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.

    I have a brother who is handicapped who loves to play music and can only do a machine like this and has many cassette tapes to play on it. Very hard to find the machine but works perfect for him

    I was looking for something to plug into some speakers I have that has an aux input. Works perfectly and can listen to tapes. Kinda plain looking tech but does the job!

    I was happy that unit worked as described. During the past year I had tried two other brands that did not render good sound quality. I use when I workout at gym. Performs well.

    I got this for my father who is not up on the latest technology. He said the radio works great, but the tape player never has worked. He didn't want to mess with a return. Disappointed in this item.

    I returned the first one I bought because it was defective. Well, so is the second one. It emits a loud screech when I try to play it.

    Yea, this does an ok job of playing my cassette of the Velvet Underground, but the casing is way too mainstream for my taste. Also, might as well find your own lo-fi headphones.

    Not so great cassette player

    I'm sorry to give a negative review, but the player was not good at all. It had only a fast forward and no rewind. Besides that, the speed at which it played the cassettes was not fast enough, and the results were negative. I was trying to digitize some older tapes my mom recorded, but the voice did not even sound like her. I purchased a different player, and it was fine. Sorry! Memorex used to mean quality,but this product did not do the job.
