When I bought this item through Amazon.com the website stated that it featured shock protection. However, once I received the item and began using it I quickly learned that it did not feature any sort of shock protecting. The sticker on the device reads g-protection, but its anyone's guess what the hell that is if it is in fact not a shock protection feature.
I bought this in 2005, long before my first mp3 player. After that happened, it never worked again - just kept spinning any disk I put in it really slowly and the display will eventually read 'no disc'. It was a nice little cd player and worked well until last year, when I made the mistake of putting a scratched CD inside it. All of a sudden, it spun the disk very slowly. Just now I tried using it again with fresh batteries and there is this snapping noise along with the super slow disk spinning.Anyway, it was great while it lasted. The controls on the front were kind of awkward and inconvenient but it had nice features and sounded okay.
Fiddly battery location. I should have read the reviews. And the final straw - "no disc" now permanently displayed. This is a bad product: Where to begin. Difficult to read, poorly positioned display, difficult to see and use control buttons. Time to junk this piece of junk. I'm ashamed - I'm a designer, I've should have spotted these flaws.
When I finally got my own job, I shelled out 5 extra bucks and got something that was 10 times the quality of a $15 walkman. I had one of these for 2+ years and it worked awesomely. I only had problems with skipping discs when my son decided that it was a great toy. I'm actually going to buy another one just because i like it so much. I have had many personal cd players in the past that skipped for no reason and were totally horrible. hahaha. I would recommend this to anyone as a great, inexpensive walkman.
u sent me something that does not work and that wrong why why
