Reviews around unit (3.71 of 5)

  • The unit died after 11 months, and only used 4 or 5 times
  • I did plenty of research prior to purchasing this, so I'm not sure there are many better options, but I can't recommend this unit.
  • The only reasons why this boombox is labeled by Amazon as a "Best Seller" are that 1) people are drawn in by the Jensen name, and 2) the unit is cheap
  • But it's a nice little unit, easy to use, takes up little space & puts out some decent sound for its size.
  • However, you have a nice little unit and it looks kind of cute sitting on my cabinet

  • Only problem is the loud buzzing noise it makes just being plugged in, not even turned on
  • The only complaint I have is a constant buzzing noise that never goes away even when the unit is turned off.
  • You can't hear it when the music is playing which is good, but it is kind of annoying because I have to unplug the CD player after every time I use it to get rid of the buzzing noise.
