Totally Worthless Junk
Stopped working just after the return window closed—complete waste; regretted the purchase.

Very Upset
Received in May 2025 and used twice weekly. After about 16 months the CD mechanism began spinning uncontrollably and won't play, though the radio still works. I also never got the AC cord, so I've been forced to rely on batteries. Quite disappointed.

Great
Portable and loud enough. Sound isn't high-end but it's acceptable given the price; overall very good.

I first thought it was faulty, but two of my discs were bad. A different CD played fine, so I kept it.

Fair
Decent overall but I can't tune a few local stations.

Highly recommend
Surprised by how full the sound is from such a small player. It projects well into a room and compares favorably to larger, older units I own. Reliable so far.

Good and cheap
Works fine; for the price you shouldn't expect studio-grade sound, but it gets the job done.
