Multi-function player exceeds expectations
My old CD player/radio was getting long in the tooth. The radio reception was degrading and it had a huge counter footprint. Finally, it had no Bluetooth capacity. My wife was okay swapping out CDs, but I have long since moved to Spotify for my music. I decided to try a new, smaller footprint player with Bluetooth, but I needed to keep the radio and CD capabilities for my wife. I also didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars. My wife isn't much of a audiophile and the sound quality for her isn't an issue. I just don't use the Bluetooth in the kitchen very often.I decided to take a stab at this player. The price was good and it had all the functionality I wanted. I figured if things went south, I was only out $45.As it turns out, the device exceeds my expectations. All the functionality works as advertised. Installation is dirt simple; remote works cleanly and easily; Bluetooth connection for my Note9 worked seamlessly; sound quality is more than acceptable. Even sitting on its easel-like stand, it takes up less than half the former counter space. If that gets annoying, I always have the option of attaching the device to the wall and eliminating any counter footprint.As for quibbles, I was thrown at first by the on-off switch. There is none. You turn on the device via the remote or by pulling the cord. I have also noticed a BONK sound when I try to turn the volume very high using the remote in Bluetooth mode. Easy enough to avoid, just turn up the volume on the Bluetooth-origin device -- in this case, my phone. In fact, the biggest issue I have thus far is remembering to bring my phone into the kitchen when I'm doing the dishes. That's an old person issue, and no fault of the Three Ducks Direct player.The clincher for me, however, is the customer service. When I thought there was a defect in the player, I contacted Three Ducks and they responded immediately. We worked through my perceived problem quickly and completely. I could be more satisfied that this group cares deeply about their customers and is willing to go the extra mile.Great product. Great service. Fully recommended.

Perfect for my farm-style house!
I am in my 40's and have a zillion CDs and I can access most music on my other devices, but some I cannot. We don't have a CD player but I didn't want one that was too big, because I may not use it that often, and they are ugly. This seemed perfect since I could mount it on the wall and it be completely out of the was but simple and clean enough to go with the decor. I did so in my sewing room. This is where I want to listen to stuff anyway.I was so excited to know it was compatable with my phone's Bluetooth and that I could plug in anything with a USB. SUPER VERSITILE.I like the ease of sliding it on and off the wall if I want to move it.The sound quality if the CD and the Bluetooth are the same. I can listen to my audio books stored on my phone and my music that is only found on my old CD's. I like the blue tooth option. The speaker is so much better than my phone's (galaxy S10)I love having a remote. I mounted it on the wall almost where the door, if open, would cover half of it. It is totally out of the way but the sound is not muffled at all.. It is eve level and I can sit at my sewing machine and use the remote to change it if I'm in the middle of something.Thanks for a fun, sleek, clean, modern music option for me!!!

works well but controls are strange and some simple things aren't obvious
I got this a few days ago so that I could play some of my old boxed up CDs I hadn't used in years.I was going to buy a fancy $500 Bose unit but this looked like much better value for money.After a few days of using it I'll say it's definitely worth the money but there are a few things about it that are weird and take getting used to. Most of these things make me think "why would anyone make a CD player do this?"1. Pulling on the power cord to turn the power on & off seems weird to me.2. The "repeat" mode either repeats a single track or the whole CD. What if I don't want to repeat at all? Not an option, apparently. I usually want it to play the CD and then stop, but there seems to be no way to make it do that.3. If I want to know which track is currently playing, it appears that I have to stop the playback or skip forward a track or backward a track. If I want it to keep playing whatever it's playing but just show me which track it is, there doesn't seem to be a way to do that.4. The instructions make it very clear that one should not touch the lens on the LED that scans the disc, but there is no "lid" to cover it up. For a portable unit that would be carried around and possibly exposed to random environmental factors, this is a rather substantial oversight.5. Considering that it has no lid to cover the disc and lens I would strongly recommend not actually using it as a "portable CD player" unless you keep the box it came in, or get something similar, and only carry it around protected in the box. The unit itself is lightweight, and although it is a little larger than other portable CD players I've had, it is not unreasonably large, especially considering that it has speakers built into it. So from a size and weight point of view it is certainly portable. For me the portability was not an important factor in making my purchase decision; the main effect for me is that it is easy to move around my apartment.6. I was a little confused by the product description. I was expecting to use this CD player with a separate bluetooth speaker that I have and use for streaming music from my phone, but after I got this CD player I realized that the CD player is not designed for that. It does have Bluetooth, but only to stream music to it, not to stream music from it (at least not that I can figure out). The speaker quality in the CD player is fine but not as good as other standalone Bluetooth speakers I've used.Other portable CD players I've purchased have worked well for 6 months or a year or two and then failed. I've only had this one for a few days so it will be some time before I know how well this thing works down the road.But considering the price, it works and sounds fine and if you can overlook the moderate peculiarities in the controls described above, it is well worth the price.

No CD Cover
What I disliked is that it did not come with a CD cover and thus one of the reason why we returned it, the 2nd reason is we found out that we paid twice the amount other people paid for it, so we got another one from a different seller/company at Less than half the price and it came with a Cover, all the rest was just as good.

Producto de mediana calidad.
Es un producto de mediana calidad. Lo devolví porque en el instructivo advertía no ver el láser directamente y protegerlo del polvo con una cubierta, misma que no estaba incluida. Si la cubierta es una pieza importante para evitar daños tanto para el usuario como para el dispositivo, debería integrarla el fabricante.
