Hi.

Although they do have a reasonable selection in my opinion, their prices are nothing to shout about. I always look at products in retail stores then buy them online. Play are doing the pure move at £89.99 at the moment, though I haven't checked other websites for more competitive pricing.

All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Carol

I take my Pure Move everywhere when I travel.  I think
it's a great little radio to be honest, and FM is really
good too.  In fact, if I go somewhere and the hotel
doesn't permit a good DAB signal, I find FM pretty handy
just to have something on.
As for John Lewis, enjoy yourselves in there, it's a
favourite pastime of mine to go looking at their radio
selection.  And I hope you love the Dulit as much as I
do, it's one of my best purchases ever.
As for updating the Move, I've never done so, nor would
really ever want to.  To be honest, I think you might
need sighted assistance to see the screen prompts, but
this is just a guess, it might not be factual.
Enjoy, you lucky girl!! (smiles).

As I mentioned to Paul, I read your write-up very soon
afterwards and discovered you'd told me.

You may want to answer the question I've asked Paul about
the reception you've got when you've been out and about
with it, please.
We're also wondering if there have been any upgrades, for
which you've needed to use the USB socket.  If you've
upgraded, how did you find the process?

We're definitely getting a radio soon and are just
working through our options now.

We intend to go and have a play around at John Lewis too
in the next week - and then decide!  I have a feeling
that we'll end up with the Pure Move for out and about
and the Dualit Kitchen for home!  <Smiles>

Hi Carol

Not Tris, but he won't mind! (smile).

Basically, the Pure Move has what you call a preset
button.  You press

this, then use your left or right arrow of the joystick
to move between those you have set.
It always defaults to number one when you go into it, so
you just jog right once to reach Radio Two if that's
what you've set preset two as.
I hope this is making sense, but come back to me if you
want a further

breakdown of how it works.

Tris,

Looking back on this thread, are you saying the Pure
Move doesn't have

preset buttons, or just a few?

I also have a Pure Move and its reception is really
quite good and better certainly than my Evoke 3.  The
downside of the Move from a "blind perspective" will be
its lack of direct preset buttons which means it is
somewhat more reliant on its display.  I would suggest
people try it with a friendly local retailer before
committing to it The Move does not take dry batteries
but has an internal recharable that seems to hold rharge
quite well.
The nearest radio in size to the Move that I have seen
if the Roberts

Ecologic 2 (which I think is a renamed version of
something that I saw

earlier this year) which will take dry batteries and
has direct preset

buttons.
