Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I had one of these a long time ago until I wore it out and that was about 7-8 years ago. It is a good compact player and Insignia is the charter carrier brand of electronics for Best Buy as well as being available here on Amazon. My advice to you consumers out there- CDs or Compact Discs are quickly becoming an older technology- so when ever you see a CD player brand new on Amazon or wherever you find it- buy a couple of them because there will come a day when CDs are no longer produced along with the players becoming extinct. However on the contrary- vinyl and records made a significant come back in 2012-2014 and are being produced brand new again. Just look in a Barnes and Noble store. For this player- The quality is very good (especially brand new) and will play most CDs except for mix CD brand CDs like Verbatim (I have had a problem with those lately). The headphones could be better but they come standard so I guess you get what you pay for. Also a helpful tip- USE RECHARGEABLE AA BATTERIES with this player. It helps keep the springs and connectors in the battery compartment clean and you'll get more use out of the player as a whole.
