The mounting spacers were not long enough. I had to make my own out of plastic electrical conduit which worked quite nicely.I also had to purchase new longer screws. Unfortunely the screws were metric (I think)& I had a hard time locating them.This was suprising for our kitchen cabinets are only 1 year old. The base boost switch does not boost the base frequencies very much. Why not set the radio at the max base boost & eliminate the switch (and save production costs)?Overall the controls are easy to use and the sound quality is ok for a small radio. Personally I which the sound quality was a little better, but it is adequate. I'm happy with this radio & I would purchase another one.
