GPO Portable Retro Personal Cassette Player/Recorder with Built-In Speaker and Microphone, Tape Recorder with FM Radio, 3.5mm Headphone Jack, Earphones, Black

Great product that doesn't try and add some modern rendition of a classic product. Just a simple remake of the original cassette player. Functions well and is both easy and simple to use. Great value for money. Is made from plastic but has a strong and sturdy build. Would recommend highly for those looking for something that simply just does the job.

Was bought as a gift and the recipient was very happy with it and it works well

Ordered this for my sons 8th birthday as he wanted a cassette Walkman after watching Guardians of the galaxy. Item arrived in a fair amount of time, but when you go to put the tape in, the drawer bit is cheap and flimsy plastic and you have to forcefully pull it open. Would have broken in no time, was it not for the play button that didn’t work anyway and so returned the item. It fast forward and rewound, but he play button would not stay down to play the tape. The radio did work and it was an ok sound quality, but on the highest volume it was rather quiet. Wouldn’t recommend.

I bought this item with an Amazon Christmas gift card, confident with Amazon/customer recommendations after my 25yr old Walkman finally gave up the ghost. I wanted to use it while working on my allotment where I could listen to old tapes and the radio without disturbing other gardeners. Deeply disappointed when I plugged in the earphones to listen to a tape/radio. Volume control did not appear to work, I could barely hear a thing and tape kept slowing down. However, after I had put in a tiny piece of foil to 'tighten up' the batteries (not provided) and dug out an old pair of Phillips earphones, the sound quality improved tremendously. The tapes do 'jump' in slow motion from time to time so will mainly use it to listen to radio. Bit sad really, I shop on Amazon on a regular basis, buying anything from books to cat food to household goods, cleaning products, etc and never had a problem.

Wow. Haven't had a cassette player in some time. This is great and the sound is clear as a bell. Also comes with a radio tuner should you fancy listening to the football!

Bought this for my 86 year old mum as her Walkman finally died. It’s easy to use and the sound quality is pretty good. What makes it better is that she can listen to it without headphones thanks to the in built speaker

Had to fix play button when first arrived but was easy enough, just a little bend of something, but overall I’m please with it, quite enjoyable tbh

I have many jazz and big band cassettes with music not now available. Good to reminisce old times. Have not used this for months. Tried to use two days ago - red key jammed and cannot release or play tapes
