Questions & Answers

Does it have a rechargeable battery? How many watts does it have?

There is no rechargeable component, but it plugs into the wall not sure the wattage. It is imperative that you have access to power. Plugging it in a wall outlet is how it is done. I would say that this product is geared toward kids and people who just want to have fun.

Can this be used by children of any age?

It's the kids. The one we have for our 11-year-old is for him. It might be a lot of fun for families, too.

What are the compatibility options for MP player ?

That's not the case, in my opinion. Unfortunately, we have not found a way to connect them.

If you purchase a certain type of instrumental cd you can play on this, the words will then display?

You can buy karaoke versions with words displayed on the CDs, but I do not yet have them

The replacement unit has been returned
3/5

The product was not outside packaged, nor was there any bubble wrap it came in the product packaging. The box was beat to bits with tape in some areas and places on it. Is it possible the product There were no lyrics displayed on the screen, but the sound was good. I walked into a room that did not light up at all and in the middle there was a fuzzy, Silver dollar-sized A screen that looks like old television screens when the picture has blown When I called the manufacturers' customer service, they told me to call Amazon or send it back. 'There is a 90 day warranty, but I will have to pay to send it back to them, and it won't be quicker for me to return it. ' I would like a replacement of the product since it meets our requirements well. Let's hope the next one comes in working order and is shipped more carefully this time.

No big deal
4/5

It didn't work at all when we received it. Using a single DC adapter we already owned, we were able to turn it on. We didn't have the provided cord, so it might have been due to that, but the screen didn't work and the volume kept going up and down. I exchanged the items quickly, but had to wait a while to get a I replaced the machine, and it worked very well. Its screen is quite dim and its microphone volume fluctuates, but it works fine nonetheless. Using Bluetooth, you can only get music through the machine, so if you wish to get lyrics, you need to use a second device.
This was a gift for my daughters and they don't seem to notice.

It uses a CRT display but has a great build quality
5/5

In a nutshell, To meet my requirements, I needed something small, cheap, and easy to operate. Everything worked as expected. It came carefully wrapped when it arrived, and I opened it up and tested it, and it worked perfectly. The tube display is the only thing that makes it different from others I considered. It's a good and sturdy little monitor, built solidly, screen is great, its only frustrating flaw is the size. In light of the fact that it was made in 2016, I am pointing it out. It looks good and is accurate no matter how you look at it. The fact that you can connect Bluetooth, aux, and 2 microphone jacks makes it more flexible than just a cd player/karaoke machine. The speaker is very loud and good, and I like that it has the echo and the balance between more vocals and As soon as this one goes out, hopefully not soon, I am going to get another one. It is a little heavy since it uses a tube display so it may be heavy to move from room to room. As for the dual lines of text, if you look at the back there are 3 knobs, one for brightness, one for contrast and the other for When you move the V hold knob you will be able to get rid of the duplicate lines and fine tune the jitteryness of the image. A few months from now, I can update this review. On the left, the brightness knob is on, on the middle, the contrast knob is on, and on the right, the V hold knob is on.

It was a lot Today I got this in the mail
5/5

In the early 1990s, I met my husband at a Karaoke bar. We haven't been in years, so I got this for us for our anniversary since we have missed the singing. The sound was good and the user interface was easy. Right now, I have a great feeling.

This product had a terrible screen, and I never got to use it until another party in January
3/5

I ordered this product for a party in September that ended up getting canceled, so I never got to use it. The only thing that I was looking for was a product that actually worked and wasn't just top notch! On the screen, multiple lines appeared at once while the CD was playing. Upon calling the manufacturer, I was told that there was nothing I could do since the product only had a 90-day Who knows who was right on this one since that was after Amazon told me that I had a one year warranty? felt like the manufacturer refused to help me solve a problem with their own defective product. All I wanted was for it to be exchanged for something that worked, but I got nothing in exchange. I would not recommend this item for its price. The screen is extremely grainy when it comes to black and white and the item is made in a cheap way.

You won't get your money's worth! My first question is, where do I start? There are lights! Lights that were terrible, terrible They flash so fast that the function buttons are impossible to see
3/5

Turning them off is not possible. My speaker and microphone are both noisy, as if the wires were shorted out somewhere. I had to return mine. There is nothing special about it, and I did not think it was worth the $65+ I paid for it.

It works three times out of three
3/5

It's hard to tell how good this is in terms of quality. Initially, it took 3 of them (we returned 2 of them) before we decided on one that would work. I couldn't get the volume to work in the first one One wouldn't even turn on the other wouldn't turn off Having problems with the volume control button, the third device works fine, but after turning it on, it cuts off- You can leave it even all the way up and there will be no problem (which is fine for our six year old).
