Lousy
Supposedly not even made by Toshiba, just a company they allowed to use the name, and it shows. I like Toshiba's PC products, but this "boombox" is a disappointment. For one, it feels very insubstantial taken out of the box. I think McDonald's toy plastic is higher quality. Worse, everything you'd think would be a good feature, isn't. The lights are terrible, as all they do is one thing: flash like a bicyclist's taillight. They do nothing else. If they danced with the music, I'd change my review, because turning them off is a pain. It's the last option in the cycle. Every time power is removed from the stereo, indeed, you will have to turn off the lights.
The remote feels awful, and some functions, like skipping to the next track on a CD, require two presses. The volume only requires one, go figure.
Despite having 4 speakers, they all sound dreadful. Worse, none of them are substantially protected from debris or piercing objects, as they only have a plastic "bar" protecting them, which will undeniably be confused with handles to carry it. Even worse, the sound shaping options make it go from "dreadful" to "throw it over the fence".
What made me return it is, no SLEEP option. That's 100% my fault, I didn't check to see if it had this feature that every stereo boombox I've ever used in my life had. Instead, I bought a Sony ZS-PS50 which, while smaller with two speakers and no remote, sounds infinitely better with the mega bass toggled on (which it is by default). The Toshiba is a stinker for the price, and belongs with all the other Aliexpess garbage heavily promoted on Amazon. It's worth, maximum, 30 bucks with free shipping. Avoid this trash.Read full review
