 I liked it when it worked. September 12, 2006

This recorder at first was pretty good for the price, but the plug for the AC adaptor shorted, so I had to throw it out. I probably had it for a little over a year and did not use it frequently. I did not drop or misuse it. I'm going to try the Panasonic next.
Have not tried it for recording yet.. but playback rocks May 9, 2006

I am finishing my dissertation.. and I recorded interviews with a handheld and I have been using this tape player from a friend.. and for playback it rocks. i was using a transcriber with footpedal and I never thought I would use a tape player. but the shoebox design makes it okay but more importantly I can hear so much more on this tape player than I could on the transcribers. For transcribing it does have a pretty big backspace (ie.. when I hit return for a second, it really rewinds)but I think it has great sound. My only advice - don't do interviews at Starbucks! :)
 Sound is horrid...even with external mic December 30, 2005

I never learn...pay more for better quality...
I bought the GE recorder and as others have said, the sound is horrible, muffled and hissing. So I paid $10 more for an external mic, with very little improvement.
So I bought the Sony recorder, for only $5 more than the GE!, and the sound is immensely better. And the built-in mic on the Sony is even better than with an external mic.
Avoid the GE...pay only $5 more and get the Sony, which has automatic shutoff and a carrying handle, both which the GE doesn't.
Not good enough May 21, 2005

I bought this unit because the Sony unit was not in stock, other reviews indicated that it was slightly smaler than a standard shoebox recorder which for me is good. I always use batteries so the wall-wart style AC adaptor was not an issue for me.
Unfortunatly the unit has issues.
First the unit uses AA batteries instead of C cells. This makes it smaller, but C cells last a LOT longer than AA's. Also the internal mic is awfull, lots of tape noise. All recorders will have some tape noise but this is really bad. I never had that problem with my trusty old Radio Shack Model.
In order to get any utility out of this I will have to pick up an external mic, which brings the total up past $30. If I had wanted to spend that much I could have just gone to Radio Shack.

I didn't record any voices from the other side with this.. therefore, it is of no use to me.
