Editorial Review:
The Sony WM-FX197 AM/FM Radio/Cassete Walkman(R) Player lets you hear your old mix tapes and listen to your favorite radio stations while you travel. The Mega Bass(R) Sound delivers powerful bass and the Automatic Volume Limiter System (AVLS) maintains a strong signal for maximum listening comfort. The slim design makes it easy to carry anywhere.

Why not take you tunes along with you? You can do it affordably with the Sony WM-FX197 AM/FM cassette Walkman. Pop in a tape, or tune your favorite station on the AM/FM radio. You'll also hear richer, deeper lows with Sony's mega-bass technology. This little number sips the juice, too, so you can enjoy your music up to 25 hours on two AA batteries. Stereo headphones, as well as a belt clip, are included.

Sony Walkman:
After reading the reviews at Amazon for other less expensive portable cassette players, I decided to purchase the Sony WM-FX197 AM/FM Cassette Walkman. I'm glad I bought this more expensive model. It's sturdy and plays tapes great. I've even dropped it once and no problems. The best feature is that it takes two AA batteries which means it has more power and the sound/audio is strong. It's definitely worth the money.
Fine Product, But...:
This is a fine, sturdy, simple AM-FM cassette player, easy for my 89 year old blind father to operate, but this price is incredible. It was less than $20 when I last bought it from Amazon a year or so ago. Now, it's not from but 'through' Amazon, and the price has quintupled. Too much for me, especially since it's still available for under $20 from other sources. Not like Amazon to let this happen.
good if you still even use a walkman:
great if you still even have cassettes great price
fast shipping from amazon
Greatly welcomed:
My husband is blind suffering from Macular Degenration. We often have long waits at Doctors offices etc. and he like to take his Sony to listen to tapes of book or just music. Help pass the time better.
