    When I needed a boombox they had one and it works perfectly fine. It helped me in a time of need I’m happy with the purchase.

    Got this for my mom cause she still has cds and cassettes and struggles with new tech. The sound is what you’d expect out of a small boom box. There are portable speakers with better sound. I would range this from a $20-$60 portable speaker sound. Haven’t tried the Bluetooth so I can’t help much with that part. It’s something you’d find in a garage or stockroom.

    Brought back great memories of tapes and AM/FM. If you shave any tapes it’s great.

    Old school radio. It works like advertised but isn't really high tech. Exactly what I wanted in my woodshop.

    This is a fairly good boombox, but the instructions for getting it to do a continuous play of a CD are nonextistent. I have managed to get it to do that by accident and have not figured out how I did it!

    Got this for our daughter who is in the "retro" phase of teenage years. Works better and costs less than when we used them as kids 40 years ago. Lots more features for a lot less cost (inflation adjusted of course).

    This thing is great and does exactly what it says it will do. It's better than the "boom boxes" of old, which were harder to turn off completely.

    Works okay but not quality sound for this boombox. I would rate this boombox on the low end, not good. I would also not get this brand but look for better quality and definitely different brand.

      Hello Insignia Customer, thank you for sharing your experience with the Insignia AM/FM Radio Portable CD Boombox with Bluetooth. I’m really sorry to hear that the sound quality didn’t meet your expectations and that the overall performance felt low‑end to you. It’s disappointing when a product doesn’t deliver the audio experience you were hoping for, and we understand how that can lead to frustration, especially when it affects your confidence in the brand. We truly appreciate you taking the time to let us know about this. Sudeep | Insignia BBY-ExBrand_Insignia

    It's fine for the price, I guess.

    I'm not going to take or add stars based on the cassette deck, since it's the same mechanism that's in literally every modern tape deck, there's not too much BB can do, and it would be ridiculous to expect a magnetic erase head. THAT SAID. This thing doesn't sound good. I didn't really expect it to, but it's more muffled and muted than even my low expectations. The distortion is nuts even at moderate volumes, but you wouldn't want to listen to it that loud anyway, because the CD player just sounds bad, and Bluetooth even worse. What's a midrange? It did what it needed to do, not particularly well, and now lives in my daughter's room as a nighttime CD player until we get her a better one, probably a used one because I can find something that was built to last.

    There are two issues with the Insignia Boombox. First, it is very hard to see the functions of the buttons, as they are the same color as the whole unit. Second, the programing of the station presets is overly complicated. If you can live with those, the boombox is OK.

    Complete junk! Volume is awful, and buttons only sometimes work. The cassette player might as well not be there because after trying 10+ times to open it, it randomly opened. 0 out of 5 stars.
