Need advice/suggestions on easy-to-use, table-top cd player-radio for 90 yr. old friend

[japple]

who has some visual and finger-tip agility issues. I have a label-maker and can help with identifying the control knobs. She loves music and I hope this will help relieve the boredom she has been having since moving into assisted living residence. It would be great if she could pick up local am-fm stations--the simpler, the better. Doesn't need remote control, USB dock, MP3, clock radio. Pref. price range $30-$100.00.

I have googled just about every search term I can think and read 100s of reviews on amazon.com, but haven't come up with much.

1. A friend gave me one like this for my Mom

It's got CD, radio and turntable. Nice oak cabinet. Looks a lot like this one:

I'm not sure if it's the same brand, just very much like it. They sell similar ones that add bluetooth, USB, etc. for less.

Here are those: http://www.amazon.com/Innovative-Technology-ITVS-200B-Nostalgic-Entertainment/dp/B00NQL8Z16/ref=lp_3003611_1_5?s=aht&ie=UTF8&qid=1449113396&sr=1-5

2. Those are very nice units. She doesn't need turntable and it needs to be small as she

doesn't have much space in her room. I might just get one for myself, though! Thanks for posting.

I have had good luck with Sony products. I have a Sony CD/radio/cassette (from the early 2000s) and a Sony clock radio (from the early 1990s). Both of these products work great and are very easy to operate. However, I have not purchased a new Sony product since 2001. The product reviews for the above listed new Sony products are mostly good. However, I would keep all receipts, register the warranty cards and be prepared to return your purchase.

Two years ago, I purchased a clock radio/CD player for my son. It was an unknown (to me) brand and I have found it very difficult to operate. It is all digital and not at all intuitive. There are buttons with cryptic labels and the manual is almost useless. I cannot figure out how to set the time or alarms. The manual is the badly translated into English type.

Perhaps you could find a simple, easy to operate radio/CD player at a local yard or garage sale.
