Jensen JIMS-195-BK Docking Digital Music System/Alarm Clock for iPod and MP3 Players (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this docking station for Christmas along with a nice iPod Classic. The station worked fine. I was able to sync and charge the iPod just fine. The sound isn't going to fill a room, but it was more the fine for my desktop. True, the clock display is both a bit small and at a poor angle which made it impossible to read from anywhere other then 2-5 feet away at a 45 degree angle to it, but that didn't matter for long.

Not more then 3 hours of having it plugged in, the display started acting erraticly with nothing legible until just a short time after this is went completely blank. Not as in "No power", but rather it stares at me dumbly with a lit, albeit empty, blue screen.

The kicker: I've returned it twice and the same thing has happened to me a total of 3 times. The exact same problem.

On the bright side, it was purchased on sale for $29 as opposed to it's regular $70 and almost everything works fine: The iPod still charges, syncs and plays through the speakers, but the radio is too much of a hassle to try and use since you can't tell what station you are on, the clock can't be read at all and the alarm can't be used since you can't see the time or the alarm time that you would be setting.

So, is it worth $29 to have an iPod docking station that charges, syncs and plays? I think yes. Is the same thing worth $70? Well, in my humble opinion, I'd rather pick something out with all the functions working as advertised.
