While this is a great product, this is definitely a luxury product. You have to accept that you are paying a premium for what is basically just a very nice radio. For 1/3 of the money you could get a generic clock radio and have a slightly worse but similar listening experience. That being said, there is value in the extra dollars here in both the construction (very sturdy) and design (simple controls are a boon for those with poor eyesight/dexterity/etc..) that can make this worth the premium price.
If you are looking for a radio that doubles as a room piece, you wouldn't go wrong with this as long as you're willing to pay for that privilege.
The Good
I found the WR-15BK to be aesthetically pleasing and the fit and finish on my unit appears to be perfect. FM reception is selective and no drift was experienced. The controls are solid and well-designed for their functions. I'm particularly fond of the geared tuning dial which is well-regulated and accurate to the display frequencies. To my ear, the sound is warm and full while providing plenty of volume. I am really impressed with the sound rendition for such a small form-factor device. The highs are crisp without sounding tinny and and the lows are pretty full - remarkably so for a single 3-inch speaker.
The In-between
I have not cracked the case to determine if the radio is using Superheterodyne or Digital Signal Processing, but I suspect that it is the latter. When tuning away from very strong FM stations, I can hear the unit briefly step off of the signal and reacquire. Once I dial a little further away, the signal totally drops as opposed to fading-out. My guess is that most listeners will simply find that there is no appreciable drift and that stations are easier to tune. However, individuals attempting to DX or catch weak signals in-between two strong stations would probably have a lot of difficulty.
The Bad
The AM reception leaves much to be desired. I compared Sangean's SR-35 pocket radio to the WR-15 since I was only catching a couple of decent signals on the AM band. The pocket radio easily pulled a half-dozen good stations. If you are planning on listening to much in the way of AM programming, I would look for a different tuner.
Since I'll be tuned to FM at the office when its on, the radio does not require much space, sounds great, and matches my desk accessories, I'm very pleased with the purchase.

This radio is not too big to put on the counter, yet big enough to make a statement. That sounds surprisingly, very good, even when listening to AM.
There is no static on the AM stations!! it has a retro look that I like very much. And everyone that enters my brand new kitchen mentions my radio. I would definitely recommend this product for both quality and sound.
