The quality is great. I purchased a Philips CD player 5 or so years ago and it is still working as it did the first day I opened it. So I thought I would get this one.

I love the sound quality but there are a few draw backs.

Compaired to other MP3 CD players it loads slowly. Also, if you lose the remote you cant use the FM radio. I also have yet to get the Resume function to work on it.

I player works fine for CD. But radio is very sensitive to noise. Not worth.

This player is horrible or I think I have a defective one as it will not get past the first song of a brand new regular audio CD. The CD works fine in other players. It acts as if there is too much vibration about 1/2 way through the first track, repeatedly. It then proceeds to stop playing and print the word 'Oops'. All this while firmly placed on a solid non-moving surface. I am bringing it back to the store and trying out another model before I make the purchase for a suitable replacement. Also I am not pleased that the remote is the only way to control many functions and get LCD output. The remote is not wireless as one might assume based on the word 'remote' on the packaging. It is not the easiest player to insert and remove discs from as there is not much room for fingers to get a good grip around the disc. It does not come with an AC power adapter (many do not), however the battery life is advertised to be very good. It takes a standard 4.5 volt DC power source so using one of those multiple output AC adapters is probably a good option if you are considering using it in the home or office.
