I bought two of these units. The first purchase worked, then the CD player became unable to identify the CD to be played and would give a "No CD Present". After cleaning the CD's, and the player itself, it continued until it no longer played any CD's. GE's quality control is terrible. I since brought this one back and returned it for the same model, and the same issues are creeping back. This is garbage. Go for the Sony model if possible.
