5.0 out of 5 stars Features galore!
Great radio! For the money you get a lot out of this boombox! Radio, MP3 player, tape player, (able to record too) short wave radio, Bluetooth, usb port, adjustable bass and treble, etc. it takes four “D” size batteries (not included) or you can you the power cord it comes with. It also has an outlet for a DC plug as well (not included) the handle is nice and sturdy, and the antenna is extendable and moves around 360 degrees (just be careful and don’t break it)I tried the volume at max and it’s pretty loud! It just doesn’t have the strongest bass but it’s pretty good.It’s not as big as an 80’s boombox, a little bit smaller but this thing has so much packed into it that it’s definitely worth the money for all the options and features it has. Mine was delivered the same day as I ordered it so pretty quick delivery service! I definitely recommend this radio boombox for anyone.
5.0 out of 5 stars The best classic boombox money can buy
This product was such a delight. Didn't expect such an affordable boombox would be so high quality. Easily connects to my phone to play my favorite songs and I get compliments every time I bring it out. This is a steal for anyone looking for a classic boombox with exceptional sound and functionality without breaking the bank.
4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good, humming with Bluetooth
It is a radio worth the price, but some components the quality control could be better. If I turn bluetooth on you get a faint humming. The analog tuner has a little more drift tyan I would care for. It is a good radio to keep on my encolsed patio though.
5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely practical
I love mine. I had bought one before in black but I took it on a camping trip and it had fallen out of the back of my truck with some luggage unfortunately, but I missed it so much I bought another in red. The Bluetooth feature is excellent and easy to use, but I love listening just to the FM radio on it, and I have an extensive cassette collection. The cassette playback function is not as good as a tape deck, and might run slow or warble a bit more than a Walkman, but I still will use it. Sound is perfectly acceptable but it is NOT bass heavy, which I don’t mind at all for passive listening. I get all kinds of comments and compliments on the 2 I’ve owned. People think they’re so cool, and much less boring than those can Bluetooth speakers. I have a Sony boombox from the 90s as well, but I always grab the QFX first because of the tactile experience. I like the feel of the clackity switches, the knobs, and tuning the FM by hand. The handle looks cheap but is actually a study metal piece that I enjoy holding as opposed to other radios made of plastic or rubber. Highly recommend for EVERY day listening, but not for hifi enthusiasts or people who want to blast bass heavy hip hop. I take mine with me everywhere.
1.0 out of 5 stars Recording Functions are Basically Useless
Short version: If you're thinking about purchasing this for it's recording function, don't. The recording function does not work by any acceptable standard.Longer version: I bought this specifically for it's recording function. After fruitlessly scouring Bolo trying to find a tape recorder/player that would allow me to line-in audio to record onto tape, I eventually settled on this, because it had the next best thing: recording from bluetooth. This unit (as well as it's manual) claim that you can record bluetooth input the same as you would record from the radio. I used to record from the radio all the time as a kid on my old (sadly lost) boombox. SO this seemed an acceptable alternative.To say the results were unfavorable would be a gross understatement. Bluetooth playing through the speakers was fine, but the recording sounded like total garbage. It was quiet, garbled, and full of tape hiss. This radio gets LOUD, but if I took the recording I got and cranked it all the way, it was still awful and quiet. I don't know how to better describe it, but it was pointless. It just doesn't record properly.Thoughts on the rest of the unit:The unit itself is not of great build quality. I expected that. Though if you want to know what I mean, it is cheap plastic mostly. Feels like might almost break it by operating it. The buttons actually squeak when you press them.Tape player: Aside from the inability to record - the tape player is fairly functional. I tested it with a Stone Temple Pilots tape I had, and it seemed to be slow on first play. It was the middle of the tape, so I rewound it to the beginning. By the way, rewind is sloooow. Anyhow, hit play, and it actually sounded pretty good. And seemed to work fine. Not sure if the initial slowness was the player or me not remembering how the song sounded. But once I rewound and played from beginning everything sounded alright... gets me to....Sound quality. I noticed a lot of folks on here complain about it. I mean, they are cheap speakers, so you get what you pay for, but it has an eq, and with a little adjustment, I feel like I got decent sound out of it. If you're looking for booming bass -- probably not happening-- but for rock music, it sounded good to me.Blue tooth - Worked for me just fine. Flipped it to BT mode and paired with my phone no problem. Sound quality was as described above.Radio - only had the radio on for half a sec as I was flipping the switch. It happened to be on a station and sounded decent to me. I did not intentionally attempt to tune into anything, so how strong the receiver, etc. are, I have no clue. Only had it on FM. Can't speak at all to AM or short wave capabilities.MP3 playing - appeared to play MP3s from USB or SD card. I don't know who still plays MP3s vs streaming or going back to physical media, but okay. I didn't test cause I don't have a drive or SD card with MP3 floating around.Convert to MP3 - Also did not test, but based on how terrible the tape recording was, I don't have a ton of confidence about it.TL;DR: If you want to record to tape, do not get this unit. If you don't mind the lackluster build quality, this could be a serviceable tape player/radio/bluetooth speaker. For me, the search continues.
3.0 out of 5 stars Great Retro Design but not made like they used to.
First I want to say that this is a pretty cool boombox well it doesn’t really boom but it’s cool, so my only complaint is that the dial warped when I was outside doing some gardening it still sounds the same just is cheaply made I guess? Just be careful if you plan on taking it outside I even had it in the shade for most of the time.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great for the retro vive
The boombox works great with its Bluetooth, played some cassettes they sounds pretty good. The size is smaller then I thought it would be, but the size works good in its favor. Pretty light weight didn't even feel like it has a rechargeable battery. It has a USB port and a SD card reader makes it easy for playing your music on the go!
5.0 out of 5 stars Crazy cool!
Man this is awesome. I love the 80's and vintage boombox's aren't cheap so I was excited to try this out for $40. So many features on it that actually work. I'll mostly use it for the Bluetooth, which hooked up right away to my phone with no issues. Radio is nice and loud too. Haven't tried a cassette yet but all the buttons worked like the old tape players. Charger cord is nice so you can take the boombox outside without having a cord plugged in. It takes batteries also if you need. Really impressed with this the makers of it went the extra mile to add so many working functions. So you get that nostalgia vibe while also playing your music through your phone.. old meets new here!! Would make a great gift.
tres bien
tres contente
great radio
I LIKE IT THAT YOU CAN TAPE BY CASSETTE SD CARD AND USB YJE ONLY THING IT"S NO T STEREO THE RADIO......
Tinny sound
I wanted to use the product to record samples of singing and guitar playing as practice for an album. The cabinet is very attractive and encouraging. However, there is a lot of cassette tape noise on playback. The overall sound is tinny and thin and overly sharp even ofn bass settings, with no warmth at all. it seems that new CD player/recorders must generally have much different inner parts than the ones from the 1990's etc. So this product could work for normal talking fairly well but not for music, including top line professional recording on cassette tapes
