    Great sound and excellent retro look but much smaller and lighter than the vintage ones. Easy Bluetooth pairing.

    I absolutely love this! My dad had the original Boombox that ION is emulating with this and to pack all these features into this Boombox is AMAZING! It is normally $140 and it Plays real Cassettes and you can even play via Bluetooth and it has AM/FM RADIO! I believe you can even record onto blank Cassettes! And I was able to pick this up for $60 the day after Black Friday!

    This is great because it takes me back to my childhood but has modern technology. The lithium battery is charged by the cord so you don't have to buy D cell batteries. The blue tooth is the best feature. We plan on using for picnics and drive in movies. The sound is pretty good but does not blow you away with bass. It is a lot "cooler" way to have a bluetooth portable speaker with some retro style. It also has a usb input.

    I love this product. The sound is wonderful and its so easy to use. I plan to get a lot of use out of this, since I had one that was very much like this one, years ago. I recommend this one if you are looking for a great sound and a high quality item. The look of the product goes very well no matter were I place it.

    Excellent Retro Boombox

    This boombox exceeded my expectations in terms of functionality and ease of use. You can also record with this thing and make your mixtapes like back in the day. Another part that blew me away was how loud this thing can get. Feeling a little 80’s? stick some 9V batteries in it and you’re good to go Like back in the day. If not you can charge it as well and operate it like that for a more modern approach. Overall quality product :)

    My daughter is obsessed with the 80's and she asked for a "boom box" for her birthday. We bought her this radio and she loves it. She has listened to it every day for a month at least. It gets good radio reception, bluetooth pairing is easy, and has a rechargeable batter with usb-port charging. It can also hold 6 D batteries if you want to be retro and broke.

    Fantastic. Takes me back to my childhood in the 80’s when I owned a boom box. Sound is decent, I love that you can digitize tapes onto a usb stick. Just enough tech in this, but the old school flavor. You have to plug it or buy batteries to operate it, just like back into the day, except with Bluetooth!

    Bought this on impulse and nostalgia. Broke out my tapes from my pre/teen days. No issues, didn't eat any of my tapes up. Has Bluetooth and radio also. Not very loud compared to the old school boomboxes of the 80's/90's but a good display piece in any mancave if you don't have an original from back in the days.

    We picked this up to be able to go to the local drive-in movie theater and tune into the movie audio. What we found was this is also a great bluetooth speaker, radio and the cassette deck is actually stereo. Very cool boombox. Everyone who sees it asks where I got it. I would recommend it to anyone.

    Item has a cassette player which was why I purchased it. I have a certain person that still has a huge case full of cassettes and never got to listen to them, now he can. Plus it had all if the Bluetooth technologies to work with current as well.

    Very cool and old school. Sounds great too. It has some of the features we all loved in the past while bringing in a few new ones. Love it! I bought it for my husband and he out not you see right away. It’s not too big, but bigger than some- not heavy.

    The boombox looks just like the ones I had in the 1980’s. It has a cool Bluetooth function to play iPhone music through it. Speakers have great sound quality and bass boost. Only problem is it ate lots of our new and old cassettes.
