Review by TREVARTHEN Alan for Sony D-NF340 MP3 Personal CD Player – Black Rating:
I ordered via Amazon.UK a Sony walkman CD player that reads CDs recorded in MP3 format. It is for my 94 year old mother to listen to archaeological and other reports that I get as podcasts.
It arrived within 2 days from kkelectronics and works perfectly. We are very happy with it, especially the fact that once stopped, it resumes where it was stopped, very useful when there are a hundred or so MP3 tracks, or 30 or so hours recorded. The radio works well too.
However, there was no AC adaptor in the pack. The Amazon advert stated that there is an AC adaptor included in the box.
I emailed kkelectronics about this and got the following reply.
“Hi
Amazon listing is incorrect-if look in the leaflet with the product,it lists what is included in the pack
you can return it for full refund
regards
jawar”
I don’t want to return it for a full refund. My mother loves this little machine. The machine itself deserves a 5 out of 5. However we now have to spend another 20 pounds on top of the machines original 38 pounds cost to get a Sony AC adaptor that the Amazon advert said was included.
Because of this I only rate this Sony D-NF340 MP3 CD Walkman at 3 stars

I bought this for my father, who cannot read now and had to switch to audiobooks. He is quite happy with the player. A nice feature is that he can stop his book, listen to FM news or something, and then resume from the same place. But the controls were not easy to use for the first days.

I bought my first Sony D-NF340 MP3 in August 2007. It worked well until November 2008 (when just out of guarantee). I ordered another one that month – this, too, has now proved faulty (March 2009). The cd playing mode is certainly slightly noisy, but the radio is excellent and I use a charger and Sony MDR-EX7ISL headphones with superior sound – essential as I do not sleep well and listen a lot in bed. For this reason, I am about to order yet another one, but enquire whether I can pay for an extended insurance. I am very careful with it and would expect a Sony product to be more reliable. This is the reason I have given a rating of only three stars.

I bought the system on amazon.uk as far as I can’t find the product in France. It is very robust, good working, beautiful sound, very nice radio on FM, very easy to use, economical with the batteries. Two criticisms : The cd player is a bit noisy… the CD text does not work on traditionnal CDs (but ok on MP3). I think I would buy another one, if necessary. I have had other CD players from other manufacturers, really not so good…

The Sony D-NF340 MP3 Personal CD Player does exactly what it says it will do. I can stop my book anywhere, turn off the player and when I switch it on again, it starts again where it stopped. No searching back and forth to find my place. I use it at home, in the car and walking and there is no jumping or stopping. I can even take the CD out, play a music CD, then put the Audiobook back in and it still starts again at the right place.
