Sony D-EJ001 CD Walkman (Blue)

I almost didn't purchase this CD player because of all the bad reviews it had been getting, but I decided to go for it! I am glad I did, I am very happy with this Sony Walkman! I use it for walking, listening to meditating CDs, audio books, everything and have not had one single problem with it. I am so glad I did not let the few negative reviews sway my decision! As mentioned in another review, I love that if you have to stop playing whatever your listening to it will pick up on the same track when you press play again, it also fits in my back pocket so I can walk around the house listening to anything while doing chores, the earpieces fit well, there is absolutley nothing wrong with this walkman! Those of you who seemed to have this walkman break in 2-3 weeks must not take care of your things. I love it, the price was great, so don't let the negative reviews stop you on this purchase!

Well they were written up as green but they look yellow and the package says green too. But that doesn't matter, the important thing is that they are easy to use and work well. And they were here the next day. Other CD players that we have purchased at that price were sort of cheaply made. The only thing is we wish that the info panel or screen showing the track was on the top instead of the side edge. But price and quality is what we were interested in first and Sony gives that.

This player is 20-30 bucks cheaper than the previous generation Sony CD Walkman (D-E350) with identical features. It looks it. The previous player was manufactured in Japan; this one is made in China. Only a hair smaller and lighter than the earlier player, this one lacks the upward-facing, finger-friendly chrome buttons. They're plastic and all but inaccessible and invisible on the player's lower, inward-slanting surface. The read-out window on the previous model was not only larger and marked more clearly but was readable from top-side; the only way to read the window on the current model is to hold the player close to your face and at eye level or higher (I'd planned to use the player in the bathroom. Not a good idea unless your toilet tank is at least 6'). As for the advertised "reduced" price, don't buy it: it's being advertised for the same price and postage-free on the Sony site. Notwithstanding all of the reservations expressed above, I was prepared to allow this mass-produced piece of plastic to impress me with pure performance. Three CD's and three "no disc" readings. It goes back to Amazon. Good thing it's light.

When my beloved Sony Discman started to die of old age, I discovered that apparently Sony Discmans are no longer manufactured . So I tried another brand, but with great disappointment. Luckily I was able to purchase a USED Sony Discman . She plays like brand new ! NO problems ! There is world of difference with Sony , for example if I turn it off after track 6, it will start back with track 7. Wow ! Amazing.

I purchased this product for myself and my husband to take with us when we walk or fish or whatever. The first time I used it I was so impressed with it, it didn't skip then shut down, it kept right on. One of the best things I like about it is, if you have to turned it off for some reason, it picks up right where you left of instead of having to go through the whole CD again to get there. This is a wonderful thing to me as I do audio books, now I can just close it like a book and open it back to the spot I left it on. Thanks so much. J L Hunter

Well, this walkman is cheap. What else can you expect? To say honestly, the quality of sound is still very good. However, left side and right side is not a perfect balance. Maybe it is the earphone's problem But I have measure the resistance, they are the same. So I am really curious now.

I love this CD Walkman,especially the headset-or should I say ear plugs since it does not have actual head phones over your head. The sound is so great the ear plugs are directly in your ears with just a wrapped wire around your ears to hold in place. It is easy to work as well. The only problem I have had with this CD player is when you turn it off it goes back to the first piece and not where you left off-some CD's I haven't heard the last few songs. All in all this CD Walkman player is the best I have had,and I rate it at the top of the list.

Looks aren't everything. But having a charger or earphones would be better.

Great.

Not only the quality and workmanship of the product doesn't look like a SONY brand product, it doesn't even working.
