About PHILCO Digital Cassette Recorder Portable Tape Player
Overall Feedback:
78% positive
77% appreciated the long battery life, while 23% found it drained quickly
I love the product. It's a keeper and a good deal at $30.
The device is perfect for on-the-go use as it is compact and lightweight.
The portable cassette player recorder ate the tape more than 4 times.
72% praised its rugged and reliable design
The product feels sturdy and beefy for its size. The controls are tight and the tape mechanism seems OK.
I appreciate the durability of the device that brings the warmth of analog tape into the digital era with modern technology.
81% liked the ease of use
The sound quality of the MP3 file matches the quality of the tape. It's a great way to preserve old tapes that can be subject to wear and tear, heat, humidity, and aging.
79% found it easy to carry around
I find the product sturdy and fairly beefy for its size, with tight controls and an OK tape mechanism.
74% praised the clear and crisp sound, but 26% found it muffled
The sound quality of the MP3 file is similar to the quality of the tape.
The sound quality is good for monaural recording, but I would not recommend it for recording music from a radio or other source.
The sound quality is horrible and what annoys me more is the motor that sounds like the tapes would stop through recording, or slow down and speed up, and sometimes stop fully and EAT THE TAPE.
