(4 out of 5)Simple yet Perfect for a student
I bought this recorder for school and it has been just perfect. It allows you to use a 90 minute tape for 180 minutes due to its double recording time function. It's an excellent buy and highly worth the money. It makes it easy for me to study because I can just play the tapes in my car or while I'm walking around. I highly recommend it!!!
(1 out of 5)Not practical for all applications
I bought this recorder for heavy field use in journalism. My first problem was the voice activated recording. If you turn it off, then the recording is muddy.
Second the motor is not very strong. Almost all the tapes I used - that work correctly in other machines - would lock up the motor.
I was very disappointed in the motor that couldn't pull a rewind on a 90-minute cassette.
Beware of this recorder!!
(1 out of 5)Useless
As soon as I finish transcribing what I can from the 90% inaudible mumbles I recorded with my Sony TC-M20DV cassette recorder, I am looking forward to smashing this useless piece of junk with a large hammer. I will never buy economy recording equipment again, because you get what you pay for.
