Greetings,

My parents are after a hifi system for their kitchen, I've tried to find one that meets their needs but can't find one!

They need/want -
CD player
DAB
Small footprint not to take up too much room, having separate speakers is a good thing for this.
Max £100

That's all they want but I can't find one! There's a Panasonic one that's wall mountable but it gets rally bad reviews on Amazon so that's gone.

Does anyone know of one?

I have this Panasonic, Sounds good, has all your requirements and has an AUX input for an iPods or similar. I paid £150 a couple of years back but I'm sure I saw it for under £100. It may have been superseded by a new model by now.

I bought SWMBO a simple DAB/CD boombox from Comet, she loves it. She can listen to the cricket without interruptions and play her CDs.

£100 will not buy HiFi! Do your parents really want a HiFi for the kitchen, or do you?

A quick search on Amazon only revealed one item with a one star review and that was for a poor photo of the product. Which item are you referring to?

Hiya, it's this one link

it ticks all the boxes, but it gets such bad reviews I'm avoiding it!

Others on the list are the Wharfedale one in the Argos book (can't find it on their website) and a Sony one with a tapedeck (again, in the Argos book).
