5 out of 5 stars RCA tape player   October 15, 2008
Very happy with this product. Sound quality is excellent. Seems to be well made. I love that it takes AA batteries instead of C or D size.

I haven't recorded anything with it (and don't plan to) so I can't comment on that aspect.

This product is lightweight and easy to hold. I do a lot of tape recording (voice recording) as a hobby and I found this recorder has poor quality in recording. It does not have a strong output either. I need a recorder that does not make me "lisp" when I speak and that will record without holding it up to my mouth.

I purchased this inexpensive unit solely for the purpose of using it to record individuals that I would be profiling in the local newspaper. Since the purchase this summer, I have been satisfied with the quality of the unit's performance.
For those seeking something of a higher standard, then money should be spent. However, for a basic recorder/player, one can't pass this one up.

I'll preface my review by stating that if I were searching for a high quality voice recorder I would have gone with a brand other than RCA. However, I needed an inexpensive unit which my two young children could operate without much difficulty, and one that played music cassettes. This one does the trick. It is light, compact and easy to use, the sound is decent, the microphone keeps them entertained since they can record their own voices on tape, and the unit operates on both battery or A/C which means I can tote it along in the car to keep them busy. I searched all over for the actual toddler tough versions of these tape recorders which were sold a few years back, Fisher Price or Playskool I believe, but it seems that technology caught up to even the little kids' toys and the units are all CD or MP3 now, which my children don't yet use. This cassette recorder suits our needs just fine for now, and at an affordable price.


1 out of 5 stars Very poor product. Shamefully poor!   June 7, 2007

I recently purchased this tape recorder, only to be quite disappointed by its quality (or complete lack thereof). Not only was the recorded sound awful, but the playback was pitch-warped and jumpy. I should have trusted my Dad, who says this brand is the pits. My mistake! I have since used the Sony TCM-929, and it is excellent...it does what it claims to do.

Don't waste your money on this one!
