Beautifully uncomplicated to operate. The instruction manual is simple to comply with, and at the time you get acquainted with the buttons and knobs, it’s going to turn into second character. The audio is very very clear and crisp, specifically on dab stations.

I purchased it to listen to british isles radio whilst in spain exactly where they do not have dab and only nearby stations on fm but i can stream from the internet from a large range of stations using this minimal box of tricks. Quick to set up and use and more than acceptable audio high-quality – it is a radio not a hello-fi. The only explanation i have specified it 4 stars is since it does not have the facility to connect by means of bluetooth and engage in music from a cellular cellular phone. Not all people requires this and it is not a big deal for me definitely – just a great to have. Feels stable, great good quality and i like the search of it. Modern-day somewhat than the retro glimpse that so quite a few radios have at the second. Delighted with my acquire and would propose.

Just uncovered internet radio. I definitely really like this roberts radio, so several functions. I previously have a roberts dab bt so will be searching to market that though that is a fantastic radio much too. I have always been confined to two places in out household the place i can choose up a great sign, dab or fm so internet radio is the answer as it picks up almost everything and far more any place in the home and no fading out, amazing. Whilst the dab and fm sign are considerably greater than any other radio i have attempted and i have experienced a several. I also joined spotify which is truly easy to established up and having the cellular and fireplace pill remote control the radio is magic alongside with my usb stick entire of my have albums i am set up with my music. I was disappointing with the shipping box. The amazon outer box was good but the actual radio box experienced a terrific reduce in it which went suitable by way of the box. Nevertheless no sign of any problems to the guide or the radio but not excellent if i preferred it as a present or to offer it later on. Also within just two day the radio experienced been lower by above £13 but i see it is back again up to the price tag i paid out now.

Wonderful radio i like the wifi. So effortless to set up and it suppliers several numerous stations. All round i am quite pleased with it. Glad i procured it from amerzon for subsequent day delay.

Reviews from purchasers :

  • really good radio
  • Stil Love this radio though
  • An excellent radio

This is a fantastic little radio – tons of functions, appears to be fantastic, and performs effectively with the cellular cellphone application. Items i’ve mentioned:- bass is a minimal underwhelming, but it is really enough. – wifi link is knocked-out by the microwave, which isn’t ideal currently being positioned in the kitchen. Have thus had to hard-wire into a homeplug. – occasionally doesn’t completely convert-off (i. The backlight on the buttons will sometimes remain illuminated even after switching off, and then the device is non-responsive so necessitates unplugging and plugging back in to the ability provide). Even so, this is fairly infrequent. I have employed it to play music from my pc on the radio in the kitchen area (via spotify), as effectively as utilizing the app to pick out tunes from my household music server (nas), but for the most element i use internet radio (no have to have for dab when you’ve got bought internet radio). With all of these it performs fantastic.

Very very good radio but it is very plasticky but other than that superior speakers and features.

. Nothing like as very good as the mighty roberts stream 83i , only £20 additional.

We have entered the era when radios are no for a longer period just radios as we’ve appear to know them at all. In the multi-platform electronic streaming period of the internet, catch up and podcasts the radio is now obtaining to compete with cellular smartphones and tablets in get to keep suitable. 00 roberts stream 217 dab/wi-fi and internet radio with yet another added further it will also stream your digial music library from your ios or android smartphone, despite the fact that roberts seem to make the final alternative extra difficult than it actually is, and the manual would not assistance to explain items both. But i am going to help you with that afterwards in the critique. For starters let’s begin with the basic principles. On using it out of the box the radio appears to be clever and contemporary with a thoroughly clean interface. It is incredibly effortless to established up and you really don’t require the handbook to get it up and jogging. I simply plugged it in at the mains socket, pulled the aerial up and switched it on. The several functionality buttons are illuminated with a blue track record that provides a good touch.

Now its like traveling to a further nation, i can just shut my eyes and imagine that i am there. When i swap this radio on ,its like staying transported to anywhere in the environment. This radio has a excellent high-quality sound and additional stations than i could at any time will need with genres moreover podcasts and many others.

This replaced an previously edition i experienced been working with. This updated model has a number of enhancements: remote regulate by means of a smartphone and wi-fi 12 presets per band (fm, dab and internet) favourites are accessed remotely, but the twelve presets offset this. Exhibit is coloured and very clear controls are reasonably intuitive and uncomplicated. Fm reception is fantastic even in a weak signal region, dab is impeccable, but 1 would purchase this radio in essence for internet radio. Another improvement is ‘standby’ manner which lets extremely speedy accessibility to internet on swap on, whilst starting up from chilly involves a selected delay contacting. This is ideal only to mains use considering that there is a compact residual recent use. The radio is effective on mains and battery. My outdated radio was weighty on batteries (u2). I have not yet had occasion to review the use of this radio on batteries by itself. Audio top quality is distinct and dazzling. Total i am delighted with it.

Great signal, simple to tune the stations in. My most important reason for the invest in was to have a dabs radio alarm clock. All the other extras like internet radio was a bonus. The handbook is effectively published and uncomplicated to comply with. Established up the wireless connection in minutes. This model also will come with a community port at the again for people who have community ports in their property. Acquiring the pod casts was also a surprise, cookery in distinct for our invalid mom who has no mobility and a ton of time on her arms to sit and pay attention to these.

Exceptional good quality and services.

Fantastic audio and effortless to url to the interent.

Quite fantastic radio, no challenges so significantly. Aside from it freezing and owning to change off at the mains and then back again on. Internet radio is outstanding.

Wonderful radio obtained the lot clear audio and wi-fi as effectively.

Superb radio that i use each day. I enjoy the relationship to spotify and the upnp when i want to hear my library music on my mac. That roberts radio is one particular that i prefer in my assortment.

Excellent price, high-quality & audio. Quick to work, with internet radio & podcasts and many others. Manage the device, also with your mobile cell phone. Simply instal ‘undock’ app- simplicity & ease of use. Greatest get yourselves an up grade, like this. You will in no way regret & will appreciate it so a great deal. Really don’t hesitate, get the ideal still .

I acquired this radio for my parents, as they essential to update their kitchen area radio. They could not consider the alternative of stations, simplicity of use and sound high-quality – this was a revelation. They beloved this reward and i said i would produce a evaluation to tell all people how fantastic this radio is.

Web radios, linked to dlna residence community to perform music, autoupdate itself, stereo seems ok.

I previously have two stream 93i radios (a single for the bedroom and 1 for the dwelling space) which, whilst wonderful in them selves are not particularly intended to be moveable as the stream 93i can only be applied by way of a mains electric power relationship. By distinction, the stream 217 has both ac and dc power ability, which naturally presents it the edge over its sibling model, as significantly as portability is involved. Nonetheless, be warned that you will need to have to spend in six dimension d batteries to ability the 217. Rechargable batteries are plainly a reasonable selection, in the instances, but you will also will need to make investments in a different battery charger if you do choose for reachargable batteries, as the 217 simply cannot charge batteries alone, although they are within the radio. I like the neat and trim design and style of the 217, as effectively the bright and very clear prime display, nicely angled for ‘user-friendly’ visibility. Seem sensible, the 217 is remarkable (though in this office it does not pretty match the 93i, which has a rear-firing woofer, which the 217 does not have. Nonetheless, the 217 coped with the calls for of typical fm and radio three admirably) location up of the internet method is a doddle, and took fewer than ten minutes, making use of the setup wizard. Just make sure you have a great wi-fi relationship/signal in buy to stay away from annoying interuptions to your listenting, which can and do materialize with a sluggish download speed from your modem/router. Overall, i have been delighted with the 217 considering the fact that i very first utilised it and so would really advocate it to anybody who wishes high-quality efficiency, put together with the included convenience that portability brings through the selection of battery energy.

  1. This review is from : Roberts Radio Stream217 DAB/FM/Wi-Fi Internet Radio with Music Player and Spotify Connect – Black

    I so wanted this to be a five star review. I love radio, love radio gadgets and i really like roberts as a brand. The stream218bk is a fine looking radio, with good use of plastic plus an excellent clear display and a beyond simple to use interface. It has a good fm radio, sublime dab digital radio functionality (with an excellent ability to sort out weak muxs), internet radio, podcasts, and other advanced connectivity such as spotify or being able to connect with a home media server or your own mobile device. Sound quality is good for a radio. No, of course it isn’t hifi quality, but given its size and functions it will definitely do. Connecting the radio to my home wifi was child’s play too. Unfortunately the radio loses a star for me when it comes to background noise whilst listening to internet radio. It appears the wireless chip may be interfering with either the speakers or one of the sound chips. This manifests itself with a digital noise that is beyond annoying. At medium to high volumes you cannot hear the chirping at all, but at low volumes or through earphones it becomes deal breakingly irritating. This is a terrible shame when the rest of the package is so good. After researching this issue it would appear it is a known fault with a few models which are happily and speedily replaced by the suppliers.

      1. This is a great modern radio. Its features are perfect for the modern era concernig the amount of choice you get in what you can listen to, from spotify, digital and internet radio. The way to use it it is very intuative, and easy to set, and get to program. However, my one when not in use and just left with power going to it in standby mode gives off a horrible noise like a quiet isdn router working from teh old days and teh only way to get rid of it is to switch the radio off at the plug which means you lose things such as the clock. Also you not going to sleep through this backround noise so you cant use it as an alarm. I recomend it for funtionality and hopefully its just mine that does this, but i suggest if you buy this radio make sure this is the first thing you check to make sure its working correctly.

    1. The roberts stream 218 radio needs to justify its high price point, and fortunately it does exactly that with a set of 6 different “modes” – dab radio, fm radio, internet radio (including podcasts), bluetooth, music player and spotify connect (for which you need a spotify account and supporting phone/laptop/pc app). In addition it has two independently settable alarms and a headphone socket. It comes with a 70 page instruction booklet (which i prefer to having to download a pdf manual from the internet); the instructions are very well laid out – lots of detail, but its sensibly divided up into sections with a good table of contents so that you never feel you’re having to wade through pages of instructions to find out what you need. It didn’t take more than 10 minutes to get the basics and wifi set up, and after that its easy to work your way gradually through each of the modes. The sound is good, the radio itself compact and quite light, with the option to run by battery if you don’t have an available power source. Controls are clear and uncluttered, and the visual small-screen display is good. There are 5 preset buttons on the unit, but in addition over 40 presets for each of the other modes. Remote control from your phone or tablet is available via the (free) undok application; i installed this on my android phone and it found the radio without any problems. I have found that very occasionally the app seems to lose the ability to contact the radio, but when this happens either restarting the app or the radio seems to cure the problem; nevertheless one hopes that a future firmware update to the radio (which is delivered over wifi) or the app will make the interaction more reliable. Connection with spotify is also straightforward; the radio appears as a spotify connect device so you can control it from the standard spotify app from your platform.

    1. A good retro looking radio, but with all mod cons. Less than 24 hrs and i’m already a fan. This radio can play from the internet, so access stations all around the world including a lot of podcasts. Next it can play music which is stored somewhere else on your network, eg. From my husband’s computer to my radio in the kitchen ( i haven’t used this yet). It can connect to spotify and you can switch the music from headphones to the radio. Spotify also has readymade party playlists. Next are dab and fm radio, which come with up to 40 presets for your favourites (and that is 40 for dab and 40 for fm). Then you can use bluetooth to play from your bluetooth device (eg iphone). On top it has a clock, two alarms, a sleep alarm (it will automatically switch off after a set time) and there is a kitchen timer function.

    Very good radio, no problems so far. Apart from it freezing and having to turn off at the mains and then back on. Internet radio is outstanding.

    1. This is a great little radio – lots of features, looks good, and works well with the mobile phone app. Things i’ve noted:- bass is a little underwhelming, but it’s adequate. – wifi connection is knocked-out by the microwave, which isn’t ideal being placed in the kitchen. Have therefore had to hard-wire into a homeplug. – occasionally doesn’t fully turn-off (i. The backlight on the buttons will sometimes remain illuminated even after switching off, and then the unit is non-responsive so necessitates unplugging and plugging back in to the power supply). However, this is relatively infrequent. I’ve used it to play music from my pc on the radio in the kitchen (via spotify), as well as using the app to select tunes from my home music server (nas), but for the most part i use internet radio (no need for dab when you’ve got internet radio). With all of these it works great.

    I bought it to listen to uk radio whilst in spain where they do not have dab and only local stations on fm but i can stream from the internet from a huge range of stations using this little box of tricks. Easy to set up and use and more than acceptable sound quality – it is a radio not a hi-fi. The only reason i have given it 4 stars is because it does not have the facility to connect via bluetooth and play music from a mobile phone. Not everybody needs this and it is not a big deal for me really – just a nice to have. Feels solid, good quality and i like the look of it. Modern rather than the retro look that so many radios have at the moment. Happy with my purchase and would recommend.

    The buttons light up – a silly thing i know, but it’s quite pleasing to see and looks a bit like a spaceship control panel 🙂 the buttons only light up ithe radio is on. The radio has a handle – very useful – and sturdy. It is adjustable in that it folds away. The volume button is a round turn button – so turn one way for more volume and vice versa. Much better than buttons you have to press up and on to adjust volume. If you lose wi-fi connection and you were listening to internet radio, when it re-connects, the radio re-starts the station that was playing, so no re-tuning. The sound is very good and not tinny at all. There is an equalizer but it’s not very effective.

    Good signal, easy to tune the stations in. My main reason for the purchase was to have a dabs radio alarm clock. All the other extras like internet radio was a bonus. The manual is well written and easy to follow. Set up the wireless connection in minutes. This model also comes with a network port at the back for those who have network ports in their home. Having the pod casts was also a surprise, cookery in particular for our invalid mother who has no mobility and a lot of time on her hands to sit and listen to these.

      1. The radio dab roberts stream 217 has confirmed the expectations, it is very simple to use and really immediate to connect with home wifi network. The sound is good, sufficient for home use; with a maximum level of 32, i use not more than 22-24, but also at the higher level the sound remains good without any distorsion. The portability of the device is assured with 6 batteries (not included); radio stream 217 can function also as speaker of a tablet or a smartphone if connected with a double jack 3.

    Just discovered internet radio. I really love this roberts radio, so many features. I already have a roberts dab bt so will be looking to sell that although that is a great radio too. I have always been limited to 2 spots in out house where i can pick up a good signal, dab or fm so internet radio is the answer as it picks up everything and more anywhere in the house and no fading out, brilliant. Although the dab and fm signal are far better than any other radio i have tried and i have had a few. I also joined spotify which is really easy to set up and having the mobile and fire tablet remote control the radio is magic along with my usb stick full of my own albums i am setup with my music. I was disappointing with the delivery box. The amazon outer box was fine but the actual radio box had a great cut in it which went right through the box. However no sign of any damage to the manual or the radio but not good if i wanted it as a present or to sell it later on. Also within 2 day the radio had been reduce by over £13 but i see it is back up to the price i paid now.
    1. Just discovered internet radio. I really love this roberts radio, so many features. I already have a roberts dab bt so will be looking to sell that although that is a great radio too. I have always been limited to 2 spots in out house where i can pick up a good signal, dab or fm so internet radio is the answer as it picks up everything and more anywhere in the house and no fading out, brilliant.
