Digital camera reviews of Panasonic SL-SX271C Portable CD Player with Car Kit

Digital camera Review: With Fords and Mercuries
Summary: 1 Stars

When I tried my new Panasonic SL-SX271C in my house, I was thrilled. When I tried it in my car, it would only run about 20 to 30 seconds before the tape player would eject the adapter. I called Panasonic. They said that some Ford and Mercury factory-installed tape players were incompatible with Panasonic's adapter. (Sigh) I rate this 1 star to get people to check out my problem before they buy. It otherwise seems like a good unit.

Digital camera Review: It's a good player, but don't drop it!
Summary: 2 Stars

After my crummy Sony Discman broke two years ago, I tried this Panasonic model. Let me tell you, it has good bass, the batteries don't suck up that much power, ESP is long and it's pretty compact and lightweight. Looks good too with the silver. However, if you are a little rough with it, it might not play another day. I dropped this puppy several times in the first two months. After one big drop exiting my dorm, it could never play again since the plasic hinge broke off, thus making the CD door harder to close. I couldn't play it anymore! I gave it two stars because of it's lack of durrability. It's a great player, but be VERY careful with it!

Digital camera Review: I love how long it lasts on one set of batteries!
Summary: 5 Stars

I got this item about a month ago and I haven't had to change the batteries yet, and I listen to it all the time. The other thing that I love is that while climbing out of my truck the discman slipped from my hand and fell on the ground, didn't skip once, it has a couple of scratches, but it runs perfeclty, I couldn't be happier with this discman.

Digital camera Review: Gets the job done
Summary: 5 Stars

I bought this based on other reviews and am more than satisfied with its performance. Driving a small car, I really have no room to mount a cd player, and this one _never_ misses a beat. I keep it in the seat next to me when I am alone and I throw it in the center console when I have company. The anti skipping works swimmingly. And it comes with all you need to turn your car stereo from a crappy tape player to a mediocre cd player (this is based on my crappy stereo and speakers... individual results may vary.) No complaints here, only praise.

Digital camera Review: More of an inconvenience than a convenience
Summary: 2 Stars

This is my own fault. I've been too busy to take my car in to have a CD changer installed in the trunk. So instead I bought this portable CD player. With the car kit's tape inserted in the cassette player of my car, the volume must be cranked to get a decent level and sometimes it distorts. Worse, it's really hard to open and insert CD's while driving. The mechanism to open it must be slid while keeping your hands from blocking the opening of the lid. A near impossibility to do with one hand while watching the road. It has a spindle inside to press the disc on (sopposedly to enhance the anti-skip function). Try doing this while driving! I'd rather prolong my life. I'll take my car in for the installation of a CD changer and return this portable player to Amazon instead.
