Good Points

Looks good with neat display. (I believe it won an award!)


Bad Points

Very poor build quality.
Worse than average sound quality.
Buttons on front means pushing them pushes the radio away from you without the button responding.


General Comments

The Bush DABCR2003 is quiet a well designed bedside clock radio but severely let down by its build quality. When the third one started switching on and off erratically I gave up with it and a bought a totally different model.

1. After a few months, the first radio failed completely. The clock was fine, but the radio would not come on at all. It was exchanged for free by the retailers (not Amazon).

2. After a short period of time, the internal transformer of the second one buzzed at an unacceptably loud volume all the time. It was was replaced under guarantee

3. The third was fine for about 6 months, but then the radio would not stay on, and switch on and off erratically. The guarantee period had now expired.

If it worked reliably, and more of the buttons were on the top rather than the front, it would be very good.

I have now a DAB radio from another manufacturer.
