Nice little CD player

I like this for my work office. Connected and easy to use. Good sound. Not for a party, but for a small space, like an office or kitchen. Judging by the photo, it will be light blue. It is not. Is this silver. But it's normal. Very nice and small stylish design

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Negative is present

great price and great sound

great quality, I recently found an old custom CD player that I have been using for years and it still works great and they are the same brand. very impressed with this brand. This unit is compact in size, good sound picks up a lot of stations, will definitely buy again

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • No performance

After 2 months suddenly stopped playing discs!

I expected mediocre sound quality for a low price and I didn't complain. But it's almost brand new and just breathed its last today, refusing to spin the CD and making low, intermittent humming noises. The radio still works but I bought it for the CD player. I want my money back but I won't bother to repackage and send it back to Revain. It's garbage.

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Only available in white

Cheap then broken

A basic CD player is all we need for a child's room to play CDs at night to help baby fall asleep. Took 3 days longer than the Revain return policy. At first it just had trouble with a few tracks and we thought it was a CD, but after trying a few more CDs it just didn't recognize a CD anymore. So now we have a big paperweight. Bought 07/16, died 08/20. A piece of junk. I will contact the manufacturer's website to try and get the money back.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Some cons

CD player will only play compatible discs.

I could not find a compatible disc for the player. I've tried several. In the picture from Amazon, the antenna is clearly visible from above next to the handle. There is no. The design is terrible as the switch to turn on or off or toggle OFF on AM FM CD player is in a bad place, it matches the setup control. Every time you want to turn it on or off etc. touch (move) the spinner. This means you have to return it almost every time you turn it on.

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • almost everything is fine

Stopped working after 7 days

Worked fine for the first week but then part of the CD suddenly stopped working - not even reading CDs that used to work in it. Super disappointed! The sound was fine. The radio still works, but I don't really need the radio part, I bought it for the CD player. Of course I threw the box away, so I got stuck on it like I would only be on a radio. I really need to learn not to throw away boxes of stuff and at least keep them for the return period because that would definitely come back if I hadโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Band

Give it time to make sure it works the way you want it to.

At first I thought it was a smart purchase. I bought it for my mother who is in a nursing home because music helps her. I tried it at home first to make sure it worked because I had to mark it with permanent ink before giving it to her. Everything was fine at home, but when it was used for my mother, part of the CD didn't work. Maintenance determined it was a defective sensor in the CD player. The main reason it aired was to play CDs. I am very disappointed that I now have to try to findโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Secret

Fantastic CD machine!

This is my 2nd purchase in 3 years. The first played over 5000 discs before it stopped! (the radio still works.) I listen to about 20 CD books a month, I've had the first for about 2.5 or 3 years, never had any problems. I used to go to Walmart and buy Sony, Omm and all the rest there and after 2-3, 6 months they went broke and disappeared. And it's cheaper than Crappie Walmarts! I bought my first NAXA because if CD players break under heavy use every 3 months, buy cheap ones. Then the lowestโ€ฆ

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Exchange option

Very picky about what CDs he reads!

I ordered this for my 93 year old mum with dementia because it was recommended to me as easy to use. However, he is VERY picky about the CDs he reads! I did a test with an old boombox I had. This newly purchased player rejected most discs with minor scratches, while the old boombox read and played the same CDs just fine (yes, the same ones with a few scratches)! MOM's favorite music CDs with a few minor scratches! I will say that the radio function worked damn well with internal antennas. And a

Pros
  • Annual probationary period
Cons
  • The list will be long.
