I just wanted a player I could take to any room in the house, plug in so I wouldn't have to spend a fortune on batteries, and I wanted to buy online from a reputable retailer. I went to Amazon.com because, as a long-time customer, I knew I could find a recorder-player that was reasonably priced, would arrive quickly, and would perform just as I expected. The Panasonic Shoebox has filled my needs perfectly and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it anyone wanting an inexpensive, reliable recorder-player. from Amazon.com Performs as advertised. Sturdy, excellent value for the price. I use it in an automobile that does not have a cassette player built in. It operates perfectly, and has a large enough speaker to sound fine. from Amazon.com The volume has to be at maximum before I could hear discernible voices without putting my ear right above the speaker. It also records a lot of anoying background noise. I had bought recently an Aiwa micro-cassette tape recorder which turned out to be nearly useless. I was hoping this one, using a full size cassette and with a large speaker, would not have the problem of smaller one. from Amazon.com Like a previous reviewer, I use mine for song ideas and also for singing practice. I prefer the larger speaker of a shoebox recorder because it provides better fidelity and more volume than you get with hand-helds. And although I don't move my recorder around much, I wanted both portability and a direct AC connection.

Before buying the Panasonic shoebox recorder, I compared it to the GE 3-5027. I chose the Panasonic because the Panasonic comes with a removable power cord that plugs directly into the wall and the recorder.

from Amazon.com like a previous reviewer, i use mine for song ideas and also for singing practice. from Amazon.com i listen to the spoken word, not for music. from Amazon.com i enjoy listening to audio books and music, but i didn't want to spend a lot on a large, fragile, sophisticated system. from Amazon.com i'm someone who just wants an easy-to-use recorder to conduct interviews, phone interviews, the latter purpose for which i have an adapter. from Amazon.com it made some sort of noise and that was the end of that. from Amazon.com with the volume set at the mid-range, i could hardly reproduce any audible sound. from Amazon.com
