Pros: works right out of the package! i plugged it in and it works! lights up to know if working or not! and works GREAT! cant go wrong with this item at all! works the way it should work!

Cons: wiring is short for the hook in,but i dont find it a problem.some people might find it a problem.

Pros: VERY LOUD!very great brand! if your just looking for a small boom box to carry for a pic nic, practice hip hop, or for work! this little boom box will blow you away! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! luckily i got this for 28 bucks,which was a steal deal! if you EVER find it for a deal like that dont let it pass by!

Cons: no cons at all! altec stays true to their name!

Overall Review: i definitely would have bout 2 or 3 more and give it to friends as gifts for christmas or bday gift!
