    No, not at all. It started ejecting CDs intermittently few months ago when pushing radio station preset buttons, then shuts off the radio. Digital screen gets garbled sometimes too. I couldn't possible have been more 'gentle' with this radio / CD unit. It's a failure.

    Replacement units are often refurbished units, so this may be the reason with the short life span.
