- Radio pre-set selection a bit fiddly - can't be done solely by touch whilst being worn (as can the tape controls)

- Good points:
- Has auto reverse and only takes one battery
- Bad points:
- can't hear it!!! Highest volume is so quiet you can hear all the external sounds over what you're listing too on the tape!!

Here’s a list of the questions other shoppers have asked owners of the Sony WMFX290
-
are the controls easy to use? I have arthritic fingers and find that some recorders have tiny controls.
-
The radio buttons are easy, just flat to press, the tape buttons are firm but big enough. The little set up buttons for stereo/mono, initial tuning, bass, etc are more fiddly but once set up, rarely changed. Regards Geoff.
-
Hello Ken,
The fact is that this player is not much bigger than a cassette tape means that the size of the buttons are small, but they are easily operated!
I am 73 years old & I don`t have any difficulty useing this player.
I am lucky enough not to be afflicted with arthtitis.
Regards: Wm T G Gordon.

I recently bought some C90 (minutes) and D120s I think on Amazon (I am not at home at present) they arestill freely available in packs of 5 or 10 and not very expensive, Regards Geoff.
