It has pretty much everything. It's water resistant, 50 sec skip free protection, random play, cool looking, etc... The only bad thing about this CD player is its earphones. The max volume is not very loud and the sound quality is poor... but beside that, there's not much bones to pick with this player. If you want to get a new Sony CD player, get this one.

I go through my share of cd players. I usually pay a little more and enjoy the extra features. My last was lost. I received this Sony model as a gift. Its a lower priced model, and based on the length of the headphone cord (short) I think this item is for kids. The unit performed ok for the first couple months of use. I run with the unit, and now it skips constantly and it will mysteriously stop mid-song leaving the display of the nnumber song, and the disc spinning, but no sound. Odd. The volume is locking now, the sound was never great.

I put the unit through its paces. It can't hold up with my usage, but for someone who's needs are not athletic the quality of this unit may suffice.

I've owned Sony cd players and like their features and sound usually, this is a lower end item that I am not accustomed to owning,

I had the former version of this machine, and this one is better. The skip protection is better, as they've changed it from 25 seconds to 40 or 45 seconds, so it skips less. The sound quality is also better than on the older version. (Hopefully this one will also hold up better - the other one died after two years!)

This item works well but my MP3 player has put it in my drawer where it won't collect must dust.
