Coby Portable Cassette Player & Tape Cassette Recorder with Built-in Microphone & One-Touch Recording with Automatic Stop, External Boom Mic (CVR42BK)

My husband really likes his set recorder. He can listen to tapes from his childhood when his parents used to record all their trips. Thank you so much for this great product.

My mother has old gospel tapes and needed a tape cassette. The sound quality is good. And it doesn't eat up the tape cassettes. With some of her tapes being over 20 years the speed quality was great. The cassette sound didn't drag or become distorted.It's small and compact and easy to carry. Will buy again.

My friend and I are both visually impaired and we live far from each other. We keep in touch by making speaking onto cassette tapes and then passing them back and forth to each other. My friend needed a new cassette recorder, so I purchased this and had it sent to her. She reports that it is working out fairly well. She says the external mic jack does not fit the mic she had around the house, but that the internal mic works ok. She says the playback sound is a little weak, so she needs to turn the volume way up. All that being said, it appears that this cassette recorder will work for us to stay in touch.

Garbage. Ate and destroyed an old tape with voice recordings that will never be recovered. Thankfully I still have more. But this is unacceptable. Why is it so hard to make these that work now? Never had these problems back in the day. It also has a hissing noise the whole time it’s playing. Chose this one bc Coby was a recognized brand. Means nothing, absolute trash.

This functionality was excellent. Thanks

So I wasn't expecting much out of this but the volume is really low, was planning to return but because I could use headphones and it was low cost, thought it might be good just to have one around. The functionality was fine, simple to use, but was using for a one-time project. Rated a 3 star because of low volume.

I like that it is easy to use. No USB CHARGER just old fashioned batteries. Sound is great. Easy to record and go forward and backwards at a push of a button

I'm using this device to capture spoken word and musical ideas. It performs exactly as I expected. The device is not audiophile quality but it's perfect for the money. The included AC adaptor was an added bonus.
