    The box works well but some better instruction on how to operate and wish the buttons were easier to use. Has pretty good sound.

    It is OK, but too tinny and punchy. Great for outdoors but too loud for indoors.

    Easy to use and set up. Got it for my dad who is vision impaired and somewhat hard of hearing and has books on CD I am hoping he can listen to. The volume doesn't go very high, unfortunately. Wish it could pair via its bluetooth to his cochlear implant, but the bluetooth only works one waay, as music source, not output.

    Bought the predecessor to this boom box 40 years ago. Not much has changed in its design since. It is a steady reliable machine which produces good sound for my "older" collection of music. I am satisfied!

    I bought this to replace an old Panasonic Radio/Cassette player as the Cassette part had gone bad. First, the sound quality was a bit disappointing regardless of input. However plugging in my old Bose computer speakers to the headphone socket fixed that. Both CD's and Radio sound much better now. However, the cassette player still sounds flat with both commercial and personally recorded cassettes - might be a head alignment issue? Autostop when forward or rewinding, or when the tape reaches the end of the side only works sometimes, so to prevent damage to the player, you need to monitor it manually. Adding preset radio stations is a bit annoying - not very intuitive, and when switching to radio from another source, it doesn't always work. I often have to turn the player on and off again. It's easy to knock the CD cover (when a CD is playing) and this opens the lid, stopping playback and resetting the track back to 1. Bluetooth seems to work OK. Haven't tried the aux input, but with the weak speakers, there wouldn't be much point. In summary, works well enough for my purposes, so I guess it's good value for money.

    Cheap Boom Box

    It's a cheap piece of overseas manufactured junk....but if you were expecting more, then you should have paid more money. I'm happy. It does what I need it to do....play CD's while I'm working on the computer in a remote section of the house, to far away from the high dollar surround sound. The buttons are a little stiff. I find myself grabbing the top to keep it from sliding when I push the buttons but then the CD top pops open. OK...so I've worked that out. If you are looking to not spend a lot of money for a boom box...than this is a good choice.

    I Was looking for something my husband could use to play all his old cassette tapes. That’s it. & that’s exactly what I got. Works great. Very functional & meets the need. However, We Realized after using it, that it would be nice if He could record the tape to digital through a USB or auxiliary plug; There are no other inputs on this device. But I wasn’t Looking for it originally so not the products fault.

    Control buttons too small and get stuck

    I like the size and design of this radio. However it is frustrating to operate and I would like to return/ exchange it. I bought it online. If I had seen it in person I would not have made the purchase. The reason it’s frustrating to operate is because the control buttons are so small and get stuck so they don’t operate smoothly.

    Keeping it simple

    The product has proven itself very worthy to me after a month. Trying to purge my home of old and unused possessions, I was about ready to toss a huge number of old cassette tapes, then I thought that I should at least take another listen for recordings that I will not seek through other media. So I thought to buy an inexpensive boombox for the task, and that task has turned out to be a real pleasure, reminding me that quality music does not grow old. And this is just much easier than converting to another form which was my firat thought. It has been a good move.

    Good quality boombox with all the nostalgic features and playback. Powers up and down without any flaws, it’s lightweight and has a battery option for running while camping or sitting out on the porch or a beach. It’s much more lightweight and portable than my large Bluetooth (only connection) speaker and this also has way more playback choices and is my go to playback device for breaking out all my old cassettes and cds. It’s very affordable especially considering all the functionality this device has.
