Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Great compact CD player!
I purchased this boombox in order to have some music in my home gym and I didn't want to spend a great deal of money as I already had an expensive Sony Stereo system as well a Pioneer Elite Home theater system in my home . Although it is a compact unit and the speakers are rather small the CD player does reproduce decent sound quality. The A/C power cord is removable and plugs into the back which is a nice feature. Its light weight and the handle, which folds flat, makes it very easy to carry. The cassette tape door also opens and closes smoothly. I would have given the unit an overall FOUR star rating if it had not been for the fact that the push buttons for the various functions although marked are not high lighted in white which makes it very difficult to determine the function of each button even while wearing eye glasses.

Great sound, economical price, versatile !
My husband and I wanted a Cassette player and were delighted to find this GPX Boombox. We were sure that cassette players were no longer made! This is perfect, and at a reasonable price. Delivery was speedy. The combination of versatile features -- CD and Cassette player and AM/FM Radio -- means we can listen to different sources of music and news. The Boombox is lightweight and the handle makes moving it from room to room very easy. The choice of power source also is convenient. I used glow-in-the-dark tape and a marker to label the control buttons. All in all, a great purchase.

Lots of options in one boombox
This product plays CDs, cassettes and has a radio. It reminds me of an older type of boombox that has all of those capabilities. It is a bit hard to read the buttons, but once you know where they are, that works.

GPX CD/Cassette Boom Box AM/FM Radio.
I recently purchased the GPX Bom Box so I could play my old Pink Floyd Cassettes. This did the trick for me. I don't listen to a radio at home.

Simple but wonderful!
I needed a small, lightweight radio/cassette/cd player as a gift. It had to be easy to operate. This product covered all those bases. The sound is decent all things considered.

Does boombox have an electrical cord or is it solely battery operated?
Yes it has an electrical cord for 120 VAC which is how I ALWAYS run mine. Assume this would use up battery VERY quickly. Run mine in my car using an inverter.
