I've had this CD player for over four years now and it still works beautifully. Very reliable. Gave it a good jolt once and even dropped it, but everything snapped back into place and it kept on running. This is built to last.

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.

My experience with this discman lasted me a pretty long time, before it just wouldn't recognize any disc at all. But don't worry, that was about 3 years after i got it. It plays good, the menus are exceptional, but i am wondering why anyone would want this, when you can get the Mp3 / disc player from Philips for twenty dollars more. They are 20 times more high-tech, the menus actually give you the titles of song names (at least most of them) and they truly are jogproof. This is barely jogproof. It only has 45 second shock proof while the new mp3 disc player i got has unlimited. Trust me, you'll be happier if you left this one alone

this was a wounderful product for me, mainley because i had a ten year old RCA untill a little over a year ago. this thing was wonderful, but now it just stops and it also skips. it may have been because i droped it about a foot and a half on some carpet. but if you dont drop it you wont be disapointed.

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!!
