Reshow Cassette Player – Portable Tape Player Captures MP3 Audio Music via USB – Compatible with Laptops and Personal Computers – Convert Tape Cassettes to iPod Format (Silver)ClimatePartner certified

I a walkman with a reverse play function in order to listen to some meditation tapes. After doing some research , I decided on the Reshow walkman and I was not disappointed. It is of simple yet excellent build quality, and works equally well with the provided cable or with batteries (though I prefer the cable). The reverse play function, which was most important for me, works perfectly. It is very lightweigh, so easy and comfortable to carry with you in your pocket, even when jogging. Finally the customer service from Reshow is very good indeed. Quick clear communication and very helpful. If you're looking for a good value walkman, I highly recommend this excellent one from Reshow.

Very good item. Only thing is it could be better at holding a constant speed.

The media could not be loaded. The first cassette player I ordered was faulty (played a bit fast) but I emailed the company to find a solution. They were so quick at responding and sent me a replacement right away. It works so well and the sound quality is great. It is easy to use and love that I can record my tapes onto my laptop. The buttons are sturdy and the whole thing fits in my pocket easily. Would highly reccomend this product especially for the price. Get to listen to all my old tapes :)

I bought this to transfer some spoken word audio tapes onto my computer, for digital archiving and the future. It does indeed appear as a sound device on both PC and Mac and Audacity or similar can be used to record from a playing tape.So far so good. Unfortunately, the mechanism isn't as precise as tape decks back in the day, so there's noticeable wow and flutter, plus the speed is about 5% too fast. So everyone's voices are a bit too high! There's also quite a bit of digital noise.Happily, Audacity or similar (open source software) makes it trivial to adjust the pitch and reduce the noise. So I achieved my objective. Just be aware that this is a cheap bit of kit and don't expect to use it for transferring music of any importance!

If anybody has experience with a Recorder that offers direct USB output (which delivers a much cleaner signal than one that goes through analog audio channel) AND works as advertised, I'd be very grateful.RESHOW RECORDER REIVEW1. FLIMSY BUILD - ’Nuff said.2. LABELS ON CASSETTE FLAP PRINTED UPSIDE DOWN. Making you think you’re playing Side A when you’re actually playing Side B.3. CONTROL SWITCH LABELS UNREADABLE. They are small and lightly embossed in the cheap metal. You must hold the recorder up to a bright light to create shadowed letters that you can read with a magnifying glass.4. REWIND SWITCH DOESN’T POP OUT WHEN REWIND IS DONE.Requiring you to peer closely (I have to use a flashlight) to determine if the spindles have stopped spinning.5. REQUIRES 5 VOLT ADAPTER that’s not included.6. Instructions recommend you download Audacity to capture the audio signal. The current version, 3.2.x, works brilliantly for high-end audio editing. It does not work so well capturing audio signals on older computers, even using Windows 10. Fortunately, I have an old ACER running Windows 8.1 and Audacity 2.1.2 that works brilliantly.7. CONTINUOUS / SINGLE-SIDE SWITCH DOES NOT WORK.No matter how you flip the SINGLE SIDE RECORD / CONTINUOUS switch, the unit will not stop and will continue recording until presumably, there is no more storage space left on the disk.This is the deal breaker for me I would put up with the myriad shortcomings in the Recorder the digital signal was clearer than with my high-end Sony tape deck. Unfortunately, There is not enough time in my life to check and see when The A Side has stopped recording and flip the cassette over.

Great little player . I had loads of old cassettes and they are now MP3's on my PC . Very easy to use one lead takes signal to PC and powers device . Really good buy

Did exactly what it's supposed to do. A1*****

Works well if a little basic. Useful to be able to play old cassettes. As others have mentioned the plastic finish looks cheap and a bit brittle. Then again not buying this for it's looks and for £20 unreasonable to expect higher quality.
