I liked it until it died.......2007-07-13

I really liked this MP3 player when I first got it, except for the color. It was darker in person that it showed on the computer. Besides that, the MP3 player worked great. It was my first one I had gotten and it was easy enough to use since I mostly used it for workouts and just let it play in order. The first problem I had early on was that it would get stuck after 1 certain song I had on it. At first I thought it was just the song because I would power it off then power on and it would work fine on the next song. I probably had it about a year to a year and a half before one day it just stopped working. At first I thought it was the battery because it kept powering off, but when I put new batteries in it, it wouldn't turn on.

It might have been that it could have been easily fixed, but I just would rather go buy a new one instead of dealing with the hassle of fixing it for the price it cost.

The FM receiver is extremely insensitive. You practically have to climb the transmitter mast and skewer the thing on the antenna in order to get it to receive a decent signal. Other than that, it's great. Battery life is about 2 weeks or so playing MP3s at reasonable volume for 4 hours a day. Sound quality is better than expected for something packaged in a tiny block of molded plastic. You will probably want better headphones than the ones that come with it, but the included ones are good for working out with, since you really won't care if you get them sweaty. Of course, it would be better with more storage. It is extremely lightweight. Having owned a number of personal stereo type devices over the years, this is the only one that I consistently use. The reason is that the size and weight make it convenient to be wired for sound nearly anywhere at any time. I can easily stick it in any pocket while wearing the earphones, and forget that it is there. (Aside from the fact that it is playing music in my ears.)

Couldn't be any happier with it.......2006-08-14

I've been using it on a daily basis for more than 1 year already and it's really great. Absolutely no glitches so far (I've dropped it on the floor SEVERAL times), great battery life !

Great Mp3 Player.......2006-07-26

I had this Mp3 player for 1-2 years before I got my Ipod Nano. I never found anything wrong with it, and for the price I still think it is more worth the value than an ipod. I always reccomend the Creative over the ipod to friends on a limited budget. Here are a few pros and cons that I have noticed.

Pros:

1. This thing is TINY. Easily fits in your pocket, but just big enough to feel it (so you know its still there).

2. Very durable (Especially with the case).

3. Good Sound, never had a problem with scratchy noises or anything.

4. Voice recording is really cool, saves as a WAV file that you can upload on your computer.

5. FM/AM radio has very good reception.

6. The software that comes with it is awesome. Click and drag ripping similar to itunes, but better in that you can convert WAV and other audio formats into Mp3s (Very helpful).

7. Great battery life (better than my iPod's)

Cons:
1. Small screen (but this isn't really a problem considering how small the whole thing is).

2. No playlists, you have to scroll through every single song to find the one you want. I found this a little tedious, but it wasn't that bad because you can go through each song in like 1/2 a second (although that is a problem when you have a couple hundred songs).

Those are the only two cons that I can think of. Oh, and my headphones were magnetic for some reason, I don't know if anyone else's are like that, but thats kindof cool. Overall, I think the pros definetly outweigh the cons, and I would say for the great price, its one of the best out there.

Creative Labs does not offer customer support.......2006-06-01

Purchased this MP3 player in April 2005. Worked great for twelve months - then I had a problem - it was stuck in FM mode, and I could not turn it off (unless I pulled out the batteries each time). Went to the Creative Labs web site for support - nothing there to help my situation - then I sent an email - and they told me that they WOULD NOT ASSIST ME, and then refered me back to the web site. They also gave me a phone number to call - but that IT WOULD COST ME [...] EVERY 30 MINUTES OF "SUPPORT" THAT THEY PROVIDE!!!!
So now my MP3 player is no longer functional, and I need to buy a new one.

What a surprise!!.......2007-12-26

I have really enjoyed this shower radio. It is larger than I expected; however, it has beautiful sound and reception. I am particularly impressed with the antenna. It is a small wire at the bottom of the radio, not the typical large metal antenna that is bulky and in the way and not helpful. The small wire antenna also has its own compartment you can easily store away.

Again, the sound is excellent. I unfortunately lost the manual;however, to my delight it is very simple to figure out, e.g., working the CD, FM/AM bands, as well as well as other available features. Since I'm not electronically inclined, Ive been very pleased with this shower radio ~ and, yes, I would recommend it. Thank you

Works great.......2007-12-15

my mom has had one for years and hers still works great, and the reception is really good on mine even though I live in a rural area. I was a little concerned about the review I read about it getting water in it and rusting out cuz my shower is alot smaller than my moms, and my radio gets more water on it than hers, but it's has been used from 9/07 to 12/07 with no issues.

Not reliable in my experience.......2007-12-10

I saw all of the positive reviews of this Sony shower radio/cd player and thought it important to share my experience. I bought one two years ago and although the quality seemed to be high (solid construction, good waterproofing design) it broke pretty quickly. Within around ten months the cd player stopped working, and then eventually so did the radio. It was disappointing because I thought spending the money on a Sony ensured a reliable product. Maybe it's because it's a shower radio and was exposed to a lot of steam, but it seemed like a lot of money for a stereo that lasted 10 months, and is supposed to be designed to withstand a bit of water. I expected more and would not buy one again.

It was great while it worked though.

Worth Every Penney.......2007-12-09

Best shower radio I've ever owned. AM/FM/TV stations and weather. 5 presets for each. Very easy to use. Sturdy construction. CD player works great. Obviously, don't insert a CD into it or take a CD out of it while you are in the shower. It's waterproof, not made for underwater use.

Only possible drawback with the unit is that it's heavy, so I had to rig up a special holder for it in the shower. But with the weight also comes sturdiness. Other minor drawback is that I wish the volume could go a bit louder, but for shower radio purposes it gets the job done.

Seems nice but doesn't last.......2007-12-06

Purchased this shower radio for my daughter last Xmas and I am now back on Amazon looking for a replacement. Poor radio reception, difficult tuning, and lack of CD functionality we could live with, but unit affected buy moisture over time and turned "moldy" inside front tuning face plate. Radio quick working. CD player still works but sound quality if fuzzy. Really not the high quality product I have come to expect from Sony. Also unit quite heavy and bulky. Poor durability and quality for the price. Would not recommend.
