| Review summary | It doesn't get more prosaic than this, but for bedside radio listening the Gemini 19 is a solid performer. Lacklustre styling lets this DAB down, but if you've no interest in style and just want a slumber-stopper for the morning, the Gemini is as effective as any bedside radio Read full review |
A brilliantly designed digital radio that will suit anyone who wants a bit of rock 'n' roll in their kitchen, study or bedroom Read full review |
What a fantastic accomplishment! In these days of conspicuous consumption, the Dualit DAB Kitchen Radio is the Humvee of digital radios. It may not brim with features, but you could drop it off a cliff and it would still be home in time for tea Read full review |
Its unusual looks won't be to everyone's taste and we found the navigation pad unacceptably fiddly, but The Bug is packed with features that bring you the best of digital radio Read full review |
