JENSEN SMPS-628 Under-Cabinet Universal Bluetooth Music System

Great radio for the money, easy to install with the template provided sound is good too, had another radio for 20 years it was more than twice the size to replace it would have been $400. Glad I ordered this one instead.

OK, so I have no clue what any of the negative reviews are all about on this little unit. Unless, of course, people were expecting to get Klipsch quality sound for $35... I just don't get it. This little unit arrived a few days ago and it met, or surpassed what I was expecting. It is easy to install, with the one sheet template for drilling screws. It has plastic pieces that you can add on during installation if you have a lip on the cabinet to get past. It is easy to program and has nice little features. Plus, it is tiny. We can now get to some of our kitchen utensils without banging into our old, very outdated system. The sound? The sound is not bad. The bass is a little lacking, but this is a $35 KITCHEN stereo unit... not a Home Theater system. It sounds great and I love the Bluetooth option, the AUX option and the FM radio option. All work great and are easy to set up and use. If you are looking for a nice little stereo for your kitchen (unless your kitchen is over 500 square feet) then this is a great little unit. Inexpensive too!

Not many under cabinet models to pick from these days so settled on this one. Sound quality is ok but tinny. Very compact and easy to install. FM reception is very good with builtin antenna. Only issue I have with it is the volume is too loud at its lowest setting on FM radio. V01 should be V03. I returned my first one because of this but my replacement is the same way so must be the way it is unfortunately.

I needed this for a standing workstation to replace a portable Bluetooth speaker sitting on the work surface that I'd wired into a PC. The sound from that PC has always sucked. First, the monitor is actually a 27" TV, so I thought I'd use the built-in speakers for sound. Nope. Weak. Then I bought a Bluetooth beach speaker with the appropriate aux port and wired it into the PC. Nope. It only has one very static-y radio station (barely audible), the sound is weak, and it takes up precious workspace (only have 18"x48" and that speaker takes 11 square inches of it). So, I thought I'd try this. Being an under cabinet radio and my standing workspace is actually an industrial wire shelving system with a desktop mounted, I figure I could just hang this from the shelf above and have it out of the way. But it'd still be accessible, with the clock visible (a problem in that area of my place). This has a radio, with presets, AUX in, Bluetooth, and the reviews said it was loud. I'm here to say it is. I just took this thing out of the box (it's not mounted or wired in yet), but my initial impression is "awestruck". First off, it's VERY loud. 3 is a comfortable volume for me sitting here in front of it. It was initially at 6, which could be heard all the way at the other side of my place over the washing machine. Most radios don't have any reception at my place. This one seems to get the highlights, though many with some static. Seems positioning the cord helps. I think it uses it as the antenna. Maybe extending the cord will help too. I've actually never had a single radio other than my alarm clock pick up any stations at my place. We'll see what it's like when I get it mounted. The mounting is why I was inspired to write this review so soon after taking it out of the box. The spacers are genius. They're three position slotted, so 1/3 turn gives you 3 different heights. Four if you count not using them at all. Approximately 5/8"-7/8" with (my ruler has a gap between the measure start and the edge, so I can't be exact), and approximately 1/4" without. I've never seen spacers done this well. Someone really put some thought into this. If you use them, you'll never be without the right size after installation when you need to remount it somewhere else, which is a problem with every other radio I've ever seen with separate sized spacers (you use 3/4" spacers on one install and are stuck with that size for life because the others are nowhere to be found, ever). The backup battery (2-AAA) compartment is accessible while it's mounted, so that's well thought-out too. Relatively small footprint as well. Plus all the other features? I have a feeling this thing's going to be around a while. The only thing I'd like more about this is if it was white. Gloss white would blend better. Maybe be easier to clean. It's not as solidly constructed as, well, just about anything else electronic in my house, but it's inexpensive and made to be mounted under a cabinet (so not a lot of handling/impacts are anticipated). The screws are too long for me and the receiver threads built inside the unit feel sloppy and gritty. They should work. They just don't feel like quality. Not sure if the slop is to aid amateur installers who don't drill holes in the right place. It looks like it comes with a hole drilling template so getting the holes where they need to be shouldn't take hardly any math. Not a fan of the LED light. It's dim and a bright bluish (so a garish 4,000K-5,000K~ish color temp). The clock face has limited visibility from certain directions. The numbers just disappear if you're not standing in front of it, which is a problem I don't have with any other clock in my place.

I got this for I'm the kitchen. The Bluetooth picks up great and the radio works fine. My complaint is with the speakers. They are a little bit tinny.

This little under-cabinet really does click all the boxes. - well designed mounting bracket, very secure and sturdy - great reception, in an area where we don't typically get good reception from other devices - easy to use (read the manual once) - remarkably loud, perfect for filling a space and especially for someone who is hard of hearing. - sound reproduction is very clear, even at high volumes We have been using it for five months now and no problems at all. Recommended!

This is a great little radio, perfect for a kitchen. It mounts beautifully and has a great system for picking up FM stations. I'm very happy with the quality of sound and the product overall.

I really like this under cabinet radio. It is really easy to install, all my local radio stations come in clear even without the antenna put up and the stations are easy to program. The light is a nice touch and works great as a night light. When the timer goes off it starts out really quiet and progressively gets louder, so if your in a different room, you will be able to hear it. The only downside is it is a 20 station radio program, I only have 6 programmed and in order to go between stations, you have to scroll through all 20 stations to get back to number one. Overall, this is a really great radio for the price.

Producto de buena calidad

Works perfect, blue tooth connects easy ,sound quality is excellent.

Très bien juste le son qui aurait du descendre plus

ES UN EQUIPO QUE REALMENTE EN LA FOTO APARENTA ESTAR DE MAYOR TAMAÑO, PERO NO ES ASÍ, LA CALIDAD DEL SONIDO NO ES MUY BUENO, CONFORME LE VAS SUBIENDO EL VOLUMEN SE VA DISTORSIONANDO EL MISMO. EL BLUETOOTH NO LO RECONOCE MI TELÉFONO LENOVO PHAB

Nice radio for sure. Small - We had a ~15 yr old undercabinet radio/cd , this one is half or less the size. Good radio reception - Better than the old radio. It does have an antenna wire that you can deploy. Radio presets - It can store up to 20 presets, but no direct preset buttons so you have to press the 'next preset' button 4 times to go from #1 to #5, or 16 times to go from #5 back to #1. Bluetooth - Sync'd with my phone effortlessly, not sure the range but doesnt drop anywhere in my kitchen (about 16ft long). NFC enabled - I just start up Spotify etc on my phone, then tap the phone under this radio and it switches on, connects to the bluetooth, and plays the music. You dont have to use this feature, but Ive been finding it pretty handy. Install - A previous review mentioned no template, but mine came with one. One thing I would add to the recommended install tools is a countersink drill bit. The screw-bolts need to be countersunk into the 'floor' of your cabinet, otherwise dishes/cups etc will catch on the edge of the screw heads. 3/16" drill bit and a 3/8" countersink would be suitable. The radio comes with little multi-position height adapters to allow the radio to be mounted nice in relation to your cabinet face. My only slight complaint so far is the vol level. Its a digital kind of control. "0" is mute, so "1" is the lowest it will go. It's still a bit loud if you're trying to make a coffee while others are still sleeping nearby maybe ? If a "0.6" vol level was available, that would be ideal. It's not so bad that it's a deal breaker for me though.
