Pros: Decent styling and good size to fit under any cabinet

Cons: Poor shielding/grounding and sound quality. No battery backup for pre-sets, clock, alarms.

bentbaz's Full Review: Sony ICF-CD513 Clock Radio
Lousy shielding for a so-called kitchen appliance means you'll listen to a loud hum with your radio or CD tunes. Not even a grounded chassis via 3-prong plug! Inexcusable for a kitchen unit!

Fussy CD deck means that only "perfectly clean" CD's will play.

No battery backup means that every power glitch will have you reprogramming the clock, alarm settings, radio station pre-sets etc.

Mediocre sound quality. You have to turn it up to drown out the hum from other kitchen appliances. Not good for much besides FM Talk radio. (Forget AM unless you really like "hum")
