In principle can be written that the apparatus does what he should. However, the price / performance ratio is mau. One can argue about the look, my daughter likes it. The CD player works with mp3 burned CD's. The cheap plastic of the flap but it looks not very reassuring. Since my daughter also likes to listen cassettes, I noticed necessarily how cheap is the deck. Leaning pushbuttons are there only the first impression. Auto-reverse? What! So turn by hand. And ... the tape will rewind or fast forward, that you fall asleep while in a speed. Since I am with the good old pencil method still faster! And the cassette then ma durchgespult, then there is no auto stop. The clock, which can be seen in standby mode does not work properly, it is much too fast. But what bothers me most is the hum of the machine in standby mode. Not the point. Hab nu interposed a switch, so I do not always pull the plug. If that thing would not have been s gift and my daughter would now give it back, I would have made it already to return!
