Sony CFD-E95L CD Radio Cassette

Our Sony CFD-E95L has been in constant use for over three years now, both in the house and outside when having BBQ's, or simply lazing in the sun.We paid £90 for ours, and are very happy with what we have.The ability to change colours is novel, perhaps a bit pointless. And the rotating knob changes track or radio station rather than volume, which I would have preferred.

Although it has pleasing aesthetics, and the coloured display is very beautiful, there are problems with the functionality of the mechanics. I have had problems with doors and keys that jam, and CD player only worked for 4 months.

The Sony CFD-E95L CD Radio Cassette should not cost more than 50 Euros.

Sony have proved again that looks are decieving, with poor parts and build quality in the Sony CFD-E95L. The CD player lasted less than 6 months and the sound is poor quality. CD-R replay was temperamental (when it was working). It is also frustrating that you have to re-save all the radio channels if ever you have a powercut as there is no means for a small back up battery. The radio is otherwise good and it is handy to have a backlit display.
