Gueray CD Player Portable CD Dsicman: with Earphones for Car with Anti-Skip Shockproof with LCD Display Support PROG Memory Repeat Function (Black)

Imagine my dismay when I went automobile shopping recently and found out you can't get a CD player in a car anymore. Millions and millions of people still listen to CDs! Anyway, I can't fight The Man, but I can plug a portable CD player into the aux port. I decided on the Gueray player for affordability and because it has a rechargeable battery, and the unit does what I need it to. It comes with an aux cable and a USB charging cable, so it's ready to go out of the box. It sounds good and has plenty of bottom end (all portable CD players should sound the same when plugged into a the same sound system. It's the amplifier and speakers that give you the sound quality or lack thereof). It only needed an hour to charge, and I drove around all week listening to music without having to recharge (5 hours at least, probably closer to 7). I set it on the flat part of the center console just under the AC controls, though your car may not have the same flat space there. The aux cable should be long enough to lay the player on the passenger seat if you have to. It's easy enough to get used to the volume wheel and the open button. When driving, you have to pick the player up from underneath with your right hand and push the open button forward with your thumb. No learning curve there. The buttons and wheels are easy to feel and in sensible locations on the unit. One thing I like is that the lid opens sideways instead of flipping back. Imagine the player is sitting in the center console area between the base of your dashboard and your shifter. If the lid flipped back (i.e., opened toward the shifter), it would be distracting to drive and take the disc out at the same time. The shifter would be in the way, and you'd have to slide the CD toward yourself. This unit places the lid hinge toward the driver and opens toward the passenger door. Trust me, it's simpler to lift the disc out sideways and put it back in a sleeve or case. It sounds trivial, but it makes the motion far less awkward.

I can finally listen to my CD music collection again, and with a compact, well designed, easy to use, good quality CD player. It sits on the end table right next to me on the sofa, plugged in with the included USB cable to an outlet on the wall. Much more fun than watching stupid TV shows at night.

I love it! I bought the pink version for myself, and I use it all the time. With good headphones, the sound quality is great! Very lightweight and seems a little fragile, but overall good. Works while plugged in, but doesn't hold a charge. Needs batteries, but I haven't changed the batteries since I got it a couple weeks ago. Comes with wired earbuds (that aren't great, but they are an added bonus and other headphones are cheap). Overall a great player!

I have been getting CDs again and love this device. Very easy to use, and the sound is great. Battery life is exceptional, and the buttons are easy to understand and use.

I use this CD player at the gym and when I walk my dogs. Because I occasionally drop my CD players, this is my 3rd one, but my favorite so far and here's why: When I end mid-track, the player picks up where I left off when I turn it back on. The on/off button is a slide button located on the side of the player, preventing the unit from bumping into other items in my gym bag and accidentally turning on (my two previous players on/off buttons were push-style and on the top of the players). Volume button is also on the side and you turn the button with your finger. Easy to figure out how to use (I didn't need to look at the instruction booklet that came with the unit). And the player has a little heft to it, feels good in the hand. I recommend this one.

This is so inexpensive that it seems unfair to knock it. Works decently as a CD player (better than the old boom box I was using which skipped erratically) HOWEVER this device after playing a disk rapidly goes into a sleep mode, and frequently refuses to wake back up unless you flip the power switch back and forth. I suspect that the tiny switch will break down sooner or later from such frequent use. I'm powering this with a USB-C power supply. For such an inexpensive item I guess you are getting your money's worth. Ehhh.

I have used this awesome player for several weeks. It easily hooked up to my aux outlet in my car. The sound is beautiful. This also does not skip when going over bumpy roads or even a railroad track. It also uses my phone charger. Wonderful item for playing my cds.

pretty great for the price! i only just got it so not sure about the battery life but the sound quality is great. i think im going to use apple earbuds instead of the ones it comes with as they stay in my ears better, but love this!!! great purchase. edit: i’ve had it for a few weeks now and the battery life absolutely sucks. i used it for two days and it already died… haven’t picked it up since
