Crosley CR3036D-CL Tribute Vintage AM/FM Bluetooth Radio, Charcoal

I love this little speaker so much, I've bought it four times! (Two for gifts.) We use the radio and the bluetooth setting, bring it outside for picnics, and link it to our projector for movie nights. The sound is so much better than a phone speaker.

Very good sound and reception.

I really like my Crosley Tribute Vintage Radio. It is compact, the sound is high quality and I like the modern silhouette. I selected the white sand because it matches any decor. Also, I own another Crosley radio which I have on my desk at work. It is an AM/FM plug-in radio with a retro Mid Century design. I receive many compliments on the style and sound.

You have to plug this in to charge it (rechargeable battery), but the battery charge lasts a long time. It is so small, like the size of a can of beans, but vintage looking. The sound is fine considering its size. It is simple to use: one dial for volume, one for tuning. This is well built and we expect it will last for awhile.

Husband loved it, also nice you can just charge it and carry it around.

Right out of the box the unit would drop Bluetooth connection after about 30 seconds (the AM/FM radio worked fine). I contacted Crosley and sent my unit in for repair, which took about 3 weeks. After finally getting my unit back, it was completely dead (which I expected). However, when I tried to charge it, the charger wouldn’t go all the way into the charging port, making it impossible to charge the radio :( I had no issue with charging prior to sending the radio in for repair. Now I’m bummed out because I basically just have a radio-shaped paperweight and I’m past my return window. I really regret this purchase. I’ve contacted Crosley again and will update this review according to their response.

Purchased for my husband bathroom and he loves it. Sounds nice.

I stayed at an Airbnb that had one of these in the kitchen. I took a photo of it so I could look it up when I got home. It was perfect for the room, you could turn it on really low and soft first thing in the morning and not bother others but could have coffee and listen to the local stations. I had to have one for my art room. it is perfect, and I didn't even realize it was Bluetooth connectable which was another plus. I just use it as a radio, it's cute and perfect for what I want it for. I gave a 4 for sound quality just because it's just "sound" kind of tinny, no rich tone of any kind, it's definitely just like a transistor radio. Still OK, it's just not a 5 in sound quality. If you have a small little space where you sometimes want ambient soft nosie/music, it's perfect!! (And cute!).
