I'm a patient person and just wanted a working player, but it took an entire summer and three returns to find out this player is just cheaply made, and all it's good for is looking adorably faux-retro. Behold, the latest one has the SAME problem very first time I use it-plays at 35-36 RPM instead of 33 (I counted to be sure), and there's no way to fix the darn thing. This time tech support told me they would check it at least twice to make sure it doesn't play too fast. Michael Jackson was already a little high anyway, but I compared it to the same song played online and it was definitely too fast, and so was anything else I tried.So I sent it back. I very carefully try the replacement they send me, same model of player, and it plays records about 10% too fast right out of the box. I got the repaired/replaced player, but I go to use it and every record I play on it, regardless of age, sounds like it hit the martinis harder than Dean Martin-warped and alternating between fast and slow.So I sent it back again. Then the needle, which appears to be at least partially plastic, broke.So I sent it to Crosley itself for repairs. The first time I ordered it, just over a year ago, it worked. Ok, so I didn't buy this on Amazon, but I felt it was important to warn people about this "cute" player. Crosley please make more turntables like this one! Don't use cheap ceramic cartridges!ĩ of 10 people found the following review helpful.Ĩ of 11 people found the following review helpful. Great little portable record player for the price. The stylus can be replaced and a 78 rpm cartridge installed for proper playback of 78 records.
What makes this the best portable record player made in years the fact that it has a magnetic cartridge made by Audio Technica rather than the poor quality ceramic cartridges available in most portable record players made today. It closes into a suitcase and has space inside for the power supply and usb cable. This record player is very neat looking, much better than what you see in the pictures.
