The radio comes with a European plug and the plug cost 40 pounds to get it in type g so I sent back. Wish it were a bit clearer.
Love this radio. Good sound quality, relatively good dab/fm coverage in our area. Love the Bluetooth. Haven’t really taken it to too many building sites as I think it is still too nice to get thrown around, but in the garage, around the house and outdoors it’s great. Battery life (5ah batteries) pretty good, probably a full day on medium volume. Nice bit of kit.
Great sound bass not so good on reception needs aerial with dab can get away from rubbish in charts
Use it around the house,
And with equaliser features
Can be fine adjusted to whatever type of music you listen to,
Just great.
Everything you would expect from a heavy duty site radio. Sound quality is brilliant. Effortlessly fills this 16 metre X 50 metre workshop at half volume. Easy to use and does what it’s supposed to do.
10 hours straight at two thirds volume (with the loudness ON) out of a fully charged 18V 5.0 Ah BL1850B Makita battery (not included, you’re gonna need batteries and a charger)
When it was working it was perfect. However after a little more than 3 months. It won’t turn on with adapter or battery. I now have to send it back via makita for repair. Not great considering price.
Amendments made. Fixed via makita free of charge. So far so good. Hopefully it will continue to work.
Can only give 1 star because of this issue.
I brought this as a up grade from old makita radio
The sound is fantastic on this model
And a great plus u can charge your phone etc via USB connecto
Bought this for my husband as a gift as we had bought one for our son. The sound quality is incredible. Bit dubious about ordering it as it was 90 cheaper than a well known trade seller but it didn’t not dissapoint and is the exact same model. Happy husband and happy wife as he’s in the garage more out of my hair 😉
Live this and I use in greenhouse and poly tunnel. In house reception can be hit and miss for Magic which is why I bought it; for that station however we live in middle of nowhere so I have no complaints and recommend it.
I believed that all new makita site radios charged batteries in 80mins,this item DOES NOT. Ther is no place internally to store the ac plug or phone, bit disappointing. Even with sound adjusted down the bass levels are very high. The rubber buttons on the front don’t feel durable for the test of time. Very thin material to depress the tactile switch behind. Very nice to look at tho. Nice display.good reception. Hope this is helpful. I paid 144
Brilliant product great sound, looks great and easy to use
Wow! So much better than I expected and at a really competitive price. First off it sounds great and can do the deep bass without any vibration. We have a couple of Bose speakers and this maybe better for overall big sound. It uses the regular drill/ grinder/ regular Makita tools’ batteries so is easy to charge and packs a punch. The DAB quality is great as you’d expect and the Bluetooth is a great and quickly connected to my phone. It actually lights up and the dial changes colour as you cycle through the menu options, which Idid not expect from a site radio. The build quality is substantial, much heavier than I thought it would be. It’s robust and would take some knocks I’m sure. It comes with a mains lead which I won’t need and has a USB charging port which means your phone’s Bluetooth will never let you down. Can you guess, I really like this radio!
Very good having the DAB option saves no end of time. The sound is excellent and very rich, having the equaliser is also a good feature and not just a gimmick. The aerial in the handle works well. The only negative comment is the transformer cannot be stored inside the unit. Very pleased with the purchase, wished I had bought one years ago.
Another great Makita product, the sound quality is superb and can easily fill the work area with sound, very easy to set up and work, constructed to last, very impressed and well please.
Would highly recommend.
It’s a Makita Site Radio. No need for more fancy words. It works great with the Bluetooth enabled devices, it’s sturdy, the sound is great.
I’ve had makita radios for a number of years but this 1 Is the best so far… lots of bass and you can change the sound quality, rock, pop, classic, etc
Put off buying one for years but a recent job outside in February with my little fm/am radio struggling to pick up any station worth listening to, even for short periods, made me take the plunge. DAB….what can you say? Better choice of stations and music. Not necessarily bombarded with lecturing news and advertising. And no interference! Crystal clear sound. Not as small and certainly not as light as my little Sony or Roberts radio, much more expensive, but station choice and clarity wins . I only use it on jobs where I am one place for the day really. Have used a 4.0ah Makita battery for two days at work on medium volume level. Don’t bother with copy batteries. I have a cheap 6.0ah battery which routinely lasts about 3 hours at the most.
Bought gor the OH for work. Charges his battery while mains connected, and his phone. Amazing sound quality. Excellent reception on DAB and FM. Easy to use. Well worth the money.
Utilis sous toutes les mto, vraiment indispensable pour mon activit de coach.
Brilliant radio. Looks so good too. Easy to use. Strong and sturdy. The sound and bass on it is something else. Very impressed.
Es gibt nichts zu meckern. Alles Ok. Kann ich nur weiter empfehlen. Mein Wunsch an die Makita Ingenieure dazu noch eine kleine Fernbedienung fr laut und leise. Das wrs.
Tolle Qualitt. Makita halt. Sehr schnes Design. Steht bei uns im Wohnzimmer. Ton ist super allerdings sollte man wissen, das dieser sehr Bass Lastig ist.
Ich suchte ein Bauradio mit gutem Klang. Da ich nicht wirklich etwas preiswerteres und simpler es gefunden habe und ich eh schon einige Makita Produkte besitze, habe ich mich fr dieses Produkt entschieden.( Die lteren Gerte haben mich vom Klang Erlebnis nicht berzeugt)
Positiv:
+ ausgepackt erster Eindruck war ein Wow Effekt. Sehr edel und massiv gebaut.Schwer und standhaft. Genau richtig fr meine baustellen.
+Klang ist zu den Vorgnger Modellen deutlich besser geworden.
+ Bedienung kinderleicht jeder kommt anscheinend sofort damit zurecht.
+ Sehr viele Radiosender DAB+ und FM
+ Die Radioantenne ist im Griff verbaut
+ LED Beleuchtung und einige Infos im Display findee ich toll
Negativ
– Beim suchen im Sendermen wechselt die Anzeige nach kurzer Zeit zum Hauptmen zurck. Sehr nervig.
– Bluetooth-Verbindung bricht nach kurzer Strecke ab oder kommt ins Stocken.
Ich bin mit dem Gert bisher sehr zufrieden.
ber ein “Hilfreich” wrde ich mich sehr freuen Danke euch
Preis Leistung top. Lsst sich schnell mit dem Handy verbinden. Robuste Alternative zu Sound Boxen!
Acquistata da Perinelli Forniture, servizio spedizione express, massima trasparenza con il venditore per gestire l’ordine in una piccola problematica causata dal corriere.
Prodotto di alta qualit, in officina oltre che il suo dovere, fa un bellissimo effetto ottico.
Einfach tolles Gert. Er braucht zwar mehr Akku als mein DMR 102 aber wrde ihn trotzdem sofort weiter empfehlen.
Das was mir nicht so gefllt ist das wenn man es auf akku Betrieb laufen lsst, das es im leisen Modus belst, einen pflegenden ton Ton von sich gibt. Was aber im Netzteil betrieb nicht der Fall ist. Komisch……
Klein, guter Klang, spielt mit 3AH Akku 2 Tage lang. Empfang ok, im Keller wirds dann schwieriger.
It lasts well all day on a charged battery. Its a bit too bassy overall for my taste but you might prefer that. The reception isn’t great in my are so it flicks in and out of sound sometimes but thats not the radios fault. I have the impression that it is super quality built from decent plastic, and will probably last several liftimes. Its dead easy to use. Its alright. Bit big though.
Ein echt tolles Radio ,mit einem satten Sound und guter Tonqualitt. Das Preis- Leistungsverhltnis ist auch sehr gut.
Nicht ganz billig, dafr hat man aber fetten Sound. Das Radio ist klanglich nochmal viel viel besser als das Vorgngermodell. Ich wrde es jeder Zeit wieder kaufe
Das Radio wirkt sehr robust und das Gefhl gibt es einem auch beim Anheben. Die Tonqualitt kann nach dem der Akku leer ist beim Einsetzen des Ersatzakkus beeintrchtigt werden. Dann ist die Lautstrke schon sehr leise.
Beidem Preis htte ich schon von der Technik etwas besseres erwartet. Ansonsten ist es ein sehr gutes Radio.
Mega Ding mit 5ah Akku komm ich ber einen ganzen Arbeitstag, allerdings nicht wenn man echt auf voller Lautstrke hrt was aber dann auch ziemlich laut ist. Je nach Raum kann der Bass auch schon richtig drhnen, was mir bei den kleineren Modellen gefehlt hat. Ich wrde es immer wieder kaufen, Knig aufm Bau damit!
Bosch Akkus passen auch und der Deckel geht dann auch noch zu
Bestes Baustellen Radio wo aufem Markt grad ist ! Kann es nur empfehle
Top Sound mit Mega Bass. Guter DAB+ Empfang. Ist aber ein echter Akkufresser. Ich bin voll zufrieden mit dem Radio und wrde es wieder kaufen.
Ich habe lange berlegt, ob ich mir den Vorgnger oder das aktuelle Modell kaufe, da das Design des neuen doch etwas spacey daherkommt.
Habe mich dann aber doch fr das 115ner entschieden. Das Gert luft ausgezeichnet, Klangqualitt ist ausreichend, ein bisschen basslastig, was sich aber einstellen lsst. Lautstrke reicht fr mich aus.
Super Baustellen Radio,
der Empfang vom Internet Radio ist perfekt.
Ich sage nur Radio Bob
Sound quality is the boxxxxks, Bluetooth is brilliant, don’t have to listen to adverts or discussions just blast out your tunes, keep getting told they can hear it 3 houses up!
Worth every penny, just don’t tell the wife you’ve spent that much on a wireless.
Top zufrieden, tut seinen Dienst einwandfrei. Einziger Kritikpunkt ist die Lautstrke, da wrde noch ein bisschen mehr gehen.
Das Makita ist einfach nur gut, robust, solide, gut ausgestattet und hat eine berragende Tonqualitt.
Bewhrte Makita Qualitt. Habe das Radio bei der Garten Arbeit oft im Einsatz und es funktioniert super. Ordentlicher klang bei mittlerer Lautstrke. Man sollte aber beim ersten Sendersuchlauf im Freien sein um so mglichst viele DAB+ Sender speichern zu knnen.
Robustes Produkt und hat ordentlich Klang/Sound, super Radio, nicht nur fr die Baustelle!!!!
Best sounds quality radio the sounds is amazing good deep bass . Recommended
Work on noisey site. At loud volume 4.0mah 18v battery lasts all day.
It can charge a mobile phone too
Great radio. Sorry I have idea what thickness and sheerness gave to do with a radio
This said… I would still highly recommend this produc
Was smaller than expected but the sound is really good, husband was very pleased
Great radio. Worth paying the extra.
Hope it last as long as my other makita
I purchased this from Howe’s due to the cheaper price and the UK plug being available on that option, it even had free next day delivery so is definitely the better route to go.
The sound quality is very good although it is let down a little by the subwoofer which starts to peak out when the volume is high, however, this is a job site radio and as such the quality will often be a lesser factor due to the ambient work noise. The travel on this system though is great, you can hear it over a large distance with clarity good enough to make out voices if you prefer to listen to radio talk shows over music.
Good solid construction and cleans up well. Admittedly I haven’t given it a hard knock yet or dropped it but the construction feels solid and there’s no loose or rattling noises. It’s been covered in cement, flooring latex, paint and acid. The first 3 cleaned off well without leaving any noticeable marks, the acid did fade out the plastic but it’s industrial grade for cleaning so in all honesty it taking it that well is only a positive as well, had the radio 3 months and the quality hasn’t degraded.
Now to the failing points. While the radio has good DAB, FM and Bluetooth options for choice (as well as aux but I haven’t tested that) it’s lacks both the SD and USB options of its American brother.
The onboard USB provides a great 2.4A max draw but lacks any use for data, which is unfathomable as the US version does have it, not to mention their unit also is capable of charging their batteries when they’re plugged into the mains.
As I can’t have my phone connected to this via Bluetooth due to needing to take calls and have it with me, I’ve had to go the route of purchasing a seperate MP3 player and leaving that permanently connected which is a good work around but could have been easily avoided by giving us the technology they are already selling across the pond.
As mentioned above this unit cannot charge the battery when the unit is plugged into the mains unlike it’s American release but honestly, while it would have been a nice feature it’s not a necessity as you get more than a days worth of use out of a 4.0Ah battery and they’re easily swapped out.
Speakers do seem to be quieter when running from battery rather than mains, not major but the sound does definitely travel far weaker than on mains and you lose some clarity over longer distances.
My only other little niggle, and it is minor; when selecting an equaliser setting each preset has a fixed colour associated with it. The default EQ is Flat which sets the volume knob light to the same lighting in the side strips, however, Rock sets the volume knob light to red but the strip lighting stays the same. Each of the other settings has a it’s own colours, Jazz is blue, Vocal is yellow etc. Even the Custom setting stays as a fixed lime green. While this is minor, it definitely does look out of place with the colouring of the case plastic and the other lights not changing.
All in all its a good solid radio that will last and definitely has the sound quality and travel adequate for a job site radio but there are things that Makita sound address in the future.
Fantastic speaker!
– great range for Bluetooth
– The sub woofer is a great addition (works perfectly until highest 2 volume settings)
– The ‘my eq’ setting is great for adding additional volume without distortion.
– design is compact
– radio antenna is built into the handle but still works when collapsed.
– both 12v and 18v batteries compatible
Cons: power supply doesn’t fit into the unit with a battery attached
Last note:
The new dewalt does sound better but it is much much bigger in size so if your already on the makita battery System and prefer a more compact size the makita is a great option.
Item quality to one side (it is amazing), the speed that it was delivered was smashed by King Tools, estimated 2nd December, received on the 28th November. Thank you for such an unexpected pleasant transaction. 5 stars!
Sound does become a little distort and bassy when turned up loud but still a great listen. Very durable.
Very well thought out for site work, very well thought out in general. Highly recommended. I had the Milwaukee top of the range one, totally un thought about and far too expensive
Just received my radio and what’s not to like? It tuned into the DAB stations with no problems and Bluetooth works fine. The unit looks really stylish and cannot fault the sound for the money. Also came with a standard 3 pin plug which was unexpected after reading some other reviews.

Great clear sound almost too much bass but you can Chang that via settings
Brilliant outside sound really travels. Can’t find flex fm yet! European charger no room to store it anyway so gonna lose it liking the bluetooth overall not bad
What’s not to like ?? It was delivered earlier than expected, sounds and looks great .. only had it a week so cannot comment about how its going to last .. lovely little addition to my makita ki

I bought this as a gift for my brother in law.
I have not heard anything so no news is good news in my eyes.
I did listen to it and the quality was good for this type of radio. It was solid and looked as though it would withstand the vigours of site work.
Excellent site radio. Makita have been making site radios for many years now and they’ve got this one spot on, robust, great depth of sound and fantastic look. The colour screen and LED back lit buttons are a nice addition this time. There’s a very sturdy and well built rubber edging to the radio to protect the front well. I use it in the garden at home and at work
Upgraded from the older model , this is well worth the money , the sound is booming .
