When looking to buy a portable cd player the prices vary greatly with low end machines costing only £20, compared to the top end machines costing around £140. Even a low cost portable cd player will come with features such as a 45 seconds anti shock system, over-head style headphones included and 20 track programmable system, random/repeat play and M-Bass technology. When looking at the top end machines they obviously come with a lot more features such as optical digital out for direct digital recording, CD text, remaining battery life indicator, CD-R/CD-RW playback, charging cradle , carry case and more. The most important thing to consider when buying high end cd players is the sound quality, we found it's far superior, and the build quality would indicate that the chances of it breaking will be less.

My version of this player must be around three years old now, and it's given me flawless performanced during this period of time. It didn't cost the earth when I purchased it and combined with the excellent sound quality was a great buy. The only drawbacks i've found is the size being a little too big, and it needs a backlit or a remote for easy access to the play functions. Despite the things I mentioned i love this player and think it's great value for money, it has lasted me 3 years.

Portable CD players are a popular small electrical appliance, becoming less in shops due to portable mp3 players such as the iPod. Expect prices to be lower therefore, and stock to become low.
