Rating: Summary: The Good and the Bad Review: 2nd player bought made by Panasonic thru the years and while they work fine they tend to have a lower volume than most others, tough to hear in a noisy environment, bus, subway, etc., this may be why the batteries do last longer than most.The good for this model: remote handy and decently designed long battery life light and anti-shock works well The bad: low volume model didn't recognize some cdr's and cd-rw's. included sports pouch kinda small doesn't hold extra cd.
Rating: Summary: Bravo Panasonic! The hype is true! Review: After reading the glowing reviews, I eagerly bought this CD player as a birthday gift/ workout companion for my husband. I was NOT disappointed! This sleek CD player weighs half the weight of a walkman, gets 35 hours of playback on 2AA batteries [6 are included], and comes with a remote control [!!!], quality headphones, and a black soft case "jogger pouch" with belt. So does it skip??? When used as intended -- Aerobics, Walking, Jogging -- I experienced no skips. In fact, I had to shake it violently with both hands ON PURPOSE to even get it to skip. My husband however found that it skips when he starts running at 6 MPH on the treadmill. In short, it's not perfect, but it's darn close. The headphones fit comfortably. The "crayon sized" remote control with clip makes adjusting volume or selection a simple push of a button. [No more stopping workouts to adjust actual player settings manually!] And the black jogger case is sporty and adequate. [Although the belt, made of an elastic spongy material, looks like it may last a year at most of rigorous workouts.] With the SLSX286J, Panasonic has done a great job of anticipating its customers' wants and at the current price of $71.99, This is an exceptional deal for you definitely won't regret. Highly recommended!
Rating: Summary: Panasonic still one of the best here! Review: Dear Reader, I think my CD player is ver similar to this one, my cd player is just like this one and i absolutely love it. Nothing is wrong with it, it lasted a long tim (by lasted is i accidently droped it my fault and the screen broke and it really started to become not good) Panasonic will always be my favorite for portable electronics. I recommend you buy this cd player if you are looking for something as good as sony for anout 40% less which is a big drop in price for pretty much the same thing. Plus the 4o second skip on this cd player is great to, it never seems to skip before i droped it i mean.
Rating: Summary: as good as it gets Review: definitely on the the finest available, the anti skip function works worderfully, irrespective of the terrain. the weight is also very light. the cd-r and cd-rw functions work very well. i have managed to make my own cd's which is a pleasure to listen when working out. the headphones could be much better. do not do justice to the cd player. ihave replaced them with aiwa xphones. they sound just great. the remote comes in very handy, could be better if it was wireless.
Rating: Summary: THE BEST EVER!!!!! Review: dude, this cd player is the best in the world right now. Its impossible to skip, and the warrenty is 1 year. THE PRICE IS $50 OFF!!!!!! unbeatable price, only 50 dollars. the headphones are pirfect, and the jogging case lets you participate in any sport without troubel. get this cd-player!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: Great bargain for such a good player! Review: I bought this CD Player 3 months ago and after using it extensively I am pretty satisfied with its performance.My previous player was a Sony model and even if Panasonic seems simple and not with all the bells and whistles,it works almost perfectly and will satisfy your needs. The remote control is very convenient to have,especially if you are on the move. The whole desing isn't something extraordinary and impressive but it works fine and it really deserves its money.The buttons are big enough and you can easily distinguish among them. I had problems playing some cd's probably because of scratches on the media but in overall I would suggest you to grab the opportunity. Batteries last quite long but I would prefer to have gotten it with the AC adaptor. Panasonic support is good and they answered fast to my request for the AC adaptor but its on back-order. Get it and you won't be disappointed at all.In its price category it outperforms a lot of its competitors for sure.
Rating: Summary: Panasonic SLSX286JK - A decent purchase for a killer price Review: I bought this CD Player a couple of weeks back and after using it rather extensively, i had a few points to share. The first impression of this player is rather shocking. Its looks really nice and is very light and compact, but when it comes to music !!! its simply pathetic. NO....the player isnt that bad. Its those really really lousy headphones that come along with it. Panasonic would do rather well NOT to provide one instead of creating such a pathetic first impression. Nevertheless its MUCH beter now, even with a cheap pair of earphones (costing just 5$). So here are my findings. PROS ¤ PRICE - You can't get anything even half as good for this price, at 50$ its a killer deal. ¤ ESP - It just does NOT skip. Bang it, shake it, drop it, torture it, IT JUST WONT SKIP. ¤ SOUND QUALITY - Its great, that is IF you get yourself a new pair of headphone. ¤ REMOTE - It just makes you wonder how could you ever do without one. Its an ABSOLUTE MUST. ¤ HOLD KEYS - Seperate Hold keys on the player and remote are really handy. ¤ LOOKS - The silver colour player looks MUCH better than the images. ¤ SIZE - Its so compact !!! hardly any bigger than the CD itself. ¤ BATTERY LIFE - I am still running on my first pair....WHEN ??? is it gonna die ? ¤ CD-R CAPABILITY - All my burned CDs worked (but then they also worked with my prev 25$ player) CONS ¤ HEADPHONES - Its a BIG BIG letdown. ¤ VOLUME - Rather Low, INSUFFICIENT for Public Transport travel. The BIGGEST DRAWBACK of this model. ¤ KEYS - Rather clumsy, but with the remote, you may NEVER need them. ¤ LOW BATTERY INDICATOR - There aint any, but again i guess, it would NEVER be required. ¤ AC ADAPTER - They dont provide one !!! ¤ CARRY POUCH - The straps seem like they couldnt last a WALK (forget a JOG) I would have given this a 3.5 actually, but given the overall performance and the COST, it gets a 4 rating (rather than a 3 rating). People who intend to use this during travel in public transports (like me) BEWARE this may not be the BEST thing for you. my 25$ Lennox was louder than this. Also count the extra bucks you would spend on buying a decent headphone/earphone. If its shock protection you are looking for, GO FOR IT. ...All in all, weigh your requirements/expectations and then decide according,
Rating: Summary: Love that remote control Review: I bought this CD player for walking. It has been great! It never skips and the remote control is very handy. It also comes with extra batteries and a belt that holds it while you are walking or doing whatever. I recommend it highly.

Rating: Summary: Player lasts, remote doesn't Review: I bought this CD Player several years ago because I have a fairly long commute. The player is great, still works, but I didn't like the idea of lugging around a CD player plus enough CD's to keep me satisfied. I've since switched to an MP3 Player and gave the CD player to a friend. She has had to change the remote on the items three times already. I'm not sure if she is doing the damage herself or not, but either way it's not very durable.
