Looking for a clock radio suggestion.....

[Don]

>>> Best Buy still has a large selection

Happen to be in a Best Buy this week a and didn't really find anything on 
display.  (They have some online for order though..)

They DID have this interesting unit on display....wondering what the radio 
folks in in this group think about it?

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/ihome-avs16-smart-alarm-clock-with-alexa-voice-assistant-black/6010506.p?skuId=6010506

Someone in the family had an "iHome" radio a few years back, and I was not 
impressed with the radio reception.  Not sure if it an inherent brand 
problem or what.

Would love to hear comments/opinions.

Thanks!

D
