Pop Idol KL1

The Pop Idol KL1 karaoke machine is, in my opinion, the best model in the Pop Idol range. The newer model which was bought out after the KL1 is not a patch on this one. Everyone who saw it commented on how nice it looked and sounded. Both old and young had a fabulous time with this machine, and my parties always go with a swing when I get this system out!

The Pop Idol KL1 Karaoke is a versatile machine as it has both CD and cassette options, therefore allowing you to record your own performance. It is easy to use and set-up as the machine simply connects to the television that which displays all the lyrics. It has a nice disco lights feature to help set the tone and will certainly be a great Christmas present for children and drunk relatives!

However there are a couple of drawbacks, firstly there is a safety issue as the lights may get hot during usage, therefore it is advised that children are supervised during usage, obviously this creates a problem as the point of getting a child a karaoke machine is to leave them to their own devices with their friends. Secondly, it doesn't come cheap, we paid £150 for our machine, and to be honest there are probably better machines out there for the money, so you are in effect paying for the Pop Idol brand name to some extent.

However it did its job for us and was a gratefully received present so we are not dissatisfied with the purchase.
