This time, however, I will be sure to obtain some kind of back up warranty or replacement plan along with my purchase. Needless to say, I am very disappointed that this recorder has lasted for only 2 months.
However, after using this device for only 2 short months, I played the tape back one day only to find that the sound was completely garbled and distorted. I purchased this item quite recently, and although the sound has never been what I'd call "perfect", I felt it was an adequate recorder for the price I paid.
After shipping and handling, this would have cost me more than the price of the item itself. After trying 3 different sets of batteries, the sound remained the same.
I contacted the company hoping they would be able to offer some help and advice, but all they did was suggest that I send the item to their facility for servicing. Consequently, I am now forced to make another purchase--something I had no intentions of having to do.
I do hope other people have better luck with this recorder.
I wanted a recorder that is not complicated and does the job- this one does and I am happy with it.
I'm a journalism student, and my professor advised the class to purchase tape recorders for interviews. I wish it had a few more features, but I only paid around $20. It has been PERFECT for interviews. The microphone is definitely loud enough, and it's compact, so I can put it in my purse for recording. I definitely got what I paid for. Like I rated--4 stars.
If you're looking for an inexpensive recorder with basic control this will fit your needs.
Great recorder. Voice activated. Comes in handy at meetings. Versatile and yet small enough that I can carry in my pocket.
