Sony WMFS497 Sports Walkman

I love this walkman. It's sturdy, has great sound, and the extra bass can knock you over! The earphones are the MOST comfortable I have ever worn. It has a clock, timer, and AM/FM, and automatic reverse on tapes so I don't have to stop and flip the tape while working out at the gym. I am very happy with this purchase and highly recommend it to others.

I bought this back in early March. Tonight I finally had a chance to Test it. As soon as I bump or touch a button the FM Tuner shuts off. My plan was to use this a source unit for a set of amplified speakers on my motorcycle. Now it looks like I need to find something else to use.

This is the first time that I myself have been involved in an on line product ordering. I was sure it was a hassle not worth the time and or savings. However, my experience with Amazon was a pleasent experience. If I ever do choose to order products on line ( I doubt I will) I would not hesitate to use Amazon if possible and would recommend Amazon to friends. There were pictures of various types of the cassette/radio player I was interested in with good written description and that gave me the opportunity toselect the proper product for my use and I am very pleased with the product, the ordering experience and the overall service.
Thanks,

It's getting more and more difficult to find personal cassette players today, but more and more people are listening to audiobook cassettes. Well this is the personal cassette player you need. It has every thing you'd want. I especially like the auto-reverse component. The only thing I'd change is the headset. I changed mine out for ear-buds.

I ordered this for my wife,a runner. This is her favorite model in over 30 years of running.
