WIITHINK Portable CD Player Boombox with FM Radio - Bluetooth, Remote Control, USB, Headphone Jack, AUX-in, Stereo Sound Speakers for Home, Office, Gift

Surprisingly good player (Wiithink Portable). Bought one month ago for my father-in-law who is 96 with mild dementia. He uses the remote with ease. The unit is lightweight and nicely designed with a good range of connectivity options all at a very reasonable price.

This is just another player in my never ending search for a music player that my elderly mother can use. I thought with its big buttons, this could be the one. Its best function is the CD player which works well with the remote. It is light weight and stylish (good) but a bit cheap looking. Sound quality is good and the paired speakers are surprisingly good quality. The 5 equaliser buttons on the remote work well for each music genre with "Rock" being good for Audio book CD's. The Bluetooth connects easily turning the player into a BOOMbox bluetooth speaker for which the equaliser modes work. The USB mode only plays the lessor quality .mp3 files no flac or ogg which is a shame. Turning the player off and on does retain the last function mode you where in One annoyance is that the CD lid has to be manually opened and its toothed hinge is a bit stiff. The radio function is poor, the scan doesnt lock onto stations. The few strong stations suffer buzzing from the AC power lead. Its a shame the display screen is so bargain basement, the characters need to be bold capitalised and larger as they are hard to see. Its a shame there wasn't a voice prompt for each change in function mode. So for the money there are some compromises.

Great value for money plays well good all round sound your service is great thank you

I bought this to replace an ancient Radio /CD Player that finally gave up the ghost. I am so happy with it, it sounds great and it’s nice and loud so I can hear it all round the house. The Bluetooth connectivity is an added bonus and means I can play music directly from my iPad. It looks great, quite small and neat and it is very easy to use, I love the remote control. All in all it’s well worth the money.

Good quality, value and price.

Things started well, with speedy delivery and no obvious damage to product or packaging. Easy to unpack, and with a very good remote control all should have been fine. Unfortunately although the radio worked - a bit crackly but it did work - the CD player was wholly defective and wouldn't play any CD. Sent details to the seller, who agreed the machine was defective and that I could keep it for parts as there was no point returning it. Problem was the seller's system refuses to make any refunds until after a return of goods has been completed and all five return options require use of a compatible smartphone, which I don't own. Eventually went directly to Amazon who immediately arranged for a full refund. A fair assessment (I think) is that anyone can be unlucky and receive a defective machine, but that the refund policy does not make sense, boiling down to: "You can keep the machine but we won't refund you until you send it back". The boombox is fairly compact and the controls appear simple, if it worked I would have been happy with it and its basic design looks solid. I just got a 'Friday Afternoon' one........

Checkout all buttons work properly especially on remote unit. Replacements remote not available separately. Exchange unit only option. Preset tone quality in equaliser is limited. Pity as it looks good and not too large to fit in most spaces.

FM radio and CD player sounds okay through its own speakers but might benefit from a better pair which can be plugged in. Bluetooth compatible. Not the greatest piece of kit ever but for under 50 quid it's really pretty decent and works well.
