    portable CD player review

    My twenty-year-old portable C D player gave out and was needing new batteries constantly. I was S-O-O-O fortunate to find this player at Best Buy. It works perfectly and now I can have my music when I power walk early in the morning. Can always count on Best Buy to meet all our electronic needs.

    This is an inexpensive, small portable CD player. It is small enough to fit on the bedside table in the hospital, easy to move. It is nothing fancy but it gets the job done

    Good quality sound with ear phones & with stereo. However, the CD player did not come with a power cord, and it eats batteries VERY frequently. Please send a power cord with this unit.

    No 5V power supply?

    We bought this because our in-dash car player failed. It performs very well, does not skip, controls are easy to use. But it uses a 5V power supply (barrel connection!??) if you don't want to use batteries and that is not included. Why not USB? It seems to be fairly efficient with batteries. Use it if you have no other options.

    Batteries do not last very long. Also, can not find an ac/dc adapter for the player. I think when an electronic item is sold it should have info on the accessories. I.e. adapter for wall plug in!
