## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Sound, HORRIBLE Dust Cover
*by P***. on July 2, 2024*

I would absolutely LOVE this turntable were it not for the misengineered dust cover ( the screws came completely out of the hinges/plinth after minimal use. As many may know this table is manufactured by a third party (parties) I believe the tonearm and platter are from one and motor and plinth ( and the awful cover from another ( all assembled by the cover culprit) . If you can overlook (and fix) the bad cover, this is a really good bang for the buck table.
