great
Very nice piece of kit, easy to use, good remote, sound excellent, only improvement i could say would make it perfect is if there was a sound equalization feature for when using multiple tracks on usb, overall though its excellent

Beautiful and full of features but sound is shallow and interface is difficult.
Bass is very shallow. Was expecting a bit more in the low frequencies. Lacking memory buttons and you need to circle through your 20 presets. In radio mode, you need to choose whether the "next" and "previous" buttons scan OR change preset stations. Switching between the two is difficult. Very beautiful, small and elegant. Rich sources choice DAB, Analogue radio, CD, Bluetooth.

Ok as a secondary unit
Nice looking easy to use unit that fits in almost anywhere The bluetooth connection can be a bit awkward to reinstate if the unit is moved. Sound quality will never blow you away its ok in our kitchen as we mainly use the radio but if you want to crank it up a bit with cds or bluetooth then this is not for you !

Is it worth it?
Do not make mistakes in buying this Hifi. It is good as CD player but dab radio is may be good but the aerial that comes with is not suitable. For a unit costing you £160 one would expect a decent aerial and not bit of wire with f plug on it..now I know why retailer like curry had no working demo unit...and one would expect Panasonic would take bit more interest in marketing their product. I would give 2 star for the CD player but otherwise... A big regrate

Good Design good value!
At the price paid this is well worth it and good value provided you are not expecting too much. This is not a criticism.... Clearly there are better products but for my daughters bedroom this is, stylish, has good features and is easy to use.

Ideal unit
Works well in all modes, sound good and easy to use. If it had a down side at all it would be the lack of an included aerial, this was easily fixed by buying a generic stick type. But all in all I am well please with the quality and value for money.

Good wall-hanging system.
Easy to use, crisp clear sound is excellent it you like the "tone" up to hear the singer and words well. It is not as good as the Pioneer if you like a booming bass sound. I chose to buy this one because I wanted to attach it to the wall in the kitchen near shelves which might dull the sound a little. The strong treble in the speakers is just right and I have no regrets. It looks good too.

As a refurbished unit great value, good sound and features
As a refurbished unit it was first class, very good value for £50. The sound quality is great for a small room or bed room , if you are looking for a lot of bass then go for a more expensive product.

Sound choice
I bought this to use as a bluetooth speaker but find it so convenient and easy to use its become my main source for music. Dab reception is excellent. And connection via nfc makes life very easy. Still exploring panasonic streaming app but otherwise awesome value for money. I paid less than some standalone speakers.

Easy to use compact CD system for the home
A really good system for an average home. Had to grade it three stars but more like four stars but the description would have been " better than expected". The product is as good as expected as I already have an identical one in my living room and I bought this one for the bedroom.
