Overheats2
When first using it, it is an effective inexpensive CD player. Don't consider it portable, because it is highly vibration sensitive and doesn't have skip protection- even setting a coffee mug on the desk it sits on can make it skip; setting it on a mouse pad helps. I use it on my desk, plugged into an AC adaptor, so that is not usually much of an issue. What IS an issue, is that the area where the AC adaptor plugs in gets very hot after many hours of use, and the CD player malfunctions- it stops spinning fast enough and stops playing with an error code.

Update: It's now died, the malfunction is permanent, not just when it is hot. Unfortunately, I don't know how to remove a star from my review- but it didn't last long enough to be worth two stars imho.

Cost-prohibitive1
No memory, so the slightest movement of the player causes it to skip. Drains batteries at a voracious rate. At least it has provision for an AC adaptor (the Colby does not), but the pin would not remain in contact with the jack unless I squeezed it. Colby, GPX, Jwin--mass-produced lightweight plastic that, if it works, does so erratically and briefly. Even if the players were free, the cost in frustration and disappointment is becoming too high a price to pay. Either the Chinese are getting a chuckle out of shipping these to Americans or are as perplexed as I am why we (I) continue to purchase them.

Good for the price4
The product is good for the price but please beware of the build quality as it not sturdy and may not last long with Kids.
