However, others say that it would not connect via Bluetooth, is noticeably lacking when using Bluetooth, and does not play out to a Bluetooth system.

Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2022
-UPDATE: okay so after disabling normalize volume on my phone, bluetooth volume is the same as radio and sd. Awesome. Secondly, ive been running this stereo for 8 hours a day at work, since i bought it. On batteries. 12 days ago. Absolutely awesome battery life. Nearly full volume all 8 hours. Cant even believe it. Edit again. Has to be a month later, same 4 D's. Insane.
Firstly, the appearance WOULD be amazing if it weren't for the TERRIBLE quality control. The color of the yellow paint is eye-catching and cute, however, the crude paint job definitely looks like someone hosed it down outside with a rattle can. Orange peel everywhere. Some spots thicker than others. Edges so thin you can see the gray base beneath it, etc.
One of the speaker grilles was dented inward (pictured), the cassette player door was sunken in on one side and protruded outward on the other (pictured), and there was a specific button to control track functions for Bluetooth connection that was so caked with overspray from whatever Picaso painted this thing, that it would either get stuck or wouldn't budge at all (pictured).
As for the sound, well... it's about what you'd expect. I tried the Bluetooth function and found it to be flat with not much range to it and not all that loud. Being that it has what seems to be 2 substantial drivers, it definitely leaves a lot to be desired. I also tested the radio function which was actually serviceable and was able to tune in to more stations than I would've thought with a decent signal.
I know...I know... you shouldn't expect the best-of-the-best at this price range. It's just that I've owned other 'boombox' style radios that I've purchased for much less and they've lasted well over 10 years while also looking and sounding good! I also have a collection of Bluetooth speakers that I've purchased for half the price which have a sound to them that simply blows this out of the water.
All-in-all, I was hoping to get something that, at the very least, looked the part. This radio fails in almost every regard. Not sure if I just so happened to be the "lucky winner" or if this is the attention to detail they put into this entire line of Riptunes radios. As it stands, I cannot recommend this and will definitely be requesting a refund in order to purchase something with a bit more refinement and quality assurance.
Sorry, Riptunes... this ain't it!
