There isnt a great amount to say on this product, largely because there isnt alot to it, its pretty simple:

The Aiwa FR/A220 is your typical alram clock/radio combo.
It demonstrates a digital display and pretty simple-to-use operations for its programming, although, as is the case with alarm clocks, it wasnt as straightforward as the manufacturer, Aiwa, probably invisaged.

It does implement some good design points in its style, take for example the flat bottom, which makes it more stable than some products of this nature, particularly with the typical morning procedure of just hitting the general direction of the clock to shut it up at 7 30am!
Also to the aesthetic bonus of this unit is the detailing of the 2 ring around the display, this adds an addition to the visual content of the product.

The colour scheme isnt brilliantly stimulating and the pastic seems tacky to feel, but it is a good effort considering the limited dimentions the design team were laboured with. It is also well built, as are most Aiwa products, which means it should be durable enough to last a while.

This unit does have radio, but lacks CD capabilites, however, considering the size etc, the sound quality is relatively impressive.

Overall, this isnt the most innovative or exiting product in the world, and it certainly wont create any inspiration, but considering what it does, it is passable...it does the job and nothnig else. It is good value for money, but I only reccomend it to buyers if they are looking for something basic and average.
