 Cute and works great!Dec 27, 2008
By The Taminator
"There's no going back. You've changed things... forever."
First off, the dock portion is for iPod and nothing else. You can use other players with it, but they have to run off their battery and the sound goes in through some auxiliary connections behind the unit. The box says "for iPod" all over it, and even says the docking station charges iPods-- it does not say anywhere that the dock is for other players. There is one bubble that says there is an aux input for other players, including the pictured Barbie player (and believe me, it's a very tiny picture). Other devices will not dock with this product. It does not claim anywhere that other, non-iPod devices are dockable. I don't know how much more clear the packaging could be about this.
That said, it was easy to get out of the box, plug it in, and start using it. There are several trays included so that your player will fit comfortably, including a couple for non-iPods that do not dock with it. Find the tray that best cradles your device, and snap it in. Then plug it in, put in your iPod, and turn it on. The buttons are all pretty straightforward, and I imagine you'd have no trouble with the clock or the alarm.
While the sound is not of stereo quality, it does pump up the volume exactly like I need with my hearing issues. There's a radio on it in addition to the iPod dock, and it works like most any clock radio would. It's constructed so that the iPod sits at a near-perfect 90 degree angle, which is probably OK for bedside use. I'm using this in another area, and this would have been better for me if it tilted back a couple of degrees.
This is perfect for a child, as well as a nice addition to "the Barbie room" for you collectors out there. It looks really cute with my doll collection, and plays my movies and music while I'm in there moving things around or showing off my plastic girls. Great or kids-- and the kid in you.

 Very good for its price.Dec 16, 2010
By Charles Sundin

Bottom line....perfect for our 8 year old daughter with an ipod nano.
I wish the buttons were labelled better and were lighted (for my older man eyes at night), but this serves the purpose perfectly. It has the radio and the ipod functions. SOund is controlled with the knob on the left and tuning with the knob on the right. She also loves the fact it has a glowing pink night light built in. It runs the entire loop around the top pink cover. For the price and the functions, this is ideal.
It also charges her Nano while she sleeps, so we solved that dilema at the same time.
DisappointedAug 12, 2011
By Cavamom
I was all excited when I purchased this as a gift for my daughters. When I received the item I wrapped it up and gave it to my girls. When they opened it they were so excited. Once I plugged it in we realized that the FM radio didn't work. The radio doesn't pick up any stations unless its on the floor. Plus, when I bought it the description said it comes with 5 Ipod adapters but it NEVER did. My daughters cannot connect the Ipod without the adapters. We have looked every where for an adapter and still have not been able to locate one for this radio/alarm clock. :-( The only thing good about this item is that the alarm clock works. Overall, its very pretty in design but not much else is good about it unless you have the adapters. I would not recommend this item to anyone.

 Misleading DescriptionMay 30, 2008
By Mystery Fan
"NW"
Although this is cute, it gives the impression that it works with MP3 players - including the matching Barbie Petal MP3 player - but it does not. There is even a picture of the Barbie MP3 player on the box. You cannot dock the MP3 player, only plug it in and play it. We bought it specifically for my 7-year to go with her new very own MP3 player, and it did not work as advertised. They are very vague about it even in the instructions. It is perfect if you have an Ipod, but not an MP3 player.

Does not play video outputFeb 08, 2009
By Subpilot
This unit would have been perfect for my daughter's room to play videos off the ipod and display on her tv. Problem is it would not pass the video from either my 5th generation Ipod Classic nor my Ipod Nano 3G through the unit's video output. Maybe I have a lemon as this product does advertise that it has this ability and it even specifies 5G Ipod compatible with the video output.
