Product Review (submitted on September 3, 2022):

Had the turntable for about 18 months and have absolutely loved it. I do want to say it is not perfect though and there are some things I wish I had known before I bought it. Here are some of those:-A few parts are made of plastic and are rather flimsy and cheap looking.-The tonearm lock has chipped some of the paint on the tonearm over time because it is cheap plastic-The dust cover is a dust, fingerprint, and scratch magnet-I had an issue for a month or so where some of the lighter records would not play correctly because the cue arm would not fully lower the records. I learned this is because I would not keep it lowered in between playing records and eventually it stopped lowering fully. This is my fault but I wish they would have explained this better in the instructions to prevent these kinds of problems.Overall though it is a great turntable and as a bonus they do have a great technical support team that helped me work through some of these problems and of course has a killer price.
