    Bought this as a gag gift for a White Elephant Christmas Party. Does anyone listen to CD’s anymore?

    This CD player has great headphones, but I also use it hooked up with my portable wireless speaker. Really good buy for the price.

    This CD player is simple to use. The quality of sound is excellent. The headphones that come with the device are the kind that wraps around the head from ear to ear. The headset is not easily adjustable. I attempted to put another headset into the system but the normal headphone set will not work. The sound is excellent, the headphone set...average

    This small device provides hours of pleasant music and memories for an 80-something relative with growing memory loss. It is wonderful to see smiles and to hear humming along with favorite songs.

    Bought this brand to replace one I had of the same brand. My first purchase lasted for more than several years. Actually broke after falling off a balcony of more than 12 feet high. My replacement was not working in less than 2 weeks of purchase. Would skip and shut off randomly. Purchased mainly to use in my car which did not come with a CD player.

    When you are on those long, boring bus, air or train trips, nothing better to soothe your nerves and get some enjoyment at the same time. All the books I wanted to read are now on audio.

    I usually buy Sony, but decided to try this one. I use it to listen to audio books and when I need to turn it off, it does not keep my place so that when I want to continue listening to the book I have to remember the exact numbers on the screen where I left off. Most inconvenient!! This Insignia Personal model is worthless to me. So sorry I bought it.
