Others say...

"Does the job."
I sent this as a gift for my son who says it works as advertised and has a nice speaker system, too. He really liked it, so that's good enough for me.

"Works great, except the FM Radio."
I bought this from Amazon for $56 on black friday 2008. My feedback on the product:

Works with IPOD - Good. Charges IPOD and plays it at the same time. Mine is 30GB Video IPOD.

Looks - Good. Mine was black color.
Sound Quality: Good
Ease of use: good
I didn't have any issues with the brightness intensity. It has 3 levels and I think they are good enough to meet your needs. You can turn the front panel off as well, if you want.

The major issue I had with this one was the FM / AM reception. In my house, where my music system, my Sansa MP3 Player FM Tuner and car radios pick up 22 stations, this picked up 3 or 4 and almost none was good enough. There was cross-talk and garbled reception on weaker stations with the antenna fully pulled out as per the instructions in the manual.

I connected the output of my Sandisk Fuze MP3 player FM Tuner to this unit using the supplied 3.5mm AUX Cable and all 22 stations worked perfect. This unit's FM receiver is simply junk.

Even though I liked this unit otherwise, I returned this product to Amazon in 1 day. Now waiting for my refund.

You can buy this product, if you don't care about FM. If FM is important to you, don't try it.

Other weird issue with the FM tuner is that it doesn't store the FM Channels. You need to manually tune to FM station every time. Well it doesn't matter since you can't hear to most of the stations anyway.

"Good Product"
We had a problem with the unit that came but the manufacture was prompt to get us one that worked and we love it.

"excellent moneys worth"
Everyone with an iPod knows about the iHome. I wanted the iHome but didn't want to pay the $90 or however much it was at the time for it. I investigated for alternatives and found the iLuv for about $30 cheaper with the same amount of good reviews. So I took a chance and bought it.
I wasn't expecting an outstanding audio experience, so I wasn't at all disappointed. This is perfect to play music while I'm studying, cleaning my room, playing games, whatever.
Buy it if you have an iPod (unless you're someone with an already good audio system [i.e. surround sound] that you could plug into.

"Returned"
I just bought this to replace my standard clock radio which had died. So my no 1 priority was for clock radio functionality. Unfortunately, as a clock radio the ILuv falls short with two main annoyances.

1) The dimmer - it has four settings; bright, brighter, brightest and off. The lowest setting is way too bright for me, it is like a flashlight shining in my eyes, and turning off the dimmer just defeats the whole purpose.
2) The Alarm volume - the minimum setting is 10, why not 1? Too loud for me first thing in the morning.

As an iPod speaker, it works pretty well, the sound covers a decent range, not huge but more than acceptable for this price range. The volume control is a little annoying, but no show stopper.

If you can live with the bright display and loud minimum volume, then I would recommend this, however I find the dimmer to bright for my liking and will be returning this product. From other reviews I have read, most iPod clock-Radios suffer from the same problem, sad, looks like no iPod compatible clock radio for me.
