Bought a CD player, of another brand, locally, it didn't work at all right out of the box so returned it. Came to amazon and read the reviews of the CD players they carry and was not really impressed with most of them, this one had the best of reviews so I ordered it and it worked like a charm right out of the box. Unfortunately due to my own clumsy handling of the product I happen to drop it 5 times in a 2 day period, 2 of the drops really hard.
The hinge for the top broke on the second hard fall and I thought that I had seen the end of this great little thing----BUT NO--I pushed the play button and it went right on playing as if nothing had happened. It is still playing a week later flawlessly. I ordered a new one which arrived yesterday but haven't unpacked it yet, I am hoping that it is as good as the poor thing that I tried so hard to kill.

Incredible track record for something so abused, I take much better care of it now..love this little machine.

The product had a great review, so I thought I'd jump and get this.
I love cd players and had many.
This was by far the worst cd player I ever had.
I can't get it to show the battery meter.
The anti-skip makes it buzz in the headphones.
It is real annoying. It's not a soft buzz either. Sometimes it gets hard to hear the music especially if you are listening to softer sounding music.
I got mine from Ant-Online and the stocking free plus shipping would make me lose half of what I already paid.
Don't buy this!!!!

I like mine, I have it running on batteries and it last a long time on fresh batteries. I don't know how many hours but I say at least 5 hours maybe even closer to seven hours. I originally bought this to play my MP3 file CD's. YES it DOES play them!! Doesn't say here at the product description but it should. Anyway if you are looking for a player I'd say is close to perfect then get this, can't go wrong. The volume is good too but on mine I can't seem turn the volume down. Otherwise I do recommend this CD/MP3 player. A little idea too is; attach a mini speaker system to the earphone jack and you have yourself a little stereo system! A great travel idea.
