I had considered the option of getting her something much better and setting up a receiver and speakers for her so that she could get a better turntable for her, but this seemed like an acceptable first step to see if she even liked vinyl.

I quickly learned I valued my records and buying a cheap turntable would only damage them

I think if you plan to use this occasionally you can't go wrong but for a real music enthusiast I would suggest investing in a better quality turntable.

Turntable is sub par and destroys the records you play on it even after changing the needle it came with.

This is the 3rd attempt I made to buy a Crosley Portable turntable and each one I got seemed to play too slow

I did a little research into other people having the same issues with this player and just concluded that this is a cheap beginners turntable

We don't need some fancy turntable, just one that actually plays the record true.

For real, warm, room-filling vinyl sound, you'll need to step up to a proper turntable -- not a little all-in-one portable -- but you already knew that

I purchased this as a gift and it did not work because the turntable is uneven causing the record to not play correctly

It is a compact yet a very successful turntable.

someone make a high quality portable turntable

Aesthetically this turntable is beautiful but the quality is not great

It shouldn't even qualify as a turntable.

I'm a life-long vinyl enthusiast with a substantial collection of records and several decent turntables (VPI and Technics) fitted with good cartridges (Audio Technica and Grado)

But, I was lucky and found a great old turntable set up (+same speakers from before) and it plays ALL of my records wonderfully!I thought people were being snobs about Crosleys, but there is a distortion problem with them.

 Great turntable for the money

Especially since it is not all that much cheaper than the Audio Technica ALP60, which is a pretty nice turntable.

As I have done more research, I have learned that Crosley's are cheap, entry level turntables

3-Speed Turntable with Bluetooth, TurquoiseStarted out well and enjoyed it for the first couple of days, but then it began waiver in pitch no matter what vinyl we played

The turntable on my Crosley is uneven and records look warped as they turn...and the sound is reflective of that.

The speakers are really tinny, but it's a fun little turntable and it's got audio out if you want to plug it into something louder.

Three months later; the turntable has become unusable as it plays the records too fast.

I love this portable turntable

Once i received the adapter in the mail, I discovered the turntable was uneven and rendered useless for any playing

This met my expectations and is a great low end turntable

Really cool retro look, sound is good for what it is and overall just a solid portable turntable from a trusted brand.

I tried to get my daughterto consider a decent modern turntable with a set of powered speakers which would have been light

but then I connected my cell phone through Bluetooth an the speakers were as bad as before

I did purchase a Protection Agreement just in case, as well as, a backup needle.
