Cute but the radio is maddening!

Nov 6, 1999 - By Amazon Customer (Hamden, CT USA)

This box has it all for a very cheap price, but look out if you want to listen to the radio. The dial is imprecise and the display of the frequencies way too small. If you don't care about the radio, well, the looks might get you!

I love it! Perfect for my needs!

Jan 18, 2000 - By Amazon Customer

I wanted a CD player/radio for work, and this was perfect for the price! The radio was fine (opposed to what the other review here states), I couldn't necesarily get every station, but the stations that came in were clear. The CD portion works great too! I am happy and I would highly recommend to someone.

great little radio for work

Mar 8, 2000 - By Lil One (Seattle, WA)

A wonderful cute radio for work especially for all of us who have to fit a lot in a tiny cubicle. The CD player worked great and the cassette player was more than adequate for the price. Although I had no problems on the AM spectrum, the upper end 102.1+ end of the FM spectrum, did appear to have some reception difficulties.

Great boombox, great value, not for portable use!

Nov 13, 2000 - By carkid11@hotmail.com (Baldwin, NY)

For a present, I recently got an RCA RP7968 Boombox. Its really great! The RCA has large, easy to use, readable buttons. It plays CD's and cassettes with ease, and it also is very stylish(not as much as some Sony's and Aiwa's, though). Although, there are few downsides. First off, it really is not for portable use. It eats away battery's in no time. In addition, it is pretty heavy for a boombox. I still do reccomment this RCA boombox...as I said in my title it has a great value and great quality, but if you spend a few bucks more, you might be able to find a better one for your needs.

Not a great boombox at any price

Sep 5, 2000 - By Amazon Customer (Grayslake, IL United States)

I received this as a Christmas gift and was excited to finally have a CD player that was easily accessable while I worked in the kitchen. The idea was to have something nice, but small. It is small. The sound on mine is horrible! I hardly ever use it because of the speaker quality. Spend a little more. There is nothing worse than listening to your favorite classical piece on speakers that distort the sound! Almost as bad as finernails on a chalk board. . .
