    It is not what I expected. The recording has limited use and comes with little information. May be OK for notes or dictation.

    Got this for my daughter since she was dealing with some unfair dialogue at work. It's the only way to prove who said what. She feels safer now and isn't intimidated.

    For the money, easy to use and much better than turning on the lights after bedtime and reaching for the pen and paper for recording thoughts for tomorrow.

    I could not get it to turn on first. Voice level was too low and not able to increase the volume. Found an reviser I had purchased over 15 years ago. It was easier to operate. My old tape was still in it and the volume was loud and clear.

    I was in need of a voice recorder for an upcoming meeting that I was scheduled to attend. This Sony recorder was perfect, and the price was very inexpensive as well.
