Why won't my CD player play CD's
Review of Goodmans GCD820 by
jacksonandy
Advantages: Smart design and good value
Disadvantages: Choosy about what it plays
...play OK except on the Goodmans machine – it just comes up ‘No Disc’.
Unfortunately the machine went back to the shop to be exchanged for a rather nice Phillips, which plays everything with no problems. So far!. It cost 10 quid more, but without the radio or recharge option.
As a footnote, I give full credit to Comet for exchanging the machine with no quibble and even offering a refund.
I would however criticise Goodmans for putting no warnings ... ...Sorry if this review isn't glowing and up beat, and I hope the nice men from Goodmans don't turn up on my doorstep!! But as far as I'm concerned that's what Ciao is about - you benefit from my misfortune - now, did I tell you about my ex-wife........................ ...

Goodmans Good Deal
Review of Goodmans GCD716R by
Kingkarliii
Advantages: shock resistant
Disadvantages: overall size is rather large
Why did I choose this persional CD player when there is a huge market for CD players out there, well quite simply because it was cheap and done all the things that I wanted it to do. This player had every thing come with it, anti-shock tray for in the car with all the kit to attach it to our outdated Car cassette player and also a recharger adapter.
***Style & Shape***
It is silver egg-shaped player with a circle in the middle containing all the ... ...a purple transparent donut. It is also available in different colours, pink being one of them.
***Functions***
This is quite a simple player and has just the basics, play/pause, stop, skip forwards, skip backwards. A mode button that you can set up on repeat or shuffle and a program button so that you can just listen to your favourites and not have to go through all the tracks. As well as this like I said earlier it has a 45 second anti-shock/anti-roll ...

Goodmans CDMP352 CD player
Review of Goodmans CDMP352 by
bagoproverbial
Advantages: good sound quality
Disadvantages: poor anti-shock, bass system muffling
The Goodmans CDMP352 CD player is an attractive-looking CD walkman which provides ease of use and the ability to play MP3s which these days is always helpful. The sound quality is generally very good, however I was a bit concerned at the mega-bass feature which when turned on, seems to have the effect of "clouding" the treble frequency and causing a certain amount of distortion with some music which is already bass-heavy.
Probably the most annoying ... ...to work properly. Like many people I have the CD walkman with me when I go jogging, and it can be quite annoying when the music plays in fits and starts even when held as securely as practically possible.
All in all I probably wouldn't recommend this to potential buyers. It does play mp3 files, but then again I hope to be getting an mp3 player soon so won't need that facility. The anti-shock is fairly poor and although as I stated the sound quality ...

All you need in one great portable disc player
Review of Goodmans GCD712 by
dioleeds
Advantages: Jog proof, light, easy to use,Programmable
Disadvantages: Battery life not great but probably as good as most with full shock protection
This is the best personal disc player i've used.
It's a nice silver With an easy to read display, the butons are nicely laid out & are different size/shape so you can feel the buttons without having to look. It's got plenty of features ranging from programme to random, recharges batteries, see full list below. The headphones are OK & have an in-line volumr control, It has a line out socket so it can be player through your car stereo or speakers( ... ...shock protection(jog proof) means you can use in the car or when out walking/running with no fear of it skipping and the DBBS bass boost gives it a really good sound no matter what you listen to.
All this for under £60( from Index) I use Duracell batteries( it take 2 AA) and they last reasonably well. it has a power saving mode which switches off at the end of playing cd (Approx 60 secs) You can use rechargeable batteries & it comes with an AC power ...

Hee Haw
Review of Goodmans GCD720RAH by
Nar
Advantages: none
Disadvantages: none
Hello and welcome to the review that should have been here. It was here but its not here now as I have taken it and put it into my private stash somewhere else. It may well appear somewhere else online and if it does it will have my name on it. Thank you to everyone, to all the people in my COT over the years who have stuck by me and who have been great influences over the reviews I have written. It is indeed a sad case that reviewers have to come ... ...sense at all when the original content should be listed and frankly because of endless problems with Ciao I no longer have the time and energy to carry on. Each time I tried, it didn't work. Each message I sent to other members, they didn't appear. Each rate I applied, it didn't show. So that's the end of it. Ty for reading. ...
