5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Fit, December 18, 2005

I looked for a long time for a stereo, boombox or undercounter radio that would fit well in my kitchen. I wanted something that would fit in a small space but still sound good and be able to tune in my favorite radio station which is not always easy to get in. I read tons of reviews and was getting very discouraged. But the Sony CFD-E100 is perfect for my needs. It sounds great, looks good, takes up only a little space and does *not* use the cord as an antenna - which I have found to be an annoying "feature" of some radios. Also, the case is that same white appliance plastic that my coffee maker and toaster are made from, so it blends well in my kitchen and is easy to clean. I also think it's attractive with the blue accents. To save space, the CD player is vertical and in the front, while the cassette player is in the back. So you can't see the cassette player from the front, which confused my husband for a minute. But there's no reason that one way or the other has to be... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars CD player went bad immediately...No Disk error, June 21, 2006

I loved this unit... the size, the sound, the footprint. And the name SONY. But just after a few times, the CD player went bad. Now, when I put in a disk, I simply get a "No Disk" error. It has become a Radio-Tape boombox, no CD. Very disappointed. Then I went on the web and found others have been having this kind of problem with other SONY units and bemoaning the loss of the once revered SONY quality.

I understand things can go wrong and I am left wondering whether this was a stray problem or due to poor manufacturing quality. In either case I am stuck!

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Package, December 19, 2005
By 
Pawan K. (Morrisville, NC USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony CFD-E100 Portable CD Radio Cassette Recorder (Electronics)
I bought this just last week. Amazon's delivery was on commited time. I was looking for a small, compact CD player that also have radio and cassette player. This Sony CFD-E100 exactly fit my bill. I have following observations to make for this player:

Pros:

1. Nice looks, compact size.

2. Good audio quality, for CDs and Cassettes.

3. Nice FM reception.

Cons:

1. You won't be able to preset FM channels without reading manual.

2. MegaBass is not that effective (if you are not audiophile, it is still good).

3. No MP3 support, this would have been great otherwise.
