What's great about it: I guess the price is good
What's not so great: Doesn't last long!!!
I have bought 3 of these! The only reason I kept getting it is because they're inexpensive. I frequently used it since I used it for practicing dance, but every few months, I would just stop working! I couldn't turn it on and nothing would work! I only payed the first time and exchanged it for a new one the other two times. I will absolutely not be buying it again! Sure, the price is nice, but it has a short lifespan. The sound is okay, nothing special. I never really liked the design; my iPod touch kept falling out and disconnecting. It's easily portable, but be sure to be very careful: that's how it broke the first time.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Value, sound, portability
What's not so great: Not user friendly
This is okay for the price but is very poorly designed. The headphone jack is in the back and it has an IR remote that you aim at the front. The front stays lit at all times making sure you burn through the maximum number of batteries possible with the least amount of information showing (volume and source only).
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Portability and Price
What's not so great: Nothing
I would highly recommend this Memorex miniMove Portable Boombox. If you are on the go just use the batteries or if you are staying in one place just use the AC plug. It works for any lifestyle.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: not much
What's not so great: defective speaker
I got this unit for Christmas. Out of the box it had a defective speaker, very crackly sounding. The problem was both with the radio and Ipod. I returned it to the store and am shopping for a different model. Ipod mount seemed flimsy.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Cool Looking, good sound
What's not so great: Poor radio reception, ipod dock breaks very easily
This little machine looks like a nice boombox. When you're looking for a nice product you think this is a good one because it looks cool.
When I bought it the sound with the ipod ws really good, the problem is that the little ipod dock got damage very easily. So bad, i did like it.
Now I'm going back to Best Buy to buy a different ipod boombox
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Compact, good sound
What's not so great: Would like to be able to scroll thru songs without taking iPod off Dock.
I bought this for my eight yr old who uses his iPod all the time. He loves the miniMove. It's easy to move around the house from his room to the playroom. It's smaller that I expected, but that is nice. My son would like to be able to scroll thru the songs without taking the iPod off the miniMove.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Size, sound(volume)
What's not so great: radio
I really would keep this if all I wanted was the ipod feature. I was looking for something that I could play the radio through while I was at work but it has poor reception. I would recommend this to someone else that was maybe in a better area for the radio but for the ipod feature it was great!
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is the best little ipod player I've purchased. You can take it to the pool since it's battery operated in addition to playing from an outlet on your back porch! Good sound and easy to operate. Love it! Purchasing for Christmas gifts to share with friends and family.

The sound is horrible. I teach dance to small children and used this for 2 months. The AC/power cord no longer works. I called the company and it costs $35 to replace, almost the cost of a new one.

What's great about it: NICE SIZE
What's not so great: Not really that loud its hard to hear certain songs, distorted when volume is high
If you are going to use for in house, i would say its an good option, but anywhere outside you would be taking your chances. But overrall its a good little player, i am about to return mine ive had it for 2days now. Just not to my liking but like i said inside it will be great
