Review on πŸ“» Sony CFDS01 Silver CD Radio Cassette Recorder - The Ultimate Music Companion by Becky Barlow

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The controls are hard to read

This is an ordinary ghetto blaster with radio that I bought it for. I mainly use it for burning cassette tapes to a wav file for burning to CD. I only use it for audio. My real complaint about this and the reason I give it 3 stars is that the controls are VERY difficult to read. The instructions should always be at hand. Sony should have painted the controls in contrasting colors instead of making them all gray with raised icons that are also grey. They are generally unreadable when you look at them. Basically, you should always have a guide in front of you to understand them. Maybe you would get used to it if you used the car every day (which I don't). Also, the way you insert a cassette for playback is different than any other cassette player I've ever played with. The ergonomics of this model is a pity.

Pros
  • twinkles
Cons
  • there are problems
