4.0 out of 5 stars Fits my purposes, August 7, 2000

This is an excellent, compact personal stereo. My previous walkman had been feeling the years, and I wanted a replacement that included a radio. The reception is good, and there are plenty of presets available, which makes it possible to tune several FM frequencies for a station that you listen to on journeys crossing FM areas. Battery use seems reasonable, and the sound is good.

3.0 out of 5 stars A good walkman, but fragile., December 30, 2001

This review is from: Panasonic RQCR15V AM/FM Digital Tuner Personal Cassette Player (Electronics)

Initially, I was very pleased with the Panasonic RQ-CR15V. The sound is good; the headphones are very comfortable;
the FM reception switch (it helps prevent interference from stronger stations) works well and the XBS (super bass) is
good. The Hold State (it disables the face buttons in case they're accidentally, touched) is a nice feature; the unit is very
compact and the battery checker is nice. Unfortunately, this walkman is not durable. I dropped it once on linoleum and
the cassette mechanism was damage. The volume control later developed a short. The play time for tape and radio is
inflated. Panasonic claims 24 hours for tape and 34 hours for radio, but it's more like 14 (tape) and 28 (radio) hours. I put
the blame on the crystal display. It puts an extra drain on the batteries. Overall, it's a good walkman but be gentle with it.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed walker, September 7, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Panasonic RQCR15V AM/FM Digital Tuner Personal Cassette Player (Electronics)

The belt clip did not hold the recorder in place. I had to hold the recorder instead of weights as I walked. Sound was good, but the tape recorder stopped working after less than 30 days.
Instructions on preset channels difficult to understand. My previous Panasonic recorder lasted eight years. What a disappointment this one is!
