The oak finish is beautiful and warm. The only downside that I have found, is that you cannot fast forward or rewind the cassette tapes - but, heck, cassette tapes are nearly relics anyway. It's nice to have a stereo system that handles them at all. I was very impressed by how quickly and well packed my system arrived from Abe's of Maine [.]. The product itself has excellent speakers and diversity in the system itself because it plays CD's, record albums and cassette tapes. Overall, I have had a great experience with the product and the seller.
We had to spend a couple of minutes turning the device on and off hoping it would open the CD player. The CD player didn't work if you had all 3 CD inside, and after the 2nd attemp it got jammed. I returned the item, disappointment since this was a christmas present.
For the day it worked, it was pretty nice. Read the specifications carefully. Unfortunately, the CD part stopped working the first day and we had to pry the door open to get the CDs out.After a couple of calls to Crosley tech support (who, in fairness were very polite and tried to be helpful), we all came to the conclusion that it was a lemon and the only solution was to send it back to Amazon for a replacement. Not sure yet.Three cheers to Amazon for making the return process easy. I may end up re-purchasing locally. this model (at least in cherry) DOES NOT. However, since mine didn't work, I can only give it two stars.I was worried about getting another unit that didn't work, so opted for a refund.
Customer service even offered to refund me for the CDs that were stuck in the machine if I couldn't get them out.One note about speakers. with a decent sound. Crosley has many variations of these entertainment centers. If you intend to do this, beware. Some have auxiliary outputs where you can hook up additional speakers and some do not. All in all, a nice system for the price that blends in with traditional decor. I bought this as a Christmas gift for my Mom.
though don't expect the quality of a high end stereo system. A very attractive piece. the cherry is pretty.
Absolutely beautiful, decorative, great sound, and can listen to old records, tapes. REmote works great, too.Just bought another for my friends.
Amazon said they would return my money but when I considered that the radio and the turntable and the audio tape worked ok, for $200.00 and it looked good, perhaps I was expecting too much. That one didn't work either for the same reason. It is an attractive piece of furniture but the cd part didn't work. Soo Amazon replaced it with another one. Therefore I kept it even though it doesn't completely work.
