Summary: low price, low quality
Review: the microphone is poorly made, buttons are difficult to push, recording quality is poor, software was entertaining for about 10 minutes but it's inflexibility rendered it useless. Even if you get it for free, as I did, it is not worth the hassle. Mine sits in a drawer, unused for many months, after only about 30 minutes of use.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: useless junk
Review: This item has hardly any practical use whatsoever. The sound quality is very poor. Also, KB Gear rebates for any of their items are bogus. Their rebate clearing house is slow and unsympathetic. I've bought different KB Gear items with rebates offered and none have panned out. Amazon should stop carrying their merchandise.

Summary: Awesome Product
Review: This product is really fun to just play around with with the kids or even to singing along with the music by plugging it into there web site. I recommend it highly 8 out of 10!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Cheap junk
Review: To be honest, I never even made it to trying out the software.

This thing is not even acceptable as a toy. It is very cheaply made. The silver thing on top is an almost useless speaker - the microphone is actually below that and is tiny and very poor at picking up sound.

It can only record 3 minutes of crummy mono sound, unless plugged into a computer and used as a cheap microphone.

There is no display to show what is recorded, and the volume control has 2 settings - low and high.

The whole thing looks and feels like it is ready to break apart.

Summary: Take this piece of junk, and ---- JAM IT!!
Review: Unbearably cheesy device. It came as a *bonus* when I bought the KB Gear Jam Cam. (I'm still waiting on the rebate, by the way...) This thing was SO CHEAP that it was physically IMPOSSIBLE to install batteries! I'm not kidding! Once the batteries were inserted (correctly - I'm an engineer), there was NO WAY to replace the battery cover! I even tried reshaping the plastic protrusions inside the compartment with a sharp implement. No dice. Broke the dang locking tab clean off. Unbelievable. It was very satisfying to drop the Jam-It into the nearest wastebasket. It made a reassuring *thud* when it hit bottom. There. I feel better.

P.S. The software is moderately entertaining, and works fine with a garden variety PC microphone, although it has no practical application or real value. Even so, ...

Summary: Stay far away from this, you don't get what you pay for
Review: Well, I guess it's for kids. Since they have lower expectations perhaps they would play with it for 5 minutes.

The sound record quality is very very bad. The length of recording is short short short. Less than 5 seconds.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Worst piece of junk of all time! Do not buy!
Review: Where should I begin... The input level on the microphone is so low, the software wouldn't even pick it up. As a handheld recorder, the playback in unrecognizable. I thought this would be a great gift for my daughter...no chance. It doesn't even work as a standard microphone for the computer...

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: does not meet my recording needs
Review: You get what you pay for and this is the perfect example. It comes with a portable microphonic device that can't record quality voice-overs. The software is a joke, but what do you expect for 12.95. Spend your 13.00 elseware, maybe on a condensor mic that actually works.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Hoax
Review: You get what you pay for! The product is cheaply made and performs just as well (which is very poor). [....]
