Great little player . I had loads of old cassettes and they are now MP3's on my PC . Very easy to use one lead takes signal to PC and powers device . Really good buy

Works well if a little basic. Useful to be able to play old cassettes. As others have mentioned the plastic finish looks cheap and a bit brittle. Then again not buying this for it's looks and for £20 unreasonable to expect higher quality.

With this great little product, I’ve been able to digitise all my old mixtapes that have been sitting, gathering dust, in my loft for decades. Sound quality is absolutely fine for my needs but what I did notice is that if the volume dial on the side of the device isn’t turned up to maximum, the recording is transferred quieter. So make sure it’s turned up full!The door to the device is a little flimsy so care would be advised when opening and shutting. Gentle hands, yeah.All in all a good little device that has brought me hours of nostalgia fun as I haven’t owned a tape deck in decades.

I bought this for its main purpose, to digitise a large collection of old cassette tapes. As it will take much time and effort to transfer tapes, one would like to at least have a close to the original recordings on the tapes. Unfortunately, whilst the unit is easy to use, quickly recognized by my Mac laptop, after several attempts, I found the tape spooling mechanism/speed unstable. It is not noticeable with fast beat music, but when it comes to vocals or high pitch piano notes (jazz, blues), the singers would sound as though they can't sing with long pitch going off. This is an obvious issue of the tape spooling speed being unstable/inconsistent. Moreover, base portion of the sound spectrum comes right off, very tinny. I had to return it despite attempts. I have now bought a USB stereo sound grabber device instead and using it with my old JVC tape desk to do the same job; sorry to say sound quality is simply much much better despite being analogue. An honest opinion. For the low cost of the unit, its good as a cheap listening device or for the odd "not so important" cassette transfer; but definitely no for serious music recapturing.

If anybody has experience with a Recorder that offers direct USB output (which delivers a much cleaner signal than one that goes through analog audio channel) AND works as advertised, I'd be very grateful.RESHOW RECORDER REIVEW1. FLIMSY BUILD - ’Nuff said.2. LABELS ON CASSETTE FLAP PRINTED UPSIDE DOWN. Making you think you’re playing Side A when you’re actually playing Side B.3. CONTROL SWITCH LABELS UNREADABLE. They are small and lightly embossed in the cheap metal. You must hold the recorder up to a bright light to create shadowed letters that you can read with a magnifying glass.4. REWIND SWITCH DOESN’T POP OUT WHEN REWIND IS DONE.Requiring you to peer closely (I have to use a flashlight) to determine if the spindles have stopped spinning.5. REQUIRES 5 VOLT ADAPTER that’s not included.6. Instructions recommend you download Audacity to capture the audio signal. The current version, 3.2.x, works brilliantly for high-end audio editing. It does not work so well capturing audio signals on older computers, even using Windows 10. Fortunately, I have an old ACER running Windows 8.1 and Audacity 2.1.2 that works brilliantly.7. CONTINUOUS / SINGLE-SIDE SWITCH DOES NOT WORK.No matter how you flip the SINGLE SIDE RECORD / CONTINUOUS switch, the unit will not stop and will continue recording until presumably, there is no more storage space left on the disk.This is the deal breaker for me I would put up with the myriad shortcomings in the Recorder the digital signal was clearer than with my high-end Sony tape deck. Unfortunately, There is not enough time in my life to check and see when The A Side has stopped recording and flip the cassette over.

I a walkman with a reverse play function in order to listen to some meditation tapes. After doing some research , I decided on the Reshow walkman and I was not disappointed. It is of simple yet excellent build quality, and works equally well with the provided cable or with batteries (though I prefer the cable). The reverse play function, which was most important for me, works perfectly. It is very lightweigh, so easy and comfortable to carry with you in your pocket, even when jogging. Finally the customer service from Reshow is very good indeed. Quick clear communication and very helpful. If you're looking for a good value walkman, I highly recommend this excellent one from Reshow.

Good but overpriced, easy to charge,sound quality is good. Good gift idea! Hope this helps....

First unit was unacceptably poor. Problem resolved by Ishuhua. Bought second unit which is satisfactory.Well specified cassette player with acceptable wow and flutter.I am a satisfied customer now.
