 Good sound, annoying to use August 31, 2010
Susannah J. Nation (Marin County, CA)
Disclaimer: I purchased this only to play white noise on for our newborn daughter, so my experience is solely playing a CD on "repeat."
The sound quality is just fine, it's easy to maneuver, and I love that it has an iPod port.
However, it takes forever to "warm up" (for lack of a better word). Then, once it warms up and I select the CD mode, it takes a long time to process before you can actually hit "Play."
Because there are lots of features and functions on this boom box, you kind of need the manual if you want to do anything but hit "Play." It's not terribly intuitive.
The iPod port is a little flimsy, but it works if you make sure the iPod is situated nice and snug in the dock.
It serves its purpose, but could be easier to use.
Help with repeating all tracks with cd player August 16, 2010
Janice Clews
I just bought this Sony radio. It looks nice in the kitchen. The sound is ok. It is a 3 star radio. I only use it for the radio and the cd player when I am in the kitchen cooking and cleaning. I am having a problem with programming the cd so it will repeat all the tracks so I can play the cd over and over. Can someone help. Thank you.
 Nice little player August 11, 2010
M. Garcia Pradas (Pittsburgh, PA, USA)
I bought this one for myself and my toddler ended up claiming it for himself to listen to his music.
It's nice looking, light, extremely portable (it goes from the deck to the kitchen to the playroom without a problem) and easy to use. The sound is fine, I mean it is not a Bose system but it works fine for us.
As for reception, which is quite crappy, I am not sure it is a problem of the boombox itself but more of the place where we live since we have the same problem with all our radios.
We use it mostly with my iPod. I just hope the CD reader has been improved since all Sony CD players I have owned die sooner or later. I guess we'll find out.
You get what you pay for, and this is a handy little boombox. If you are looking for better sound, you'll need to spend more cash.
I love it! July 31, 2010

I don't have an IPOD so I haven't used that feature. I bought it because I was looking for good sound quality on a small stereo for my bedroom. This works great, it even brings in my favorite radio station that I'm barely able to get on by other systems. Great sound. I highly recommend this item.
Sony Boombox with CD player, IPod dock, AM/FM Radio July 22, 2010

I purchased this Sony Boombox mainly for the IPod dock so I could listen to my favorite music at home without running around with headphones stuck in my ears. The sound quality is what I expected for any portable device. It is not as good as your home stereo system but the sound is very good for what I will be using the product for. At my age I no longer feel the need to blast music at ear deafening levels so the speakers can handle the volume I like to listen to. The carry handle makes it convenient to move but I would not be swinging the item around since it does not seem as durable as I would have hoped. This also goes for the pop-out tray that holds your IPod. The directions state to not carry the boombox around with the tray open, and I highly recommend this. I could see where you could easily damage the unit with the tray open. I gave the battery life 4 stars but have not utilized this feature yet. It does take 6- type C batteries so that is why it did not receive 5 stars. However, I do like the fact that it at least offers this option in case I take it where there is no electric hook-up. As far as ease of use, I think once you get through all the directions and understand the different features, you will like the unit. I do like the remote which is handy when you want to adjust the volume quickly. Would I buy this unit again? Yes- I have had good luck over the years with Sony products and the fact that I can listen to my IPod and CD's on a portable boombox is great.Sony Boombox with CD Player, AM/FM Radio, and iPod Dock (White)
