Really good quality cassette recorder
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good quality cassette recorder. Originally I was looking for radio shack cassette recorder, unfortunately they're going out of business. A fellow that worked at RadioShack suggested that I get the Jenson ,and to get it at Best Buy. I had searched on Amazon for good reliable tape recorders earlier. I was shocked! They were very expensive. Many over $100. And without any warranty. And with poor reviews. So, I felt lucky to be able to chat with that former RadioShack employee. And I called a Best Buy. I ordered the cassette recorder online. The customer service rep was very helpful. He answered all my questions. And did so with a pleasant demeanor. The cassette recorder we ship by mail. It arrived promptly. It was well packaged. I've been using it continually since. I also purchased the two year warranty. I like the idea that the geek squad, would come by and fix or replace it if it malfunctioned. Two years is a long Time. And honestly, I use it a lot. So far I'm very satisfied. It comes with Mike. Which I use.

Decent quality, buttons auto stop constantly
|Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got it to convert some of my Spotify songs into cassettes. It does the job considering the fact that I also got lower quality tapes. The issue is that because of the fact that it has an auto-stop feature, it will randomly stop while recording and playing so I have to hold down the button to get a clear recording. It might be because I got cheap tapes or because I have a defective one. But I’m not using it to actually play the cassettes so it’s fine for now.

Jensen cassette recorder
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed to replace my hand-held cassette recorders. Nobody makes them any more. I purchased 2 Jensen desktop recorders. This was the best I could do. The recorders work, but they don't fit into my coat pocket. the Best Buy price was more than on Amazon. I asked for a refund of the difference. At first, Best Buy was only willing to refund the difference on one product. I convinced them to refund the difference on both products (I bought 2 recorders). I couldn't reach Best Buy by telephone. I had to use the chat service on the website.
