Summary: I Wish I'd never seen you!
Review: Last Christmas, my mom and I decided to go buy a cute littleradio. We got this sleek little charmer in yellow and it is SO cuteand small and light. It seemed perfect- until I tried to record oneof my CDs to tape. The copies always come out fuzzy and hard tounderstand. The volume is never right on them and, well, it might aswell not even offer the feature. The CD player takes forever to loadthe data from the CD. Although I don't mind giving it a couple of goodslaps on the side every time I want to put on my favorite songs, itcertainly doesn't make me happy. My Boom Box also has this habit wherethe lid won't stay shut, so you have to hold it down. Sometimes itwill run without my having to cling to the top of it, but it almostalways stops at the most inconvenient time displaying that the lid isopen... even when I'm holding it down!... If you want a good CDplayer, buy anything by Sony. Even their cheapest, worst one is farsuperior to this.

Summary: Disapointed
Review: Maybe I recieved a defective boombox, but I am disapointed with it. The first second or two of songs on CD gets cut off, especially when recording onto tape. Also, you can't turn it up very loud. For the price, it is "okay" but I would rather pay more and get better quality.

Summary: VERY GOOD!!!!!!!!!!
Review: The CD player on this was execelent and despite what other reports say it was perfedctly clear and the speakers were also good. The volume had a wide range and was good for any occasion.

The digital tuning was definetlt a plus and ALL my favorite stations came in.

Summary: Best gift i have recieved in years!
Review: This boombox is the best i have ever owned. the sound quality is excellent and it is nice and small. more portable than most boomboxes. the batteries seem to last forever, as well. the outward-facing speakers make a difference too. i take it to the beach with me and it almost creates a surround sound effect. i love this CD player. Also, i can get this one to play many of my CDRW's and CDR's. That's a definate plus!

Summary: You get what you pay for
Review: This CD/AM/FM/Cassette player is getting poor reviews from most consumers; so I have to say....you get what you pay for. If you want an inexpensive CD/RADIO/Cassette; then buy it. If you expect it to last....forget it! I have had experience with Boom Boxes from White-Westinghouse, GPX; which are similar to this one; and they have all been disappointments. They either had poor bass, poor recording quality, or poor radio reception.

BUY IT AT YOUR OWN RISK....BUT KEEP THE RECEIPT! IT is your only hope of returning it.

Summary: The worst piece of electronics I have ever owned.
Review: This product was given to me as a gift, bought ahead of time so the 90 days warranty had run out before I used it. The 1st time I used the CD player it broke. The transfer switches between CD, Radio, and Tape were always sloppy. Now after two months the power switch has developed a short.

When you log on memorex.com you see a bunch of fluff but no real place to talk with what must be a small (if any) customer service department. Not only is this product a dog but I can't let anyone know about it at Memorex. There motto must now be "Is It Alive at Memorex?"

Summary: piece of crap
Review: This radio is garbage. The radio can't get in the strongest local station. The cd player skips. The overall quality of the product is terrible and I'm a product designer.

Summary: Doesn't work half the time
Review: This seems to be a love it or hate it item - I bought one for one son and it was adequate, didn't plan on recording or having "theater quality" sound. Doesn't have any extra features, but I didn't pay much for it either. I bought a second one for second son and the CD player on this one doesn't work half of the time, makes a sort of grinding noise and decides there's no CD there! Opening and closing the door repeatedly eventually will make it work, but I'm shopping for something else.
