| ditzy_blonde's Full Review: Sony Walkman D-EJ611 Personal CD Player |
My relatives live five hours away from my house. This doesn't seem that long when you see it typed out, but when you are stuck in a mini-van with siblings and dogs and luggage, it stretches on forever. These "family-trips" as we call them, drove me to buy a discman to pass the time with music.
The C.D store I bought my discman at was overflowing with different types of these portable C.D players. I skimmed through the racks, looking both at price and style, until I came upon a Sony Discman. It was a periwinkle-blue, slim, and lightweight. Perfect.
After two years of having my discman it is still in perfect working conditions. Even after I've dropped it down a flight of stairs, onto the street, and on my kitchen counter (yes, yes, I know. I am rather clumsy...lol.) That is really incredible seeing how when you drop most electronics they break.
Another thing I love about this type of discman is that it doesn't inhale batteries. I use it about everyday while on the bus to and from school (1 hour and 20 minutes) and I have to replace the batteries about once or twice every two months.
This C.D player doesn't skip, even when I take it jogging. It also has many options for when you play it, like if you want it to loop, play the bass louder, etc, etc. It also shows if your battery is low, or if you have it on pause.
Another REALLY good quality of this CD player is the fact that it has a hold button. This is good because when I bring it to school and shove it in my bag, if a book accidently turns it on, it won't waste up the batteries as long as it's on hold.
I recommend this discman to everyone because it is a great buy (mine was only 85 dollars) when you look at the quality of the player.
