Portable Cassette Player Recorder, Tape Player with Stand-Alone Microphone, Walkman Cassettes Tape Digital Converter to USB Flash Disk, Built-in Speaker, Retractable Handle, 3.5MM Headphone Jack

As a basic USB-powered (or C-Cell Battery powered) cassette tape recorder/player... it's good. Mostly works fine, except when it doesn't . . . And when it goes bad, it's very bad: The tape transport PINCHES tapes, and then CRUMPLES them, then EATS the tape, winding it around the drive spindle.When this happened on the first tape, I thought "OK, this must be a bad tape, because it's done fine with several others so far". But then it started failing on every tape I put into it.Out of TWELVE tapes I ran through, it crumpled EIGHT of them and ATE and BROKE FIVE of them. So I can definitely say it is not my tapes, and this deck definitely does not work as expected.What I bought it do was to record tapes onto USB stick. And for that, it's not nearly as simple and functional as it presents itself to be. Even before it started eating takes, sometimes it would work, and sometimes it doesn't. I was able to get it to more consistently work when i pressed the REC.to.USB button TWICE... after having pressed PLAY and PAUSE on the main tape transport.One thing I'm pretty sure about (but don't see it mentioned in the documentation) is that the SIZE of the SDISK/TF Card matters... I've tried using three different SDISKs ranging in size from 128M to 128G... the best one I've been able to do ANYTHING with so far is the tiny 128M one, which is way too small for most jobs I want to record.I did finally get a 16G one to work, but all the while it tends to GLITCH and insert some weird spiked noise into the recording every now and then. (see pic). So far, I haven't figured out what that's about.For a while I could get it only to PLAY from USB (and not even that, consistenly. But it sometimes has played some), but was not able to RECORD to USB consistently at all...For now, I'm RETURNING this device to be REPLACED with another. I will give it the benefit of the doubt that perhaps this unit's electronics or mechanical transport are somehow flawed . . .

Cassette recorder difficult to record with. You must hold top little record button and try to press play and record buttons down below all at the same time to make it record. Sometimes it catches for record and sometimes not. H well it is wat it is. But would not recommend this recorder to others to buy.

This was a the best way to hear old cassette tapes without having to spend too much. Great little unit with some current surprises!

Over all Great item, but it's already tried 2 times to chew cassette tape since i bought it ...

No dislikes. Met my needs.

Rubber belt broke after a few hours of use. Inspection showed a tiny thread of a belt.

I threw it in the trash

The media could not be loaded.  It doesn’t play sound and doesn’t record to usb.
