I bought this for my 10-year-old at Christmas and haven't been disappointed. It is stylish, holds a ton of songs and is easy to use. Highly recommend. Good value for money!

It is as long as the width of your palm and at it's thickest part the width of your big toe. The MP3 player comes with headphones that do not deliver a constant signal if the plug-in to the mp3 player is moving due to working out/running. The FM Tuner is OK... only picks up the most powerful signals on autoscan. Takes 1 triple A battery that was dead with arrival; but for the price, it does the job.

I am new to the gym and got tired of reading the TV screens. I purchased two of these and even though they are bigger than I would have preferred, don't come with the chain pictured and you must use the ear buds provided they work just fine. Clear reception and decent battery usage.

Just got this little player and find it's so easy to use. I got it, took it out of the wrapper and load on the music; I then put in a penlite battery and started using right away without reading the manual. I had no itch at all. It's as if I knew how to use it all along. The sound on the MP3 is very clear. Thanks very much as I find it very boring to read manuals these days.

This is a great little player. Holds tons of songs. Easy enough for my 4 year old to use basic functions. I was able to sync with windows meadia player and load songs from CDs without even reading the manual. Very easy to use and my son loves it.

I bought this for my son, as he walks home from school, and he loves it. The fact that it not only has the capability of playing recorded music, but has FM radio, and is a recorder of voice, etc. really sold me. The options it has are great for the price. We have had to replace the earbuds once, but that is par for the course...

I bought this for my 5 and 2 year old for Christmas and loaded it with tons of lullabies for bed time.

They love it. It does exactly what I wanted it to do.

I made one folder with lullabies. Another folder with fast, playtime music. You can have is play random through all folders, or just in one. I personally set it up to play shuffle within one folder at a time (so they don't get The Twist when they're trying to fall asleep).

The only downfall is that, since it plays all night, the battery doesn't last long. I have to change it once every two days. But, I just use a rechargeable battery.

I purchased this Mp3 player for my 15 yr old son in another town. He has been using it, just fine, fot the past 2 weeks. He reported to me, last night, that it just 'quit' on him. It just looses power for no reason and turns off while in use. I would not recommend this product. I did contact the seller for a refund, and just waiting to hear back if they are going to work with me on this or not.

UPDATE: 1/3/12
I have been offered NO refund STILL at this time!!! I had to put in a report to Amazon, but now waiting on that response! Sick!

I love this MP3 player! I bought it for my son, but I'm thinking that I'm going to have to purchase another one for me! Thanks!

I purchased this for the recording. It seems to work very well for that. Do not count on the FM radio. The reception is very weak.
