I'm glad I took the chance

After reading the reviews I was hesitant to buy this product but it was such a great deal! So far, so good. Everything works great and I'm glad I bought it. I mainly use it for the lake and the beach. Picks up a good signal.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Only available in black

There are better little CDs out there

Bought and returned. If you want something small, it's very compact. However -- none of the buttons are labeled with words. The volume and setting controls are located on the side/back. The CD door slams shut when you close it. Spend a little more and consider this much better device: the Memorex Portable CD Boombox with AM FM Radio.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Collapsed in just a few months.

This is an update of a review I made when I first received this product (August 2018). Up to one out of three stars. After a short period of use of several weeks, it broke. The hard drive no longer rotates properly. There was a slight knock that could be noticed after about 15 hours of general use for about 4 weeks. Now the sound of the platters goes from normal to distorted, presumably due to a mismatch between the spinning platter and the head. Almost all portable CD players have mediocre…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • There are issues

CDs will not play; Terrible FM reception

Purchased elsewhere. Doesn't play CD. the selector moves in very small steps between off, CD, function (auxiliary input), AM and FM. Tried to move the switch back and forth in as small increments as possible - nothing for the CD. The front LED didn't even light up. The radio has no display, neither analogue nor digital. I should have seen that in the pictures before I bought it. VHF reception only worked if you held the antenna or were very close to the device, otherwise noise. It's hard to…

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Minor issues
