Nice, but...

I really like this radio. With LXT batteries it will last about two days on a single charge.

Being water resistant, you don't really have to worry about it get caught out in the rain, a nice feature, to be able to listen to tunes, when your running around trying to get everything under cover when those afternoon thunderstorms come rolling in.

This radio sounds very bass heavy when listening to it at medium volume levels. It works well, when you either listen to it at a low or high volume level. There are no adjustments to be made other than volume and tuning.

Pros
Size,Water resistant, takes just about any Makita Battery
Cons
Bass heavy sound profile
