THANK YOU THANK YOU.......2007-12-26
It's about time a company makes a product that my daughter loves and can take a beating!!! Also I love the fact that it requires no special software to run. It's so easy to load music and my daughter already can copy and delete music files.
THANK YOU!!!!
Also the Shaker is dependable... when dropped it keeps on playing :)

SanDisk Sansa Shaker 1 GB MP3 Player (Blue)
Good for the money. Good for kids when you don't want to spend money for ipod. Easier for them to use.
Perfect Player for the Pre-teen..........2007-12-19
This was the perfect December birthday gift for my newly-turned-8-year-old daughter! She was utterly speechless when she opened the many layers of wrapping and saw "my own ipod". Big Sis corrected her: "MP3 Player." I was very happy that it came pre-loaded with a few songs just perfect for her age. She and her two companions were able to start dancing to the music as soon as the package was opened and the battery inserted. I just LOVE this little device. The built-in speaker is perfect for sharing the tunes. It gets plenty loud for them all to hear, even over their chatter, but not so loud as to be annoying to us folks. The speaker sound is quite good for what it is and considering the audience. (Don't expect it to sound exceptional to the trained ear.) She also isn't able to turn the volume up too loud with headphones --a nice plus for the young age group. She loves that she can `shake' it to the next song. Most of the kids who have this will probably be great at Name That Tune with the fast succession of shakes I've heard..."I can name that tune in one note"...shake to the next! It comes with all the necessary accessories including software and the cable to hook it up to the computer. I've used neither of those, however, as it's so easy just to put the card into my card reader and drag and drop the music she wanted. Though I find it not to be a problem, my biggest time-consumer was downloading a free converter to convert my wma files to mp3, as this player only recognizes mp3 format. But even that is not a detraction to this great little player. I've read other reviews that the bottom falls off, etc., but I really don't see how that could happen unless it was forcibly pulled apart instead of the little `twist/click' it takes to remove it and replace it. It does take smaller hands than, say, my husband's to get the right grip on the bottom. The design is quite good for the aimed market, namely 6-10 year olds I'd say. Even younger if headphones aren't being used. And I'm going to plug the brand itself. I bought my husband a Sansa last summer because the price was right. But I was happy with the quality, sound, and size, too. And after my 8 year old's birthday her sister turned 13 and I got her a different model Sansa--her favorite feature of that model is the FM tuner so she can record her favorite songs on-the-fly (something not even an ipod can do). I won't be looking at the more (overly) expensive models of MP3s anytime soon! I highly recommend this player and this brand!
Very kid proof - highly recommended .......2007-12-15
I bought one in blue for my kids - 3 years old and 5 years old. Very kid proof and durable. They have really given it a beating, and it still works great. It's easy enough for young children to work. The built in speaker is great, so are the dual head phone jacks. The only reason I gave this product a 4 star rating instead of 5 is because the battery runs out quickly and the bottom lid always falls off. A piece of tape and rechargeable batteries solve those problems, but maybe on their next version they could fix those things. Over all, I would buy it again.
Simple MP3 player for kids.......2007-12-03
Purchased this for a 9 year old and it is just great for the price. Picked it up for $30 delivered with 1GB of memory. Would highly recommend for someone looking for simple MP3 player. No screen, but well worth it for kids requesting MP3 player.

Product Description
This furniture arrives fully assembled! "The optimum use of a disc record of constant rotational speed occurs when the innermost recorded diameter is half of the outermost recorded diameter." But why worry yourself with the details. The Crosley Traveler Turntable plays all three speeds, 33 1/3, 45 and 78 RPM records. By the late fifties, stereo records reached a peak in the marketplace as hi-fi sound reproduction attained its largest audience to date. The portable turntable was introduced in the late 1950's and provided music lovers with a sense of independence, allowing them to easily cart their record player from one locale to another. The popularity of this unit was due in no small part to its portability, but also to its suitcase-styled finishing touches that became a Crolsey hallmark. So whether you choose Ella Fitzgerald or Elvis, celebrate your vinyls in portable style. CR49-TA Features: 3 speed belt driven turntable Plays 33, 45, 78 RPM records Dynamic full range stereo speakers Diamond stylus needle Adjustable tone control Finish: Tan Dimensions: 17"(W) x 11"(D) x 7"(H)
Amazon.com Product Description
Enjoy a whole new level of LP independence with the Crosley CR49 Traveler. Inspired by the original portable turntables of the late 1950s, the belt-drive unit is versatile enough to play all three common speeds--33-1/3, 45, and 78 rpm--so you're not restricted to any one part of your vintage record collection. In addition, the table's tan-colored suitcase housing includes a pair of built-in, full-range stereo speakers, in effect turning the Traveler into a LP boombox (though without the battery power). The effortless portability makes this a great turntable for traveling, visiting friends, or simply enjoying albums in the garage, basement, or other secondary rooms. The case is stylish, too, with a vintage appearance that beautifully complements traditional furnishings. The Traveler even comes with an adjustable tone control, adding to its versatility, along with a diamond-stylus needle. So whether your tastes run to classic jazz or modern rock, savor your vinyl in style with the Crosley Traveler.
The Traveler measures 17 by 7 by 11 inches (W x H x D) and is backed by a 90-day warranty.

does the job, and is handy.......2007-11-21
doesn't spin too fast or too slow, as reviewed by others. convenient for travel. some plastic parts make me qeustion the durability of the insides, but they work fine. box is durable. great for the price.
Plays too fast. ALL THREE that I purchased. .......2007-08-23
To make a very long story very short, I first purchased from Crosley their 4 in 1 turntable. It played too fast. Closer to 35-36 RPMs, making everyone sound like they were on helium.
So I returned it, and purchased the Crosley portable turntable in black. It also, played too fast, closer to 35-36 RPMs.
So I returned that one, and purchased the Crosley protable turntable in tan, the product you see here. It also, ran too fast.
The jist of it? Crosley turntables are poorly made, with a total lack of concern for proper playing speeds. As long as you don't mind (or won't notice), your records playing about 10% faster than they should be, and your singers sounding like they are on helium, by all means buy this product. Otherwise, look elsewhere.
Research before buying.......2007-07-14
My portable record player arrived in perfect condition. However, I was sadly disappointed in this product. Thinking of a children's record player my sister and I used in the 1960's, I expected the same features in this record player. To my surprise, the needle arm movement is not automatic on this item. It must be manually moved by myself to the beginning of the record to start playing it. Also, there is no record spindle to stack records on to be played sequentially. You can only place one record on at a time. On top of this and more importantly the sound quality is poor. I expected better quality all around with the electronic advances made in the past 40 years. Apparently I should have done more research in exactly what was included with this model. I should also have checked into ratings such as this.
A major disappointment!.......2006-11-03
We purchased the Crosley turntable for our 14 y/o's birthday gift. The picture looked great and I had high hopes, but the actual item was made of flimsy cardboard. Placing the arm over the record is supposed to make the table turn, but it was so flimsy it broke within 5 minutes of operation. It was really a disappointment because this took place at her birthday party, with a stack of records ready to be played. If you purchase it directly from Crosley you won't save any money, and you will also have to pay to return a damaged item (about $30). Because I purchased it through Amazon the return shipping was free.
I love this turntable.......2006-02-23
This turntable is great! It's a 3-speed, so you can listen to all your music not just most. Only thing it is missing is an audio output. Plays great! Speakers are nice and loud! It has a tone adjuster which many turntables don't. Also, since this is sold through Amazon, shipping is quick and cheap! Since I am a member of Amazon Prime, I got it next day for $4, rather than $30 and 2-week shipping time. The only cheap alternative is the taec '50's style turntable sold by J&R on Amazon.

Retro looks, terrible sound........2007-07-26
This turntable is certainly one that looks good if you're going for that retro look, but it's sound quality is almost unacceptable. It's nice that it can play 78's, as I've inherited some of my grandmothers old 78's, but for anything else, it's not worth it. The overall sound is tinny and a poor representation of vinyl's potential. I had motor problems not long after I received it; it kept stopping in the middle of a song, sometimes with enough force to send the stylus scratching across the record surface. I don't know if the motor was overheating or what, but it was unacceptable, and it certainly is not good for the records. I would recommend spending a few more bucks and going with a lower-end Technics or Rega instead of this, if you're looking for good quality sound. If not, and retro looks are all you really want out of this turntable, this is the turntable for you.
Almost Perfect.......2007-01-18
This item is a wonderful machine for educational programs. It has settings for all three speeds. Unfortunately, the cord and adapter do not fit inside. We had to sew a bag which attaches to the carrying handle in order to keep the cord with the product. Seems kind of labor intensive for something we paid so much money for.
yup, i like it........2007-01-02
it's not top quality, but i wasn't expecting that.
it works well.
the tone knob is key, use it to get better sounds.
yup, i like it.
if you want a cool looking, but totally not authentic BUT USEABLE record player, this is an OK choice.
Im not disappointed.
Save your money !!!.......2006-12-23
Please save your money and do not buy this record player. I tried one at Rite Aid and brought it back. Horrible sound, crooked tonearm, cheap vinyl cover, etc. Nothing like the quality of older record players like the Webcor. Not worth half the money. Forget the older look and buy a quality Numark PT01. You will be happy you did.
not good.......2006-12-22
this product was of absolutely no use to me, when it arrived screws were missing, and it did not spin the record. unles you plan on spinning the record yourself, this would not be my first choice.
