    It was junk straight out of the box. One must manually hold down the "play" button for it to do so. Tried to play a recording to a phone listener and the unit emitted strange sounds rendering the attempt a failure.

    Junk. Head phone jack hums. Playback speed is way fast. I'm lucky it did not destroy my tape. I purchased this to copy cassette tapes to a digital voice recorder. Should not be selling such a defective product. Purchased 11/25/2019, but did not try to use it til 1.31.2020 and passed the return date.

    The only reason I bought this tape recorder was to save messages off of my digital answering machine. I tried to use it once, amd when I played the messages back to hear what it sounded like, I was disappointed to hear the poor quality sound with loud background noise. Perhaps it would work better if I was using it for other purposes, but I’m not happy using it for the purpose I bought it for.

    I really like being able to play my old cassette tapes again. The quality on some of them are not so good though but it could just be because they are old.

    All of my old cassette players were no longer functioning. Old tapes were just waiting to be played for my grandchildren. The price was right and it worked perfectly.
