Jensen Under Cabinet PLL Digital AM/FM Clock Radio - JCR-260 from Audiovox. The list price is around US$19.99.
The Jensen JCR-260 under cabinet radio works fine but with some draw backs. The speaker is small and thus sounds small with very little base. The controls for changing AM to FM, changing stations, and going to the pre set memory stations are confusing and take some getting used to. The front LED read out background color is red not blue. The correct measurements are 7"deepx 8 1/2" wide x 1 3/4" thick. For the money the radio works fine and is the only under the counter radio available that I have found that does not have a CD player, which I did not want.

GPX KCCD6815DT Under-Cabinet CD Player with AM/FM/Weatherband Radio from GPX. The list price is around US$79.99.
This seemed to be a great buy. We got it on sale at Target for like $35. However, it had this alarm that came on by default and would start going off all the time. The terrible manual didn't tell how to get it to go off. We finally figured that out, but even with batteries in it, and plugged into a surge protector, it kept resetting itself and that alarm came on by default. We were woken up in the middle of the night and weren't too happy about walking into the kitchen to turn it off. I've never gotten any other GPX product, but don't plan to. Their web site was no help and terrible documentation that came with this product.

GPX KCCD3004DP Under-Cabinet CD Player with AM/FM Tuner from GPX. The list price is around US$69.99.
I ordered this cd player/radio to mount under my kitchen cabinets. The cd player would not open. We had already made holes in the cabinets. They sent me a replacement which was also broken. The cd player will not work. I have been informed that none of them work due to a defect. So I can't take it down and send it back because I have made holes in the cabinets.

Salton Wet Tunes WT50RD Shower Radio (Translucent Red) from Salton. The list price is around US$24.99.
I attended a Cancer relay and one of the gifts given to Cancer Survivors was a "Salton Wet Tunes" shower radio. Turning on the radio took a good 1-2 minutes and if you were not careful, it would turn off. After one week, it would not turn on at all. I know the batteries are good, because the clock works. When, and I use that word very sparingly, it worked the reception was so poor I could hardly hear with the volumn up high. I was extremely dissapointed in the product. I'm happy I didn't purchase the product. Having said that, I'm sure the group that put together the relay will not request that paticuliar product again. One would think a manufacture would donate a product that is workable because, what better "free" advertisment could one get? This advertisment for "Wet Tunes", went south. This product, "Salton Wet Tunes" is in the trash.
I hope no one else purchases one.

Memorex MC1008 Shower CD Radio from Memorex. The list price is around US$99.99.
This unit has died unexplicitly. We have replaced numerous batteries and the unit refuses to work. After reading some of the other reviews (albeit too late), I guess I feel a bit gratified because the unit worked for 68 days instead of just one week. I have made repeated phone calls to customer service and have yet to speak to a person. I am simply told to leave my name and number and someone will contact me. The call has not come. Summary: I regret buying this product (Christmas present for my son) and I will most likely not purchase other Memorex products, even their tapes...this experience has left a sour taste in my mouth.
