GOOD because it's inexpensive (free shipping too) AND speakers do
a passable job when you're puttering around OR when you "need" it
to create white-noise to mask intimate sounds from snoopy persons
in adjoining rooms OR when you wish to listen to music/lessons at
work (where it is forbidden to plug personal equipment into their
precious wall sockets). Mind you, the speakers merely prompt your
imagination as to the true sound of the original work: they don't
provide high-fidelity reproduction of speeech, much less music...
NOT AS GOOD AS the "JWIN JX-CD775", which includes AM & FM radio.
The JWIN JX-CD775 (with digital AM/FM) costs more, so in case you
do not need a built-in radio, then by all means go for the CD-575
Since (as of 2004-03-27) Amazon has yet to carry the AM/FM/CD one
(do a search; you'll see), I will copy below for you TWO features
lists. This way, you can compare the features of each jWIN model.

Footnote to the fence-sitters:
Should you have qualms about splurging on the jWIN brand quality,
do keep in mind that to get the equivalent in FEATURES from Sony,
Aiwa, Panasonic, Philips, and the other heavily advertised brands
you'd have to shell out more dough than for a schlock brand, such
as Coby, jWIN, and GPX. There is no way that you're going to hear
GOOD sound from shallow speakers that are built into a CD player.
Furthermore, regarding the "Lightweight Digital Stereo Headphone"
that is so graciously included with each model: you might as well
toss it into landfill or gift-wrap it for a lukewarm friend; that
accessory is torture. Better to simultaneously order Amazon.com's
ASIN: B00004TZJQ (which does NOT include free shipping). With the
Panasonic RPHC100 ("Noise Cancelling Headphones") you get quality
sound, extremely comfortable ear cushions (the padding SURROUNDS;
it does not COMPRESS the cartilage of the outer ear), and circuit
which somehow electronically cancels out undesirable frequencies.
Since this folding headphone is still bigger (and more expensive)
than the CD player itself, you might downgrade to a schlock model
that still does a satisfactory job, such as the ASIN: B00007E7L4.
Shipping costs nothing when you order enough merchandise together
to add up to the minimum, so the Coby CV190 is affordable (25% of
the cost of the Panasonic RP-HC100), and there is ear padding (ON
the ear, not AROUND the ear -- not as comfortable or effective) +

the useful noise-canceling feature (powered by one AAA battery, &
the folded size of the Coby is more compact than the Panasonic. I
realize that this info about headphones is useless to someone who
already HAS a decent set; I write about the Coby/Panasonic 'phone
for those shoppers who are about to be saddled with the jWIN one.
Even the name-brand products that include "free" headphones often
stick you with junk. Unless you are on Death Row and have used up
all your appeals, don't live with what these Pacific Rim products
bundle as headphones; you MUST replace garbage with quality. Bye.

The CD player is pretty good, but the enclosed headphones were awefull. Sound breaks in and out, they also feel and are cheap. Replace the headphones and you're ok
