Advantages: Long battery life; durable. Disadvantages: Wide and slightly bulky.
The Panasonic SL-SX390 Personal CD Player was the second personal CD player I ever owned. The first was an old Goodmans model, which didn't have anti-shock, ate batteries up like a starving teenager, and was not very durable at all - I dropped it from about waist height onto carpet by accident and it broke, forcing me to seek an alternative product - this one.
