Editorial Reviews This colorful, kiddy recorder is solid, durable, and has a wide, textured handle. Unfortunately, it's still mediocre after considering its engineering. It's top-heavy, yet has a flimsy cassette door which may be problematic if there's a lot of toppling (likely with preschoolers). The machine has all the functions of other toy tape players, including large buttons, icons, and a karaoke microphone. The tradeoffs: rewind and forward buttons must be held down to work, and the record button is hard to press down (all tedious during song repeats). The microphone is attached by a fairly short cord, which means some kids will have to carry the heavy, clunky machine, or sit down, to use it properly. The microphone itself offers limited amplification, but kids will still love elevating their voices above the music. The sound quality is very good, even stereophonic when headphones are employed. There are adapter jacks for headphones and AC power, but parents will have to buy these accessories separately. The recorder requires four C batteries (not included). --Diane Beall Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism Durability: Fun: Educational: This was a Christmas present to my son, along with some books on tape and music tapes. He loves it. He sits in the back of the car with his books on tape and listens to the books for hours while we travel. He is just about three is able to operate the buttons and the put the tape in and out of the cassette player. This has withstood some heavy duty playing time. My son even wants to take it to bed with him at times. It has survived that just fine. My one complaint is that the microphone doesn't always stay in it's place and gets drug around if you don't watch it. Other than that, I think this is a rough and tumble tape player that is great for little kids. We haven't had a problem with it being a battery eater, nor have we had problems with the door popping off. It's been a good toy for us after six months of use. enjoy.
