I purchased this Crosley CR73-3 Celebrity 3-Disc Entertainment Center Audio System with the matching wood table from JCPenney just 2 years ago. Very seldom use the cd player and record player. Turned the radio on mostly on weekends. But used the casstte player often. Well, the cd player and record player just stopped functioning a week ago. I couldnt even get the cd player drawer to open. When I finally did open it and inserted a cd it wouldnt play it, so I decided to ck the record player and it wouldnt work either. Only the radio and casstte player now function. I paid over $250 dollars for this sorry piece of Crosley product! I will NEVER buy anything else with their name attached to it. Just a waste of good money.

We purchased the entertainment center for our Christmas gift. On Christmas morning we went to play the radio..it worked. Next we tried to play the CDS and we could not hear a thing. We tried everything but nothing worked. Also the tape player on the side was troublesome...the tape had to be jammed in to get it to fit in the slot. We called Crosley and they suggested that we return it, which we did and are now awaiting a refund from Amazon.

This is a great sounding and great looking product. It arrived just before the birthday party and was actually the hit. It's amazing how many young people have never actually listened to an LP in person. Any It worked just fine and I would recomend it to anyone who has LP's they want to enjoy again.

Looks Gorgeous. Sounds good.

Construction is below expectations.

Mechanics of the metal lever connecting the top are shakey and more difficuly than it should be.

Volume control is AWFUL. It's a wobbly plastic knob. Digital so you click it left or right, not smooth turning like the tuning button.

Plastic foundation for vinyl record and the needle bar are wobbly. Do not have feel of quality.

Looks great sounds good. Wish it had an aux plug.

I got this for my husband for his birthday. OOPS. His parents had a similar one, so I thought it would be fine. Actually, the first time we tried to adjust the volume, the knob broke off. It was very cheaply made. We sent it back and did not order a replacement. I didn't have any problem with the return.

We needed a simple-to-use player for nifty old well--preserved albums as well as CD's and cassettes. Our Crosley arrived within a day of my ordering it. It took maybe a half-hour to unpack and set up (some of that time included clearing a space on shelving). It was beautifully packaged.

Soon we were listening to Great Themes from Classic Television (vinyl from the 60's). In the three weeks following the purchase, we have continued to enjoy the unit. It is perfect for our needs. We aren't techies, and we don't want to invest in and fool with some complicated sound system.

The Crosley Celebrity is compact, very attractive, and nicely functional. It sounds great to us! (A small note: It does have a remote; a reviewer somewhere thought not.) Of course, time will tell, but so far, so good--
