Emerson iP100SLA Portable Sound System with Digital Clock and Alarm Functions Review


In 2007, my son received the Emerson iP100SLA Portable Sound System with Digital Clock and Alarm Functions as a Christmas present from his aunt. He seemed happy with it.

Just this morning, I found it out on the patio. He had left it there after using it in our laundry room (yet another thing he failed to put up after using it, but I digress...). I now have an iPhone, and wondered if it worked with it as well. I also noticed it has an AM radio option. I have a favorite talk radio show that I listen to when I can, but not as frequently as I like. This unit is small and compact, and knew it would fit next to my computer without being an intrusion on my workspace. I tested whether my iPhone fit. YES. I played some music and WOW! Nice clear and booming sound. AM/FM radio is a much appreciated plus, along with the alarm feature. Low profile and cool look add to it's attractability. I was impressed.

I came to this site to see the cost, as I'd like to purchase one for myself. Imagine my surprise when I saw the low, one star rating. I read the review, and thankfully I have not seen the issues the other person encountered. As I stated earlier, my son has had and used this over a year, so the fact that I am a "newbie" to using this is not the issue. I tested the power ON/OFF button and it works as it's supposed to. I don't mind the bright LED light.

From what I've seen and experienced, it is a great unit. I am impressed. Now, hopefully my son can be bribed...errr...persuaded to give this one up? Somehow, I doubt it.

Buy it here now!
