Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was so excited to see this record player reissued as I loved this toy while growing up. Ultimately, I purchased at at a brick and mortar store after waiting for it to become available through amazon.com. Beware, it is not of the same quality as the original, nor is it as durable. Gone are the music box tines from the original, replaced with most likely a memory chip (if you have the old records, you will be unable to use them with this player). The record player has also stopped in the middle of playing multiple times despite using fresh batteries, and the machine being properly wound. For a better sense of nostalgia, you would be better served finding a vintage one at a garage sale or elsewhere online.
