Title: CD player no good
Product review: I purchased a unit nearly exactly like this one (model number RCD039), though mine LOOKS exactly like this one. The front load CD player has never worked right from the first CD I played to my most recent attempt this morning. When I push the CD tray in, the unit makes a spinning squealing sound and only about 30% of the time recognizes my CD and begins to play it. The other 70% of the time, the unit doesn't recognize that a CD is inserted--the digital track information shows - - instead of the number of tracks on the CD. When it DOES play a CD, it often stops reading the CD after a few songs... for no apparent reason.I should have return the unit the next day, but life got busy. If you plan to use this for its radio or MP3 functions, you'll be fine. The radio works, but I haven't tried the MP3/iPod function yet. Do NOT plan to play any CDs on this machine. I'm convinced the front spring-load design is just crap.I got mine on sale for $39 and completely wasted my money.
