Review on KLIM CD Boombox Portable Audio Player with FM Radio, Rechargeable Battery, Bluetooth, MP3, AUX, Neodymium Speakers, and Upgraded CD Laser Lens (2021 Edition) by Kathryn Brown

Revainrating 5 out of 5

My son loves: Boomboxes

After a bad experience with a similar Sony device (not battery powered) I decided to try the KLIM device instead. First, it costs about 2/3 the price of a comparable Sony stereo, but performs almost the same. This stereo works great with both wired and battery. The LED lighting around the speakers is a plus for us as we bought it for our son. . .and he loves everything that shines. They gently pulse with different colors while music plays, but there's no user control to dictate which colors should be displayed. It simply goes through a sequence of different colors. But it's a nice feature and my son loves it. The display and finish of this device is a bit inferior to the Sony, but it makes up for it in PERFORMANCE. It seems to be quite durable which is important considering we bought it for our 11 year old son. Sound quality is good for a stereo of this size and power. Communication worked flawlessly, both via Bluetooth and via the AUX cable input. We don't seem to have very good radio reception but it should be noted that we live in the countryside and are a bit depressed. . . So stereo can't be to blame and we didn't have very high expectations for radio reception. We just connect him to FM via his mobile phone when he wants to listen to the radio. Finally, the documentation that came with the device had a fun little note from the manufacturer that made me chuckle. I don't want to spoil the experience for other potential buyers, but it was nice.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • So-so
