I also wanted AM and an antenna. LWent through 5 other retro/vintage style portable radios on here but one by one I had to return them for short lived Bluetooth connections or the dial didn’t glow for bluetooth, or portability, which this one has all that. Many of those others I tried were also much more expensive. But I love, love, love that the dial turns blue for bluetooth and orange for FM. The only thing that would make this even better would be an antenna! Otherwise it’s a great lil radio I can travel with that looks great. Don’t know why fm radios get better or worse reception when you’re nearby though.

I was shocked by how small this radio is but the sound quality is *chef's kiss*! This would be a great gift!

It's very cute and sounds nice. I like the simplicity but do wish AM radio was a feature for the important times I'd need it. Smaller than I thought. I looked at a few portable radios for an elder in a care home and must have confused the products. I'll end up keeping this for myself in the kitchen since it takes up so little space but wanted something that didn't require usb for charging.. I thought there was an option for batteries. Maybe I can find a cord adapter to plug in. If anyone knows?! Please reply.

This is cute as a button. A petite little Bluetooth speaker AND FM radio! For the price, the sound quality and product design are impressive. The FM radio works great and is such an AWESOME addition! Portable; and comes with a nice, thick, velvety carrying pouch. I'm excited about this attractive find that will look great with our mid-century home accents.

Absolutely love it. I use this at work and purchased another one for home. These will be family xmas presents

First off, this tiny little radio/bluetooth speaker is absolutely the cutest little thing. I got the cherry and it’s beautiful. I tried the radio first and I immediately found a station; no static or difficulty tuning in. The speaker easily connected to the Bluetooth on my phone. The sound is rich and clear. For a speaker that sits in the palm of your hand, it rivals my larger and more expensive speaker in sound and quality of build. I am so impressed. I absolutely LOVE this little guy.

Perfect sound and great FM reception. Beautiful little radio with excellent Bluetooth reception. Easy to use. I love the vintage look and sound. And added touch to enjoying old time radio shows. You old time radio fans will appreciate this beautiful radio for it's vintage look and sound. It's cost was easy on my budget.
Update: Just listen to the rich sound coming from this tiny box. This little is perfect if you are a fan of Old Time Radio.

When I was at the dentist a few weeks ago, I saw this Bluetooth speaker on the bookshelf and thought it had good sound for such a small speaker. It even has a little wrist strap. Perfect for when I’m in the garden, I can set it on a rock or on the counter. I love the retro look!

I should have paid closer attention to the specs but I was not expecting such a small product. I don't think the product photos show the true size well. However, I love it! The small size is a bonus as it is for a small desk, and this saves space. I was concerned about the quality of sound when I saw the size, but the sound quality is excellent! The dial has an orange glow when turned on. I have only used the radio function, but it picks up stations very well. I would definitely recommend it - fun style and great sound!

I usually don't write reviews, but this radio deserves one! I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box because it's everything I hoped for... Unlike most cheap products out there, there's a tinge of disappointment... But not with this!
The design is wonderful, including the color and the shininess of the gold knobs and dial interface. It feels like a nice quality in the palm of your hand, not cheap. The sound quality is great for its size. I absolutely love that you turn the big dial to change stations, as it should! On other brands, it controls the volume. I love how it lights up when you turn it on. I got this primarily to use to listen to the radio, but I'm excited to try the Bluetooth as well.
I just love looking at it, sitting on my desk. It's really nice to have a nice little gadget to play music that's separate from the phone and computer. Imagine that!
Thanks for making this product.

This little FM radio / speaker is very cute. I'll use it in my laundry room and in my craft room. I actually got 2 colors, white and blue (which is closer to aqua), and couldn't decide which one looked best so I decided to keep both. I use it to play the radio when I leave and my dogs stay in the laundry room. The radio isn't pitch clear, but it reminds me of the old time radios. When using it as a bluetooth speaker it's not like a Bose, but it does the job and it's cute. The dial lights orange in radio mode and blue in bluetooth mode. The dials are very small. It comes with a wrist strap and a USB charging cable.

The reviews were on point! Great, clear sound, even when blasting. The face is orange when radio, and blue when on Bluetooth. I have a Samsung phone, and paired easily. Some people had challenges with the knobs, but I have average sized fingers, and had no issues tuning. It comes with a wrist loop if you want to tote it somewhere. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. You will not regret it. 😊

Sounds really good for such a small thing. I haven’t even turned the volume up as high as it can go yet, but you can definitely crank it up if you want to. Love the Bluetooth capability and the aesthetic of it as well. Very happy with it.

I immediately loved it! Both the radio and Bluetooth sound great 👍
Easy to use ✅
The channels are good ✅
Great sound ✅
Color green is close enough to the color shown here ✅
Now, if you have many electronics in a room, the radio won't work as well, so keep that in mind. They cause interference.

I originally wanted to spend under $20 but the Reviews persuade me to buy this one. because my apartment is so small, I wanted to make sure to get a mall radio that wouldn't take up so much space and be a good quality radio. Not only it is cute visually. but the sound quality for the size that it is, it's amazing! You can turn up the volume really loud and I have not trouble getting signals. As far as the battery goes I'm not quite sure how long they do last without it being plugged in. but I'll probably just have it plugged in all the time while my cat's alone at the house. So he does not feel lonely. Just like any other radio, I think it depends on where you are at to get the best connection. I can honestly say, it does live up to its expectations in person. This Purchase was so worth it and my cat loves his new radio! Thank you so much 💗

*volume in video isn’t at it’s highest*
This thing can fit in the palm of my small-ish hand! I saw the reviews & the volume seemed pretty loud so despite the actual measurements, I was anticipating a decent sized speaker. Then I saw the box & was completely dumbfounded & started doubting the reviewss. I bought it on Prime Day for almost half price, but at this point I wouldn’t mind paying full price for this speaker!
It has bluetooth, radio, AND aux cord. It only comes with the one cord (usb, charging cable, aux cord) but it’s also able to charge while in use which to me is pretty legit.. for anyone wondering. After full charge it DID last around 8-9 hrs like I think the description says so that’s pretty cool too.

First, let me start off by saying this is small, it’s about 3 inches. It includes charging cable and an aux cable it’s two in one, so no multiple wires.
The price: I mean it depends on you if you want to spent 30 dollars on it, but I think it’s a little too much.
Sound quality: well it’s a pretty powerful radio, it can go pretty loud. But, one problem is that if you max out the sound it gets distorted. In all honesty, you don’t even need to make it super loud because it has decent speakers. You might need to max out if you’re throwing a party though, but for a small gathering it will do.
Usage: you don’t even need to read the instructions on this, it is very simple to use, they have color coded signals. Orange for radio, blue for Bluetooth and aux . Dial with numbers changed radio stations ( very very clear sound) left dial for volume and right dial changes from radio ( orange) to Bluetooth and aux ( blue). Also easy to connect to Bluetooth. Also decent battery life.
Overall, for my personal taste, I love this radio, price might be too much, but honestly having that retro look was definitely worth it. I would’ve given it 5 stars if it wasn’t for the distortion, but, it was given for such a small radio. I actually bought two more because it was just so cute.

It’s way smaller than I thought it would be! That aside, it’s very cute and the speaker is great for kitchen listening, it gets nice and loud. The radio works great and all our favorite stations come in perfect.
Had I known it was this tiny I probably wouldn’t have spent this much on it but all in all we really like it and it really is so super cute!

I wanted to love this speaker because it is so freaking adorable but after a couple months of trying, I can't take it anymore because it emits a CONSTANT high-pitched tone when it's turned on, whether in Bluetooth mode or radio mode. I made a video to try to capture this and you can sorta hear it but my phone's microphone doesn't pick it up the ringing as loud as it really is.
It's so distracting it interferes with listening to music, and I honestly wonder if it's giving me tinnitus since I'll now sometimes hear a sudden high-pitched ring in my ears even in a silent room. I don't think it's healthy for me to be listening to the high-pitched ringing noise that's constantly emitting from this speaker any time it's on (and my Bluetooth headphones too, tbh).
So, I'm sorry to say, that's my review. I guess if you already have hearing damage, or bad hearing that omits high-range tones, then this speaker might work for you. But if this is the kind of thing that would bother you, you're probably gonna want to spend your $40 on a different speaker. (Or a cheaper one! This was pricey but I paid for the cute looks. Oh well.)

Terrible quality sound, perhaps mine is defective. Sound goes in and out, can’t listen without crackling in the background weather is the radio or Bluetooth mode.

I was nervous when I saw how small this item really is. But once I turned it on, it sounded 5 times it's size. I had a wireless blue tooth speaker about twice this size, and have put it away in favor of this cutie since the sound is waaay better.
I live in a remote area where it's hard to even pick up FM stations. It picks up stations better than other radios we have. I'm now ordering one in another color to send to my mom's house.
9/21 - I was so in love with this radio for the almost one week I've had it. I turned it on today, and the FM.BT.AUX button all of a sudden stopped working and actually came disconnected. Now it just rotates without working to control anything. I'm sending it back for a similar model that has good reviews. I hope it sounds as good as this one. I'm shedding a tear as I put it back in the box to return. Boo Hoo Hoo!

Smaller than I thought it would be. It has excellent sound for 1 small speaker. So far it works great. I loaded up a micro sd with a library of music and it works great.The knobs are tiny. I would be gentle with them. I haven't used it much yet. It would work great in a small office setting. I bought it as a novelty. The wood is very nice and I am sure adds to the sound quality.It comes with a velvet draw string bag. One of the plastic tassels was broken for the string but no big deal The bag says Potale Vintage Radio on it? I think it is supposed to be Portable Vintage Radio. The voice prompts are in a heavy female Chinese accent, especially when it says input/output mode. I am pleased with it for the most part.

I love this item! The first time using it was a great experience until the battery dies. When I went to charge it, it wouldn't charge. The Bluetooth mode and AUX mode were not acknowledged. I received and email from the company they were just as upset as I was that I was not satisfied with their product. I was asked to send a video of the issues but to do that it had to be charged but the cord/cable supplied was not working to charge the device. So I then plugged into a different cable and IT WORKED!
So long story but I am very happy that I do not have to return my item and so grateful that Fiona was willing to work with me during my issues with this product! I love Vintage Radio.
