What Others Say
Sony Under Cabinet radio
Pleasently suprised at the quality of this item. Speakers are out front so the sound is better than others I have tried. Would like it a little more streamlined or thinner but it still looks good under the cabinet.
underwhelming
Having been loyal to Sony products in the past I decided to take the plunge and spend a bit more than I intended to on a radio for my kitchen. However, when I installed the device I realized that the lack of an antena and the inability to move the radio in order to get better reception basically made it useless...it was like a white noise generator. No dice. I think that this would have been far more successful if the radio was installed closer to a window (I'm not sure). I do not recommend Sony ICF-CD523 Under-Cabinet CD Clock Radio.
Good value
After looking around I realized that I couldn't find anything thiner that was afordable, looked and was made by a company like Sony. The first one I bought developed a problem with the CD player after 3 or 4 years. I bought another one and loved the fact that the holes in the cabinet still matched. My son fixed the first one and I now use it at our vacation house.
What we were looking for!
Well, so far, we really like this item! Like another reviewer wrote, there is some static with a few of the radio stations, but I think that can be expected with any radio. (plus, it's not with our fav station, so that's ok!) and the main reason we bought this is for the CD player.
We wanted an undercabinet CD player in our kitchen for convenience and this is near perfect. My hubby installed it, so I can't give my feedback on that, but I don't think it was too hard. The speakers are great and there are some nice features to it: changing the clock from regular time to daylight savings is just a push of a button, CD has an auto-shut off if you have it on pause for too long, etc.

This unit is under estimated. It sound quality is exceptional and is price right. The install is a little clumsey , but overall a grea buy.
