This AIWA product is the biggest piece of junk going. Sent it back for repair three times... it still isn't right. Time to cut my losses. Off to the garbage can.

Very poor quality

Have used over a year. Now get the E03 error. Take apart..clean..works for a couple of weeks then stops. Buy something else...piece of junk. I'll never buy another Aiwa product.

Price Paid:  $0.00

Strengths:
It was ok when it worked.

Weaknesses:
Consistently stops working every few months.

Summary:
Avoid at all costs. It worked ok for a while, but then I get the E-03 error, took it to the service center, got it fixed, it worked for one day, then broke again. Sent it to Aiwa, got it back, it worked for a few months, now it's broken again.

Price Paid:  $0.00

Strengths:
uh, well, it can sort of play CD''s, when it works, unit lloks cool with the fancy lights and windows.

Weaknesses:
Makes a better wheel chock.

Summary:
Worked fine right up until the warantee was up, then, all hell broke loose. "e-03" constantly, probelms with the Treble quality (constant static on high-pitch sounds). Strangely, cant find anywhere to get help on how to fix this problem. Not even gonna bother with those usless Best Buy "techs"...riiight, techs....

Price Paid:  $160.00

Strengths:
High quality for the money
Includes a wireless remote which no other unit in this price range has. I have driven the car over very bumpy roads without any skipping on the cd's

Weaknesses:
Sound is not as good as a direct wired unit, but that is, I believe, inherent in an FM modulated player (one that plays through the FM radio)

Summary:
I have been very impressed by the product so far. I installed it in a 1994 Geo Prism (same as a Toyota Corolla). The installation went smoothly and the unit has worked as advertised
