Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Grundig M300BL Mini300PE Handheld Shortwave Radio (Metallic Blue)
Customer Review: Excellent value, good reception overall.
Summary: 4 Stars
I was looking for a good replacement for a little Sony radio I had been using. The Grundig Mini 300 has far exceeded my expectations! Other reviewers had mentioned the "very sensitive tuning" and I agree, but once one gets used to it, it's not a problem. The AM reception is better than I had experienced with the Sony. I also gained having stereo for the FM as well as it's own satisfactory speaker although I usually listen using headphones. All this and then having SW bands to explore as well. All in all it's an excellent value. I would have gladly given it 5 stars except for the very sensitive tuning and a "loose" feel to the band switch. Neither of these things are a problem really, but just gives a "loose" feel. I'd buy another one in a minute if I had to replace this one.Customer Review: disappointing

1. the sound is terrific. When you play through the earphones, the true stereo sound is something else!
2. The sliding factor. Others have written about stations sliding. Where I live is a very powerful FM station that plays talk shows at night, which I enjoy. Unless I hold the radio, the station will slide. It was actually unlistenable!
3. the SW picks up quite well, but also had the sliding factor. If you put the radio in a certain spot in the house and stay away from it, you might hold a station. But how realistic is that??
What I thought was a great bargain ended up another return....
Customer Review: Nice travel radio and surprisingly sensitive!
Summary: 5 Stars
I have had many shortwave radios and I purchased this one especially for taking along with me on hikes and trips. I am quite pleased by the number of stations it pulled in-- a side-by-side comparison of this radio and a larger, more expensive portable showed the Mini300 received all of the same stations as the larger radio. This is a surprisingly sensitive little portable. The sound is also decent for such a small receiver. I love the blue metallic color, it's a nice little eyeful as well as earful. Highly recommended if you're looking for a very small, but well-performing portable sbortwave receiver.Customer Review: Very pleased with Grundig am/fm/sw hand held radio

Hi I am the proud owner of a Grundig mini 300PE am fm shortwave hand held radio. I am very pleased with the reception on all bands , the clarity and ease of use of this product.For its size it has loud volume with its 20 inch retractable antenna,clock and alarm function.It sports a beautiful carry case with an operation manual fitting compactly together inside with the radio and ooh there is a headset port.I will definitely remain with this brand name and recommend it to anyone interested in a top of the line product.Andy Wong- Trinidad & Tobago,West-Indies.Customer Review: Good little receiver
Summary: 4 Stars
I have several shortwave radios, but this has become the one I use the most because of it's small size, generally good performance and ease of use. To be sure, there are better receivers out there that cost more, but for $30 this little gem offers a lot of value for the money. Sensitivity and selectivity are good, audio quality is better than what you'd expect from its tiny speaker and the digital display makes it easy to find radio stations. All in all it's a neat little package.
