3 stars if not purchased for senior / 1 star for senior

Sounds good but I bought this for a fairly savvy senior with a CD collection. Sticker for radio, NOT CD. It took three of us to figure out how to use a part of the CD (almost no markings on the CD case) and then we had to make new stickers with markings so WE could remember.

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • 0

Old school Sonos ;)

It's incredibly easy to use. Runs on batteries or can be plugged in. It worked flawlessly when I used the Bluetooth feature and played CDs just fine. The radio worked very well. The sound is crisp and takes me back to the 90's. I used it to play my German learning CDs and listen to music upstairs as I refuse to buy another paid Sonos add-on.

Pros
  • price
Cons
  • embarrassing

I really like this radio/cd player.

I bought this for my bedroom and I love how it lights up when I play music - just enough to make it interesting. It has good sound quality. I play it all day except when I'm sleeping. Volume up when I'm in the room and down when I leave the room. I love walking into a room and hearing it and seeing the lights flashing.

Pros
  • Finally got it
Cons
  • Update available

MAGNAVOX versus JENSEN. I can help !

This is a very light and portable boombox. Not as small as the Jensen CD-490 Sport I recently bought and reviewed, but better build quality in terms of CD lid and tuner components, and it's a few bucks cheaper with more features. I'm not sure if the tone is the same. good, like Jensen, but very close. I gave Jensen a 5 star rating and this boombox definitely deserves 5 stars. Both purchases are very good buys considering the modest prices. As a smarter purchase, the Magnavox might have had a…

Pros
  • Well built
Cons
  • Vulgarity

I am very happy with my purchase

I've only had it a few weeks but so far I'm very happy with my purchase. The sound quality is excellent and the setup instructions are simple. I don't use BT so I just ignored that section. I was specifically looking for a model with a vertical antenna and not a loose wire which usually caused MORE radio interference on my previous models and was difficult to position in the right places. -Turn off the radio as I often listen to it while falling asleep. Yes, I knew about this before purchasing,

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • boring packaging

That does not work. NO RECOMMENDATION BUY

Arrived today. unpacked. Read the user manual. Insert the batteries (the expiry date on them is 12-2020). That does not work. The radio turns on, but the sound is barely audible (regardless of the volume setting). And it doesn't play the CD at all. A new CD, freshly inserted from a sealed box. Nothing. The CD will not play. The display area simply shows "no". No matter what I do, it won't play the CD. I tried 3 different discs, all brand new, sealed in the box. The display of the ghetto blaster

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • old

This ghetto blaster is a bargain (and you get what you pay for)

First the good news: the sound of this little ghetto blaster isn't the worst. Don't expect to be great and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. Also, I haven't bought a boombox since I was young in the 80's, so I was very happy to find one with Bluetooth functionality. And the glowing panel is a fun little bonus (and don't worry, you can turn it on or off depending on your mood). And now for the rest: you've probably figured out that there's no remote control on this one. But there is more…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Slightly creased
