Sony D-FJ041 CD Walkman Portable CD Player with AM/FM Tuner Review
When it does come down to it, we honestly though are sadly not seeing very many people still buying CD's anymore. While it is sad, there are those who are not buying CD Players anymore either, and instead choosing to trade in for MP3 Players that are easier to bring their music with them. But, there are those who still want to own a simple portable CD Player, and Sony has known that for years, and they still know how to make that quality alive for anyone whom wants to enjoy a great CD Player. For those who do want a good one, this is it.br /br /The Sony D-FJ041 is a simple and convient CD Player that delivers nothing but the basics for anyone whom wants to bring their favorite CD's from the past and present on the go. It works great and runs on a simple 2 AA batteries. It also handles great with CD's that you've burned on your computer, as well as CD's that you've made from MP3 music files. The player is simple and easy to use, is very inexpensive. It also dounbles up nicely by including a simple AM / FM radio that works well. The CD's also play well with its simple and strong Anti-skip protection. Yet, with the simple and straight-forward convience, there are a few disadvantages. The first one is that there is a relatively short batter life. Where as you used to have longer battery lives with many CD Players on the go, here this one has only about 15 hours of battery life. The second one is with the CD's that you'd have to burn from your home computer. It will not play your CD's if you have them in MP3 files, you'd have to convert them from MP3 or any other computer related file into the WAV files. This would honestly be the only way for them to work on the player.br /br /All in all, there are still many people who do want great CD Players anyway, and Sony knows how to keep those media's alive and well. I absolutely still recommend the D-FJ041 as a great buy for anyone whom has been loyal to Sony's products for all of these years. It is still a simple and convient CD Player that works well, and handles with the strongest of all electronics. If you have previously owned a CD Player, and are looking for a new one, this would still be a great place to start.br /br /Price: B+br /br /Convience: Bbr /br /Battery Life: C+br /br /Quality: B 1/2-br /br /Overall: B 1/2-

Walkman Disappoints - LH - Seattle
This is a very disappointing product. (1) The all-white buttons on white background, with white raised or indented tiny type for button labels are very hard to read. (2) The button labels are not self-explanatory (e.g., how is one to know that "Enter" = "Start the CD player"?) (3) The brief instruction sheet that comes with the product is frustratingly inadequate. (4) The little control buttons around the rim are not only not labeled well, but are hard to push without accidentally pushing an adjacent button. (5) But worst of all, after using the CD player successfully only one time after I purchased this Walkman 3 months ago, it now DOESN'T WORK AT ALL! (The radio still plays, but I bought this to listen to books on CD.) (6) It is still covered by warranty, but Sony tells me I have to pay .00 to ship it to them plus a .76 repair fee. I could buy a new one for only a few dollars more--but I will never buy this brand again.
Great tool - poor accessory - Joseph Friedman - Sherman Oaks, CA USA
Gives me all I was looking for except: the ear plugs are terrible - very difficult to insert and keep in ear, because of the loop that goes over the ear. Eliminate the loop, as I see featured in most portable type audio electronics.
