Customers are saying

Customers regard the Cassette Player with AM/FM Radio as easy to use and appreciate its portability and inclusion of AM/FM radio functionality. However, many customers express concerns about the sound quality and the reliability of the cassette player mechanism itself. Some also find the price to be high for the perceived quality of the product. Additional issues were noted with the battery compartment and the lack of a rewind function.

    Bought this for my daughters so they could play old cassettes. Definitely not today’s sound improvements. Works for what they need it for, but if you are looking for quality sound, this is not it...

    This cassette player works great. I have lots of 'books on tape' and do not want to discard them and start over with a CD player. Appreciate Best Buy having this product in the store.

    I bought this for my aunt who only has cassettes and needed something to listen to, while in the nursing home and to not disturb her roommate. This cassette player works well and we have not had any prpblems.

    Took forever to find this in the store since these are just so hard to find. Bought it to play an old cassette that I found back from the 90's. Sound was good, but it just felt cheaply made.

    It is inexpensive so the quality isn't the greatest but it is an ok investment if one is listening to talking tapes of lectures or books.

    I purchased this product because I still have cassette tapes that I like to listen to when I walk. I also wanted the FM capability. Unlike a Sony Walkman that I had previously bought at Best Buy, the tape player sound is mushy and not crisp. The radio tuner is not digital, and so makes it hard to hone in a signal that is beyond close range. I am disappointed.

    Sad to say cassette players are out of date. This machine works great and I own two in case you stop carrying it.

    Overall good cassette player for starters. Rated it average because it lacked the rewind function when playing a cassette tape. Other than that it works fine.

    Sound quality had a lot of static. This was not due to the cassette tape or the headphones. Used headphones and cassette tape on another device and there was no static.

    The cassette player was purchased for an older family member to listen to older cassettes collected over the years. It works okay. Sound could be better.

    Headphones didn't work good. Only one would work good the other would turn off and on when you move. And it didn't sound loud enough either
