You can also choose to wake to AM/FM radio or with the Humane wake-up system (HWS) buzzer alarms. The HWS buzzer is a gradual alarm feature that gently raises the alarm volume, so it's not too jarring or abrupt. There's also a snooze button for those that like to grab a few extra minutes of sleep in the morning before facing the day. In addition, the PR-D18 can be set as a sleep timer from 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, to 120 minutes, so you can fall asleep to the radio listening to your favorite talk or music stations. The PR-D18 is a feature-laden yet extremely affordable radio that not only looks good, but packs a powerful sounding punch for its size. Like all Sangean products, tone is well balanced and excellent for both talk and music, making the PR-D18 a leader in its class.

Review: Very pleased with the radio for my mother with early dementia. Good reception and sound. Programmed all five station buttons to her favourite station, and the on/off button is a different colour than the rest. The only minor problem is that the 'lock' switch on the back also locks the on/off button where I would prefer it to only lock band, station and volume. Still very pleased with it.
Review: I recently purchased this radio and overall, it has its pros and cons. Pros ✅ • Compact and portable design • Easy to use with a simple interface • Good sound quality for its size Cons ❌ • The AC adapter is not included and it uses an old-style adapter instead of a USB type • Limited features—no USB, Bluetooth, or additional modern functions • Primarily battery-operated with no built-in battery charging capability Final Verdict This is a classic-style radio with a digital LCD display. While it offers decent sound quality and a straightforward user experience, it lacks modern features and charging convenience. Ideal for those who prefer a traditional radio experience.

*by J***S on 27 July 2016*

Recibí el radio en buenas condiciones y en un tiempo bastante rápido, pero es una pena que no llegó completo según como lo publica el vendedor (No traía los auriculares tal como lo dice en las características), Es muy buen radio, se siente bien al tacto y funciona excelente, muy buen audio sin distorcion con todo el volumen, muy buena respuesta a los mandos de los botones, bastante sonido considerando el tamaño del radio, excelente compra, muy buenas prestaciones por el precio, lo recomiendo ampliamente. Es un pequeño radio especial para tener y escuchar en lugares cerrados con muy poco volumen, y también para portarlo en el estadio y escuchar la narración del juego con un volumen bastante aceptable... Amazon, ojalá puedan reponerme el auricular que describe en la publicación...
