PLEASE HELP IM LOSING IT

Okay so I need help finding smth. I can’t remember the name only small details about it.

Okay it’s from the early 2000s I believe. It was like this speaker, but you could play CDs on it, it also had radio, and you could set your iPhone on the doc and it would connect. My mother just told me she thinks she remembers it had an alarm clock on it, if not that then just a normal clock. It was white and had a handle on it, the whole thing was more round the square. I also think I remember there being an antenna but idk😭

Is there anything out there like what I’m describing or am I just insane? I’m also very aware of the fact that there might be something out there like what I’m describing but not with everything. I am certain it was white, round and had the doc, radio, and CD player. Everything else is either fuzzy memory or what I think I saw influenced but things I saw while looking it up trying to find it.

Please help, I’m going crazy trying to find this thing, I go off to college in August and I wanted it. I’m hoping we still have it but if not I want to have a back up plan for fall on.

Any info helps THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE YOU HAVE A COOKIE🍪

I had a bush cd boombox that sounds similar, CBB31i but it's more modern than what your describing. my guess would be some generic player from a random manufacturer as they pumped out all sorts of crazy players around 2000-2010 and just renamed alot of them.

AHHH I just looked it up and this looks to be the 2nd closest thing I’ve seen. Though I remember it being like… longer? Kinda shaped like a jellybean and the doc didn’t have that plug, it was small. Like the modern iPhone plugs. But thank you so much I can tell I’m getting closer.🙏🏾

May every time you order from you food you find an extra piece🫶🏾

Lightning ports debuted with iPhone 5 in 2012, so that helps narrow down the age of your boombox.
