Great value. We purchased this mainly so we could play our vinyl collection and have a "real" radio, so the other features are just icing on the cake. It has great sound and is solidly constructed--the walnut looks authentically vintage. Only two reasons I took this down a star: 1) adjusting the volume between this one spot where it's either too quiet or a little too loud takes a Very light patient touch. 2) the CD player opens and then immediately shuts before you can slip a CD in after about the fifth play. Still, we use it as a radio/record player all the time. It gets better reception as a radio than our official "stereo" system every did! No regrets.
