About Studebaker Portable Retro Home Audio Stereo AM/FM Radio & Cassette Player/Recorder
Overall Feedback:
81% positive
65% appreciated the long battery life, while 35% found it drained quickly
I soldered a permanent DC input from my battery into this thing, indicating that the battery life of the portable-cassette-player-recorder is not good enough for my needs.
I opened the player to remove the tape and found that it was eating the new tape, indicating that the battery life is not sufficient for proper operation.
75% praised its rugged and reliable design, but 25% had issues with fragile parts
I found the plastic case and carrying handle of the portable cassette player to be solid and not hollow in the back, indicating good durability based on my experience.
I think the product is poorly made and junk.
After two weeks of usage, the cassette door jammed shut, indicating poor durability of the product.
75% liked the ease of use, but 25% had trouble
The buttons for cassette play are stiff and hard to push without knocking Studebaker over.
83% found it easy to carry around
This radio's quality plastic case and carrying handle feel sturdier than similar cassette players in this price range.
82% praised the clear and crisp sound, but 18% found it muffled
I played a tape at full volume on the radio and it produced a clear sound without any breakup or distortion. It can get pretty loud and I could even feel the air moving in front of the speaker.
The buttons and dials feel loose and unreliable.
