“Good product would like volume control to be a little easier to adjust and battery operation option would give more flexible”

Helpful Report

“My mum absolutely loves this and listens to music at several points during her day. I was unable to remove the tracks already on there despite several attempts so have had to leave them on. I'd recommend this product!”

“Pleased overall but difficult to adjust volume. Shuffle would have made it better value for price0”

We're sorry to hear that the our customer is unhappy with the lack of shuffle and the difficulty adjusting the volume. The volume change on this product has been made slightly difficult (although it only takes a minute if you know how) on purpose to prevent the volume being changed. If a music player with shuffle and easier volume control is more suitable then we would recommend our Tempo 200 music player with product code 1005600.

“This device was bought as an attempt to lure my relative away from the TV, (which was causing anxiety, because of his dementia) and back to music he loved, but could no longer manage to play on his hi-fi unit. This player was a total success, it is now the preferred form of entertainment, I have since ordered a second one for the bedroom. It was easy to set up, IF you had MP3 tracks available, the type used on phones and iPods. The sound quality is excellent. My only suggestion for improvement would be for it to play in permanent shuffle mode. It currently plays the music library in order and them repeats. Otherwise this device is worth every penny.”

“Love this music player ..... it’s the only thing that mum can use .... it’s her constant companion. She spilled water over the last one - hence this second one. I wish it had instructions about converting tracks to MP3 ... took me a while to figure it out.”

“We're very pleased with the music player. Very easy to set up apart from the volume controls though we got the hang of this eventually. My aunt is enjoying her tunes.”

“Bought this simple music player for my 82 year old Mum who’s eyesight is failing and has memory issues. Tough durable casing. I was disappointed with the volume control function which is on the bottom of the unit and very difficult to access whilst using. Also, when electricity is turned off the music reverts back to the 1st song (my Mum turns the power off every night) I found it very expensive considering you have to down-load your own music from PC. Perhaps, If you were able to mail-order 500 or so songs to be pre-loaded before delivery It would be a better buy. Would not recommend.”

We're sorry to hear that our customer is unhappy with their music player. The volume control being located on the bottom of the music player and not easily accessible is part of the design of this product to prevent the volume from being changed by the user. The issue with the power is unfortunately not one that can be prevented and occurs with all music players, although we do appreciate that it may be more noticeable with this particular player. Unfortunately we aren't able to provide any music except the simple sample music that's included due to licencing laws and various other legal issues. We've done a review of our product page to see if any of the feedback provided is missing from the page however we do believe it is all included. We do have a 30 day returns policy should any of our customers decide they no longer want their player and if the ability to change volume on the device and to play the music in a "random" order would be preferred then we'd recommend our Tempo 200 player instead, product code 1005600.
