iHome iH8BR Clock Radio for iPod Review

I used this model during a two-night stay at a Marriott hotel in Boston. I found the sound quality of the iH8 really appalling, and the volume does not go up very high. The sound quality makes your 256kps MP3 files sound little better than the stuff you get on an average FM radio, and the volume is not loud enough even for a typical double at the Marriott.

What makes the model really suck is it's very difficult to figure out. For example, I looked and looked but could not figure out how to set the time (it was off by 10 minutes). The alarm setting is also very confusing. Also, the display does not show you much information, and it cannot be dimmed at night when you go to bed.

I had heard good things about iHome products before but was totally disappointed by my experience. I had been thinking of getting one at Toys r us for fifty bucks but will now look elsewhere for a better-quality iPod clock radio.
