Customer Reviews

Great if you can live with the bright light and clicky buttons
As with our other Pure DAB radio (Pure One)the reception, sound quality and functions such as the ability to pause and pre-programme to record to SD card are fantastic.
Be warned however that the performance as a clock radio is likely to disappoint some. As others have stated the glow from the display, even on the lowest setting, still lights the room and we certainly couldn't sleep with this. The only option is to set the display so that is switches off completely on standby. Whilst this does the trick you are unable to see the time during the night without hitting the 'light up' button.
The other frustrating point is the noisy, 'clicky' buttons. Sounds picky I know, but this is a problem when you set the alarm while your partner is already asleep. The alarm setting proceedure is also quite lengthy, albeit easy, if you are changing the time - at least a dozen depressions. As it happens after 3 months the Bug developed a screen & software fault and has just today been replaced with the much cheaper Pure Siesta which is very small, sounds great, has silent buttons and best of all a light sensor which dims / brightens the display to the sort of level you would expect. Why didn't they do this on the Bug?!

GREAT DESK RADIO & VERY NEARLY THE PERFECT BEDSIDE RADIO.
HAVING USED A BUG2 AS MY DESK RADIO FOR OVER 12 MONTHS I WAS SO PLEASED WITH THE EASE OF USE RADIO CLARITY & BUILD QUALITY I DECIDED TO PURCHASE ANOTHER ONE FOR MY BEDSIDE USE AS IT HAS ALL THE FUNCTIONS I NEEDED, ALARM, SLEEP TIMER & SNOOZE & ALSO WITH ITS WIDE HEAVY BASE ITS VERY STABLE & THEREFOUR HARD TO KNOCK OF THE TABLE WHILST GROPING FOR THE SNOOZE BUTTON IN THE MORNING, ONE BIG PROBLEM (I really wish I had read these reveiws before getting one for the bedroom) THE LOWEST LIGHT SETTING IS FAR TO BRIGHT SO ITS EITHER BATHING THE ROOM IN A WEIRD BLUE LIGHT OR ON THE NEXT BEST SETTING COMPLETELY OFF & UNREADABLE, I AM GOING TO EXPERIMENT WITH CAR WINDOW FILM TINT OFFCUTS TO TRY & MAKE IT USEABLE AS I DONT GIVE UP THAT EASILY BUT REALLY WISH THEY HAD A LOWER LIGHT SETTING AS STANDARD.

Pure Bad Luck
I was absolutely delighted with my Bug Too for a month....
Then it started to malfunction.

Standby started to not work sporadically.
It would lose the time setting making it impossible to set timer.
It would freeze up at start up with the message "tuning.

I appealed for some goodwill from Pure suggesting they
should pay the postage and send me a new one, but no luck.
The Warranty clearly states "return to base".

Not much Xmas goodwill from them.
