Review: After having a Sony CD player that lasted through almost three years of torture and still works decently, I bought this one and retired my old Sony. I need a CD player to be survivable because I take my music everywhere, mountain biking, to the gym, in the car. I bought this thinking it could stand up to the same torture that my old Sony did. I was wrong. This thing konked out after having it for two months. One day it just stopped working. The sound quality was ok, but I hated the interface. The buttons are flat so you can't listen to music in the dark. I needed to turn the light on whenever I wanted to hear a certain song before I went to bed. This thing is a good low price but it wont last you very long. Go with a Sony, they are the best!!

Summary: Don't try to take this jogging!
Review: Despite this product's name and claims, it SKIPS. It skips even during light jogging, even when snuggly housed in a waist pack or in a pocket of a jogging stroller. I would not recommend this product to anyone who want to listen to a CD while jogging or running. Big dissapointment. Also it does not come with a belt clip - you have to buy one separately from their 800#.

Review: I bought this cd player because I wanted to listen to burned CD's while I exercised. I have had absolutely no problems with it. I set the player on the little shelf on the EFX Machine and it has never once skipped. I walk around campus with it all the time and it has never once skipped. The battery life is every bit of 20 hours, even with the ESP and Bass turned all the way up. As far as the headphones go, I can't comment on them because I couldn't get them out of the plastic shell of a package this thing comes in, besides I prefer the Sony "in the ear" model when I'm working out anyways. The only little complaint I can think of is that when the player is set to random, it takes a little longer then usual (maybe 5 seconds) to get to the next random song. Other then that, I wholeheartedly endorse this product. **UPDATE** The complaint I made above was solely the fault of a badly burned CD-R. I apoligize to Philips and anyone I may have misled.

Summary: Jogproff.... I dont think so.
Review: I bought this solely because of the it claimed to be "Jogproff", well no, this seems to be misleading, I dont know what kind of testing they did to come up with this theory, but even with a brand new CD playing in it, at most you'll get about 20-40 seconds of continuous music before it starts skiping. I dont know how companies manage to legaly provide consumers with false information about thier products, but hey, I might have missed the small print somewhere.... Im in the process of returning it.

Review: I use my cd player at work with the wire going through my coveralls as I work at a fast pace 40hrs a wk. and it wasn't until I dropped it on the concrete after 4 yrs, yes 4 yrs 40hrs a wk, cd after cd, great sound (only to be complimented by radio shacks pro35 stereo headphones)did it need to be replaced. An absolute quality product. The best cd player I've ever had and believe me I know music.

Review: This CD player is pretty good. It has nice sound quality, the headphones are good, and dispite what other reviewers are saying mine doesn't skip at all (even on some of my scratched CD's) and it works fine after 6 months of having it. It has the usual features that I have come to expect from portable CD players such as bass boost, random and programmable track orders, etc.. Generally, this is a great CD player for anyone. The only reason I gave this 4 stars is because someone recently stole my CD player and my new one is really super thin and I think that is cooler than this regular thickness one.

Review: This product has given me nothing but good luck! It is light. It has a great & clear sound with adjustable base levels. It allows for many different options such as repeat song, hold, resume, & etc. I've also found that this Philips brand CD player, in particular, lasts a long time with the standard AA batteries. I can actually listen to 3 or 4 CDs multiple times each and still have a third of the battery capacity left. No other CD player that I've tried, can do so!!
