High price for the limited features. Sound was ok but I did return this item just because the features didn’t justify the cost.

I bought the first one,from Best Buy, about 6 mo. ago. It was a really good Radio & CD player. Then I got into making Copies of the CD"s I Liked, to a Memory Stick, so I could play them in my vehicle.
My wife liked it so well, I had too get her one too.
Both are doing really well at making us both happy.

Needed something portable that could play both CD's and USB sticks. This unit does that.
Sound is good but could be better if the speakers had more bass tone.
It also came with helpful operation instruction sheet.

Good sound, but this portable cd player didn't last but 2 years. The cd player stopped working. I purchased other less expensive models at other retail stores and they lasted only 2 years, so I decided to pay a little more and get a trusted brand Sony, only to be disappointed that this one too only lasted 2 years.

This is our third of this same Sony and the price for forever has been $99. I had a lot of wonderful kids CDs from my children and gave them to my daughter when her 2 girls were born.

We bought this for our teenage son for Christmas. He listens to his CDs on it and it's perfect for what he needs. Good quality CD player. We usually go with Sony brand because we trust the name.

Bought this for my daughter over Christmas. I didn’t even know they made these anymore with everyone using their phone for music. So far everything is working great. The add player has an anti shock system to prevent skipping and my daughter has discovered AM radio. She is fascinated.

Simple and straightforward product. Wanted my daughter to have a CD player but also wanted it to have Bluetooth capabilities. This fit perfectly. It was a little pricey but was exactly what I wanted.

Radio tuning is difficult, but good machine if you want to listen to Older CDs and Mp3 cD’s.
Buttons hard to read/interpret.

Pretty nice sound and easy to use, bought this for a vision impaired relative and he appears to have little problem with it. Just wish the fm radio had a stronger reception

Easy to get out of the box and set up on my shelf. Easy to operate as the instructions are very clear. I am able to get several FM and AM stations that come in clear. Plays one CD at a time. Size is nice, 12 " W x 5-1/2" H.9" D. Just the right size for me.

I love this box so far, except whenever you power it on you have to redo the setting you were on. It doesn't keep radio or chanel you need to do it again.

Every night, right before bed, I hit the play button on a calming cd. Works wonders in helping me get to sleep. If I’m cleaning or organizing the bedroom, I’ll crank up the radio.

We use the boombox in our small motor home which does not have a CD player. We bought the 12 Volt converter to 110 volts so we can use it when traveling as well. Best Buy associate came up with the two items after I explained what I wanted to achieve. One of the best advantages in going to Best Buy.
