Pros: easy to use
Cons: no reverse on tape deck

As said,: there should be a reverse as well as a forward on tape deck.+ on turn table I shouldn't have to stop the turn table by going to the back of the unit itself to turn it off as I think it's a health & safety issue.

Pros: easy to use, great to be able to copy LPs and tapes, looks neat
Cons: cannot record on CD-RW, Must have a brand name CD to record, e.g Sony - will not finalise on store brand

Pity about the finalising as I usually buy CD R/RW from my local supermarket. Spoilt the product a bit for me!

A very good system at a resonable price. The recording and playback quality is excellent. However, despite what the instruction manual states, it will not record on CD-RW discs which is rather disappointing.

Nice looking. Getting to grips with operating (for me) not as straight forward as I would like. Takes its time in going through the neccessary stages. Makes rather a lot of noise during some parts of the operation (this has been stated as normal). Having said all that I am quite pleased with it and I can copy to CD all of my vinyls and tapes, which is what I wanted.
