Pure Digital One Review

The Pure Digital One is an entry level DAB radio that won't dissapoint. It may only be around £50, but it's a radio that you'll be glad you spent the relatively inconsiderable sum on it.

It may be a lightweight DAB radio but you get your money's worth. The scrolling information bar can be paused to allow you to jot down any information you need.

Also, you can take it away with you, camping or on the beach as you can fit the "CargePak" to it which converts into a truely portable dab radio.

Of course you're not going to get a sound quality to rival the more expensive Pure Digital DAB radios, but its still worth the money.

Prices varie from £47.99 for a white version, £49.99 for the black and £52.39 for the pink. You can compare prices on the Pure Digital One DAB Radio.

Dualit Kitchen DAB Review

So I'm not the only one that thinks its a good idea to have a DAB Radio in the kitchen?

Dualit have come up with a nifty DAB radio specifically designed to have in your kitchen. It all depends on the style of you kitchen if you'll go for this metallic model or the wooden ones from Pure Evoke.

It is very easy to confuse it for a toaster when you're browsing sites looking for a DAB radio, but if you've already got a metallic toaster, what harm is it having a metallic radio in your kitchen?

But on to the features, it's a standard DAB radio with FM reception and has a small display to say what station you're on. In the kitchen I'm sure you're more interested in cooking that playing with the dials so you don't really need any more wizardry.

The main aspect you're probably interested in is it's ability to put out a good sound quality as you're baking bread or defrosting an Asda curry - the Dualit Kitchen DAB radio certainly get's a four star rating.

The only area I'm not so happy on is the price - £180 notes is a bit high for my liking. But if you're looking for a nice DAB radio to finish off your kitchen - you won't be disappointed. But John Lewis do it for just £149!
