    Good Points: I like everything about the Pure Elan RV40 radio it this radio Dec07 and am missing not being able to use it see below exceept the back up service


    Bad Points: I was unfortunate to have an accident with the adapter and plug, so ordered a new one from Part masters in July 07 I am still waiting for it despite numerous telephone calls. What do you suggest next as I am getting quite frustrated with the situation as the radio was quite expensive for an elderly person to purchase .I visited Currys yesterday and they just said contact Part masters.

    We bought the Pure Digital Elan as we needed a new clock radio alarm and having listened to DAB radio before, I wanted one of my own. The radio has a small footprint so can sit comfortably on a windowsill or shelf. With the optional battery pack it can also be used in the garden or taken to work.

    The sound quality is very good for such a small lightweight product. It is as good as the top of the range Pure Evoke unit which retails closer to £200, although lacking in bass that the wood e ...

    We bought the Pure Digital Elan DAB digital radio for a friend after being reassured that the quality was the best, but in the North East of England the digital reception for Classic FM is bad, and this model does not allow an external aerial to be connected, therefore it is now collecting dust, and they are back to using FM analogue.

    If you are going to go digital try to get a Pure Digital Elan. The Evoke is superb but still a bit pricey and this is a just as good.

    Bought Pure Digital Elan from Tesco £59.99. Tried for an hour and took back due to a fault. The internal left hand speaker was causing the whole radio casing to vibrate in a most annoying way. Possibly, judging by the other reviews this may be a one off.

    Bought the Pure Digital Elan after I had been looking around for a portable DAB for a while. Wanted a radio that also took batteries, was stereo, and had DAB & FM, this met them all.

    Very easy to set up, plug in and it tunes itself in, very easy to use. No regrets buying it.

    I had been thinking of buying a digital radio for a while, and finally got around to it when opting for the Pure Didital Elan.
    My first purchase was a fergusun from Curry's (£59.99). Took it home and couldn't get a clear signal on DAB or FM, so back it went.
    Went to John Lewis and picked up this one. Other contenders were Sharp and Pure Evoke, but preferred the look of this one and the fact it could also pick up FM. At this stage I didn't know if I was going to get a decent DAB signal af ...
