I can't say anything good about ccrane
I had one of their top battery chargers and it melted and almost burned down
my house and when I emailed to tell them all they did was offer to sell me a
new one at full price
no concern over the safety issue involved.

I will never buy from them again

When the display went bad in my original AM-FM CCRadio (out of
warranty, made by Sangean), the store paid one way shipping and fixed
the display for $25. I still buy from them.

The CCrane store doesn't manufacture the Sangean radios, but will fix
them for what appears to be the going shop rate. If your radio keeps
crashing, get another brand, for pete's sake,

I bought a Sangean ATS909 from them and stored it after trying it out,
after 9 months I put a full set of batteries in it and it would not
work at all. Sent it back to Crane and was charged $ 37.00 and I
was sent a different radio, ( I know because I had marked the case
slightly} I tested it again and every thing worked fine.
After 1 year I again tried the radio with new batteries and guess
what ? the radio did not work properly, the sound was very distorted
and when I talked to the people at Crane I was told it would cost at
least $ 89.00 for a new speaker this for a radio that cost #289.00.
I checked the radio out with earphones and the sound was fine
so I am hedging my bets and packing the radio with a good set of
headphones.
