The iHome iH30B Boom Box for iPods with FM Radio (Black) lets you listen to all your favorite iPod music or radio stations anywhere, with a fresh and modern twist on a boom box. This hip boom box can run on batteries, an AC outlet or a car adaptor so you can use it wherever you go, whether you are at home, camping or on the road. The iH30B boom box has a sharp LCD radio display with an adjustable white backlight and a built-in telescoping antenna to bring you clear FM-band radio reception. The radio in this unit comes with six buttons for programming in your favorite FM stations and jumping to them quickly. The iH30B is simple to use, with easy to adjust settings, and comes with three removable inserts and a rubber pad to ensure your iPod fits properly in the iPod drawer, allowing it to be compatible with all iPod models from the iPod video to the iPod Nano. Not only is this unit designed to be sleek and portable, but it can be powered at home, in your car, or independent of plug-ins so you can take it with you anywhere. And when you are running low on battery, you can activate the power save switch to prolong your battery life by automatically shutting off after sitting unused for a period. When the iH30B is powered by either the included AC adapter, or the included car adapter it automatically charges your iPod, but when you don't have access to an outlet it can run on eight C-cell batteries. This unit uses two stereo 4-inch speakers and a powerful stereo amplifier to provide you with a full, rich sound regardless of the volume level. This iHome boom box has a built-in audio input jack with an included patch cord for an external MP3 player, CD player, or other audio device, and has a headphone jack that allows you to listen to your music in privacy when the situation calls for it, as well as being remote-control capable (not included). The iH30B comes in a stylish black finish that complements both you and your iPod, measures 15.07 x 5.6 x 5.57 inches (W x H x D), and is backed by a manufacturer's limited 90-day warranty.

I bought this boombox for use at an event last year. I used it for 3 days. Last year I would have given it 4 stars, but unfortunately, I attempted to use it for the same event this year (1 year later) now I would give it a zero. The speakers won't work for iPod or Radio. There is still power, since the iPod charges. But, nothing comes out of the speakers. I question the quality of iHome after having to return a clock radio for a replacement after 6 months, and now this iHome boombox. So 2/3 iHome products were defective.
 Can't really complain for 50 bucks.. May 29, 2008
i've had mine only a few days however i bought my used and i haven't experienced problems. For me i needed something i can carry around and play music from my ipod. in most ipod players, they have to be stationary and the ipod is stinking out of the top where any slight bump could knock it over. This boom box keeps your ipod protected where there is no chance on you're ipod falling out. Its great for camping, going to the beach and anywhere you just want to be. this is truly a portable ipod player. i'll say that the only downside might be the sound quality and the fm radio. i haven't been able to listen to fm radio though i rather just listen to my ipod.
 Reliability less than expected March 8, 2008

I bought these speakers mainly for the flexibility of power supply: 110V AC, 12V DC, or C batteries. Other nice features are the enclosed iPod dock that provides a bit of protection, FM radio, and the remote. The sound is not too bad, and the price is right. However, the unit I got started failing after less than 3 months. When turned on, it would play OK for a few minutes, then emit a horrible screech and then only noise. Fortunately I bought it at Costco, so I was able to return it without any hassles (I threw away the original box.)
If you decide to get it, keep the original box for at least a few months.
 Disappointed March 8, 2008

I was very disappointed in the company. They advertise it as compatible with Ipods and that it will charge them while in use. They don't tell you that it will not charge the latest Ipod models and that to even use it with them you have to purchase an additional item (which turned out to be a small piece of foam tape). Since I needed to use the boom box and Ipod where I did not have access to a computer, I had to purchase a separate Ipod charger.

It's important to note that this Boom Box can play any MP3 player, but since I own an iPod, I'll review it from that perspective. The sound is clear with good tonal and bass levels. The placement of the iPod is ideal because it doesn't protrude from the top of the boombox. It sits safely in the front, where you can use your remote control to make it play what you want. It's built sturdy, and for a few extra bucks, you can buy a cloth container with a shoulder strap to make it easy to carry from one place to another. It also has FM capacity with preset buttons for your favorite radio stations. A definite must buy.
