Review: Goodmans GCR1872

Posted on February 26, 2010 by admin

I thought I would write a little review for the iPod dock/alarm clock I got for Christmas, hope this helps!

The Goodmans GCR1872 iPod Dock Alarm clock is a small stylish device which which has 2 handy alarm timings, includes a FM radio and also Aux input and output.

The alarm clock function allows for 3 types – iPod (plays iPod), Buzzer and FM Radio and the display panel also includes many brightness levels.

The sound quality is pretty good considering it only has 2 x 3W small speakers.

While I liked the Goodmans GCR1872 iPod Dock Alarm Clock I recently had to return it because the iPod connector came away from the main circuit board.

A lot of the problem I found with this product us the iPod Tocuh (Gen 1) didn’t properly clip into the mount, so I either had to not use a mount of have the iPod Touch mount improperly fitted, which probably lead to extra strain on the dock connector.

Unfortunately because this cost me £39.99 and it broke in less than 2 months, I have to recommend you avoid this product as it seems like it is poorly built in places and is not long lasting with long term use… which is a shame for such a nice compact little gadget.
