Review on 🎡 GPO Brooklyn Portable Boombox - CD Player, Cassette Player, FM Radio, USB, Bluetooth Speaker - 1980s Style - Black by Jeff Sorensen

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Don't waste your time and money!

Pulling this item out of the box I immediately noticed two floating pieces of plastic that had fallen out of the cassette player. One of them was a latch that broke so the cassette player is hanging open. and the other was the part that rotated the tape in the cassette, so even if the cassette lock worked, the tape still wouldn't play. Then I tried to connect it. no energy. It turned out that the power supply that came with the radio was not working! After trying a new one that I bought separately, it finally charged. That's when I turned it on and found that not only did the sound suck, but my big right speaker didn't work at all! I hear a large object rolling in the radio, which I believe is a speaker that somehow fell off. Sounds like crap, built like crap. complete shit. I would give zero stars if I could. Selling it at IKEA for €50.

Pros
  • fully portable music system in the style of the iconic 80's boom boxes, with all the technology of the 21st century
Cons
  • large and bulky
