This thing is horrible. Don't buy it. All I needed was something to play my cassettes, and was extremely disappointed with the sound quality. Loud buzzing, screeching, and beeping in background non-stop.

I returned mine because the batteries would not fit. Had a $10 one I ordered at the same time that worked well.

If the batteries fit, it'll play them. I had to buy two, for the first one's batteries did not fit. Flimsy; but there aren't that many choices.

I can only answer indirectly, since I no longer have a car equipped for cassettes. The cars I owned previously (1993 Jeep & 1983 Saab) played such cassettes without any problems.

Yes, the left cassette machine records. It's a great unit, allowing myself to play all of my old homemade cassettes from the last 40 years and making some really good new ones too.

Hello, yes you can use it like the old phonograph, I have used mine a lot since receiving it and have only used it to play records and it does that well.

I was able to convert several cassettes to cd and mp3 but the converter died and I had to find a different unit to finish my project. This USB unit is cheaply made and not reliable. Sorry.

It's ok Ill always love digital recording for the lack of audio deterioration. However the least expensive alternative will always be tape deck to cassette

Oh, yes, it does play cassettes, and very well, too. I'd highly recommend it for your mom or for anyone else, as availability for buying (good) boom boxes with tape-playing capabilities dwindles with each passing quarter. Hope this helps!

Yes, the Panasonic RQ2102 will play all of the old Cassette tapes, and this recorded isone of the best on the market in my opinion. My Father-In-Law had one that was over 30 years old and it still worked like new. You can't go wrong on this recorder.

Oh, yes, it does, and plays them great. And that is why I bought TWO of them...A friend and I both had tons of cassettes and just hated to think of never hearing them again. Any box that plays cassettes is really rare these days.

i am very satisfied with the tascam 222slmkii. to date i have used it to to transfer music and language recordings from cassette tapes to cds.the machine worked flawlessly. it certainly can play cassette tapes and cds through a receiver and separate speakers. i don't have a turntable but my guess is that it will work. you can contact tascam for the information. if you buy the tascam, i think you will enjoy it. good luck.

Well I really don't know, but hang on I will check right away, nope sorry no games, and no phone, but plenty of other stuff you can do with this unit. I have an older vehicle with a cassette player so I hook it up in my vehicle and play mps's from it onto a cassette drive. With the right dollar store disc. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask...

Maybe because I like to play my CDs without having to insert them one at a time? Also cassettes - some of us still have them!!

no cassettes are needed; it's all digital and stored in the recorder's memory. I really like mine and find it very easy to use,

You can record with cassette player, the problem I found was that it took a while to play. For some unknow reason, the system was slow. Sorry, I can't tell you more because I returned the system.

I have played some old tapes and the sound is perfect, the unit has been flawless so far, highly recommend!

I returned it the quality of sound was horrible. I just use the cassette adapter and get the best sound. Good luck

No this will not work. It is just for duplicating CD's.You need something like the TASCAM CC-222SLmkII . This sells for $599.00 on Amazon.Ther may be less expensive units on the market but be careful as some units record to cd or cassette from an external source but don't directly record from cassette to cd. (Rather strange) One unit would record from cd to cassette but not the other way. (Why would you want to do that?)
