Strength:
CHEAP, sturdy, powerfull internal amp (rare find in portables).
Weakness:
10 sec antiskip only reads at 2x (doesnt recuperate very quick) and dithers audio from 16 to 8 bit a very well made player, the only real downside i can see is the audio dithering when antiskip is enabled (i tell no lie.. listen to the sinewaves at the end of a bass mekanik CD with the antiskip off then on [make sure bass boost is off for the test]) its best suited for casual listeners and those who have yet to trade in their car cassette deck for a cd deck... NOT recommended for jogging or excercising because of the slow read speed of the antiskip, but all in all its a good deal for the price. Similar Products Used: old sony diskman (no antiskip) |

Strength:
One of the first units out. This justified higher price. Did work OK for a short while(5 months)
Weakness:
Has markings on case for record, but that does not work. Vendor has dissapeared, and no hope of any repair is possible. A throw away when it fails Model MP786 MP# has not held up. Unit skipped alot, and eventually failed to work on MP3 cd''s. It still works on music cd''s, but I bought it for MP3. I cannot recommend. Similar Products Used: Emerson purchased a wal-Mart for $59.00 with 45 second anti skip Works perfectly. |

Strength:
none
Weakness:
they don''t last longer that 3 months Personally if I ever recieve a Lenoxx sound product as a gift I will return it or just throw it away. I have owned 2 lenoxx sound tape player/Cd players and they have both been crap. The tape player on the one I have now is already broken and I''ve only had this for 3 weeks. |

Strength:
Program/Repeat Features Budget Price Durable
Weakness:
No Time Display CD Lid Could Be Sturdier I am a music nut, and keep a stereo in every room of the house. For that purpose, I have found no better unit than this. I miss having a time display, but the track number is large and bright, easy to read. The sound is pretty good, even at higher levels. And, surprisingly for a budget-priced unit like this, it is programmable, along with the option to repeat by a single track, the whole CD, or just what you''ve programmed. Similar Products Used: Almost every boombox within the $35-60 range! |

Strength:
Good quality for its price range, first portable cd player i have ever owned, worked great till me friend beat it against a wall.
Weakness:
non, whatsoever, good quality, untill my friend smashed it against a wall This thing worked great with the 10 second anti-skip and all, it seemed virtually indestructable, hardly never ever skipped, untill one day when i was showing my friend how good the anti-skip was and then he took it and smashed it against a wal about 6 times and now it wont read cd's for some reason, wish i could figure out why, anyway what an a## hu, im always giving him cra* about it now! |

Strength:
Extremely affordable, decent quality, reliable 20 second antiskip.
Weakness:
Lid has contact with CD when pressure on it, eats batteries each week, cracks easily, weak construction Cheap! has a digital tuner on the lid but is bulky and has no preset memory when changing batteries. But reliable and the anti-skip memory read-ahead is superb. It is worth the cost it is now, which is probably less than $35 U.S. Similar Products Used: Sony D-141 (1994), Sony D-245 (1995), another Lenoxx branded player (1997) |
