For the price with all the functions I guess its ok but I went from a Valor flip out to this... terrible choice.. I basically looked at all of the functions for the price, too good to be true for the price. Everything does work fine besides the ipod function. It doesnt always read that its plugged in, and when it does work it doesnt for long. I always have to soft reset the device then the ipod will work for a bit but not even a full day and it doesnt charge the ipod either.. and with Valor being just a bit more expensive the OS is so much cleaner, the sound is so much better and the functions always work and for a long time and it charges your ipod as well as lets you use ur ipod while hooked up through the screen, the Soundstream does not- you have to manually select your music and then plug it back in.. O well.. what I guess Iam trying to say is if you want something very cheap with lots of functions this might be it but you wont get much quality with it, just go to walmart n get there cheapest cuz thats what this brand is.. hope this helps someone.
