I needed a decent-sounding portable tape player for all my old (but fine condition) diverse range of cassette tapes, and this one was well-reviewed and not too expensive. I compared it to other ones of its kind, and there were cheaper ones on the market that many people rated as flimsy, not well-built, and having terrible sound. I checked reviews of this Sony model, and also compared the price at local stores and Web sellers. So far, it feels sturdy, has good sound quality, has a battery option as well as plugin, has headphone jack. Most important, it plays my tapes well with very good sound quality, the radio works likewise, and I assume the CD does too--haven't tried it yet. It's got a remote, which is a nice feature, but I haven't used it yet either. B&H was also the least expensive place I found to buy this item[...]. Thank you.

this product replaced my aiwa cassette,cd,radio in our kitchen. comparitavely the sound quality is so much weaker. the music does not resonate in the room the same way it did with our previous machine. i am quite disappointed with that aspect of it.
the mega bass makes no difference at all.
thank you,

Thanks B&H, I have never been disappointed in your products. I know I can rely on your well informed telephone reps for great advice. The sound is terrific for a small unit. We are more than pleased with it and would highly recommend it.

Comments about Sony CFD-S350SILVER CD Radio Cassette Recorder:
I had bought one of these to listen to calming music at night and felt it was holding up very well and produced a nice sound. So when the cd player in my preschool class broke, I decided to order two more: one for school and a backup for home. I still think it's a good little box but when subjected to the wear and tear and ambient noise of a preschool class, it just seems passable. Under normal circumstances, however, I'd say it's very good.

this boom box was just what I was looking for; I have many old tapes and had nothing to play them on. The sound quality is terrific and this product is easily transported to another spot. The instructions were easy to follow. I would buy it again.

Comments about Sony CFD-S350SILVER CD Radio Cassette Recorder:
My return to guest hosting the morning show on a local AM radio station led to this recent "retro purchase." I remembered how great the cassette recorder was (for making airchecks of myself) in the unit I bought in 2003 and gave to our daughter a few years later. Her unit still works, and I was becoming a pain borrowing it on a regular basis. What a thrill to find a follow-up model still in production! Its well built construction, decent tuner and CD player are fine, but the quality cassette recorder (usually an afterthought by manufacturers) sealed the deal. A great bargain for those who still use cassette and CD. Get one or more before they are gone!

This is exactly what I wanted and is a replacement for one that a friend melted in her hot car. I'm so glad that they are still made, as I really needed the cassette player too.

Comments about Sony CFD-S350SILVER CD Radio Cassette Recorder:
I gave the gift to my elderly mother (87) who has difficulty with learning new things, but she felt that she could figure out most of what she needed on her own. She found the expensive CD player my brother hooked up too confusing.
The advantage is that it combines both CD and cassette player in a lightweight package. The sound was fine if you're not an audiophile. The remote simplifies some of the options.
The disadvantage is that it uses a couple buttons on the boombox for dual purposes, and that's more confusing for her. Also, I noticed at a retail store, which had this product on display, that the CD unit had a broken cover, and the sales person attributed it to not pushing on the correct (right) side where the word "Close" was written and not in the middle or left side. This was their 3rd display replacement.

The radio is quite powerful for the purposes I bought it for, which was music for my pool deck. However, the remote is very weak (does not work at reasonable distances) and there are no buttons on the unit that allow tuning in the preset channels.

Grace, style, power, performance, and elegant looks. This Sony CFD-S350SILVER boombox has it all. Whether you wish to provide high quality background music at a child's birthday party, backyard barbecue, family picnic, listen to the ballgame, relax to the soothing comfort of a Beethoven symphony, or just simply want to rock out to your favorite band's tunes after a stressful day at work, this portable stereo is perfect for just about any music playback application. It is clear that this unit produces a remarkably large sound from a small enclosure. This Sony stereo is an old school boombox that features four high quality products. Those quality items include a digital FM/AM tuner with 30 station presets, CD player, cassette player/recorder, and two full range speakers with Mega Bass sound system. The Sony CFD-S350 boombox features a headphone jack for private listening and a full function remote commander for convenient control of the stereo from a distance. This boombox is a non-upgradeable model and was designed for customers that do not own or have no desire to own an iPod or other MP3 player. The main unit is powered by 6 D batteries and the remote control takes 2 AAA batteries. AC power is also available to the unit with the supplied, detachable AC power cord. The Sony CFD-S350 boombox is a great choice for all of your portable audio needs. Good Luck. Enjoy.
