Customer Ratings & Reviews

An amazing turntable for someone who's just getting into the hobby! Easy to set up, sounds great, and is affordable without cutting costs!. Would highly recommend to anyone who is starting their vinyl journey and is on a budget. I do suggest, however, that you read up on properly setting up the counterweight, although the manual also goes into pretty good detail.

So what I upgraded from is that suitcase record player on the left of the Insignia turntable in the center. Exactly one year ago today I started my vinyl collection and bought that portable record player loving my new hobby. What I didn’t realize was that not only was I cheating myself out of audio quality, but also hours of stress trying to understand why new or unscratched albums would continue to skip over and over. The Insignia turntable may be a budget player, however it sounds phenomenal with my bookshelf speakers and is by far the most inexpensive turntable to have a counterweight and anti skate. I would highly recommend this turntable for anyone that doesn’t need a $500 record player or usb function to rip your albums. If you are looking for a great budget turntable this is it!

This is a great budget-friendly turntable that has everything someone needs to begin their record journey. It's kitted with an Audio-Technica ATN3600L which has run me zero problems in the past 5 months of spinning. the tracking on this is also great since it is light, compared to other cheap turntables that can tear up your records. It also has a very capable Bluetooth system that has great quality but a noticeable delay, and RCA cables for external speakers. I'm using the Insignia branded Powered Bookshelf Speakers and the quality from the turntable is excellent. It doesn't have a 78-speed option, but other than that the motor on this is great. It's quiet enough that you can't hear it from a foot or two away. The included belt has had zero issues either. The mat included is also excellent for keeping records clean and scratch-free during use; lots of other budget "turntables" use a wholesale component that has a poor quality and can hurt your record. This has a high-quality metal tray with the felt mat on top to prevent scratches and provide high-quality sound. Overall this is a great turntable for anyone looking to get into the hobby! I would strongly recommend this item over other budget turntables.

Plays great, manually adjustable, and has flexible output options. I was originally going to go with an automatic audiotechnica table, but went with this one because enthusiasts recommended a manual table with not control like this. It still has all the features I really wanted and at a much lower price ($90 on sale). The feet have springs to help isolate the turn table from external vibrations, and it's got a nice heavy, well built feeling to it. Bluetooth, headphone, and normal analog audio output are all options. The only thing I don't like is that the felt mat leaves fuzzies on the side of the record that's laying against it. Not sure if that'll affect the playback or the needle, etc over time.

I upgraded from a suitcase record player to this, and my albums really do sound much better with now! Also - I really wanted a Bluetooth turntable with the option to directly connection headphones - without having to have speakers or any other component hooked up - and this offers these options where I found many other turntables do NOT have a direct headphone jack. So I have the freedom to only plug in this turntable and use either my headphones or Bluetooth speaker. The only issue I’m having is when I connect my headphones, it still automatically connects to my Bluetooth speaker where it plays through that AND through the headphones at the same time. I either have to turn the volume all the way down on the speaker (every time) or unplug it, but not a dealbreaker.

You really can't ask for more at this price point. Bluetooth output, a bent tonearm with adjustable anti-skate and counterweight, an aluminum platter... the list goes on. It even includes RCA cables and an extra belt for the platter. This does require a bit of familiarity with turntables in order to operate correctly (definitely not a "first time" machine) but if you are used to traditional turntables and setups, you shouldn't have any problems. For everyone else, just read the manual carefully, and you should be good to go. Highly recommended!

Note : The slipmat seen in my photo is not the one it came with. This turntable is amazing. The Sound quality is excellent. I love that it has a headphone jack. I can listen to my explicit records without my room-mate's 7 year old grand kid hearing it. Also, there is just something special about listening to a vinyl record through headphones. You can really hear a lot more than you can with just speakers. It was very easy to set up. And it looks like it was actually manufactured for Best Buy's "Insignia" brand by Audio Technica, based off the fact Audio Technica's logo is literally on the needle cartridge. I've always wanted one of their record players and it looks like I may have gotten one disguised as an Insignia. I really love this turntable and for 130 dollars, it's a great value

Affordable and easy to use with a Bluetooth device whether it be headphones, speakers, soundbars it works flawlessly. Easy setup with a easy to read manual. I enjoy using it

Pleasantly surprised with the quality of this turntable. Sounds fantastic and is easy to setup. Great price makes this a great buy.

After doing some research for a while on a turntable I came across a YouTube review for this one. It was great video, and the reviewer was impressed. Looked up what users thought on forums and decided to go for it. After fiddling with the counterweight for a bit it runs perfect. I have it plugged into an old Sony system that I like the sound of, but I'm intending to upgrade to something better eventually. And the Bluetooth works great. Not something I'll use all the time, but it's nice to have. I'm just starting my vinyl collection, and I'm excited to play everything on this turntable

I purchased this for my boyfriend as a gift and he rarely turns it off! This turntable is incredibly easy to set up and use and we have not had any issues so far with it. This is an amazing, high quality birthday gift and I highly recommend. The only thing you have to make sure before purchasing is that it has no built in speakers, so you have to either have speakers or Bluetooth headphones.

I've been thoroughly impressed with this turntable! The speed controls (33 1/3 and 45 RPM) are precise and easy to switch between, allowing my records to play smoothly without any pitch fluctuations. The sound quality is fantastic for this price point—crisp, rich, and full. Setting up the Bluetooth connection to external speakers was seamless, but it's great having the option for a direct wired connection as well. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable, great-sounding record player!

I love this turntable! This truly is a fantastic entry level turntable as unlike other entry level models you get an adjustable counterweight, anti skate, and an upgradable stylus. There is also an optical sensor that helps maintain the proper motor speed. The turntable is not automatic but does have an auto stop feature which stops the spinning when the stylus hits the end of the record. This means no worries about wearing down your stylus if you forget to stop the table (or fall asleep while listening!). The built in phono amp means you don’t need a preamp to connect to powered speakers. But if you have the equipment, you can switch to line out and connect to an external preamp. The headphone jack is great for private listening and Bluetooth capability is nice to have, but nothing beats the analog experience. Aesthetically, the table looks great. The smoked dust over looks very 70’s. It comes with an AT3600 conical stylus. The headshell is not removable but you can replace/upgrade the cartridge. It comes with an extra belt as well which is a nice touch. Toss the felt mat though and get an acrylic one. The felt attracts dust and static! I have this connected to a pair of Edifier powered speakers and it sounds great! As someone who is just getting into records I find this suits my needs perfectly! I like it so much that I purchased one for a relative who is also just getting into records.

Perfect for casual listening of my records, this is the one I use now when I need music company for the household duties. Bluetooth works smoothly, didn't try yet the rca cables or the headphones, I paid a little more money for it than for a crappy portable one and I'm surprised with the quality of the sound.

This turntable may not be the best audio quality, but for an amateur coming from a suitcase player, it is great quality at a great price. I paired it with the Insignia 2.1 Speaker System and they paired over Bluetooth automatically. The turntable is great, though I would highly recommend you also purchase a record cleaning kit. The Big Fudge kit with the needle cleaning gel is a lifesaver.

I love my new turntable. It was very easy to set up and use. The sound quality is way better than the old all in one unit I was using before. I am very happy with my purchase.

Very happy with purchase. Sounds great, connects to my speaker with Bluetooth easily and looks nice too. Great product!

Easy to set up the Bluetooth the weights takes up very little space low profile good quality sound

Very sturdy turntable, handles every record very well. The sound is really good, no skips, distortions or noise.

Loving my new turntable. Have been using a lesser quality, multi-functional device including turntable that just didn't provide the same experience. This was easy to set up and attach to my bluetooth speakers. Now, I am truly loving my classic rock vinyls once again!
