Customer Reviews:

2 out of 5 stars It will last you 3 months tops.......2007-03-28

I swim almost every day for about 30-45 minutes. I thought it would be really neat to try to add music to my workout so I got MP120 as it was the only player under 100 at that time. First thing I noticed about MP120 was that the headphone wires were too much in the way and needed to be tucked under the swimming cap or wound around the goggle strap. Second and far more annoying problem was that the ear buds would fall out whenever I immersed in the water or tried to do a flip. So if you are only planning to use a kick board, this player may be great for you, for free style, [...] stroke, butter fly, or flips, I wouldn't recommend it.

After about 3 months, the water started getting into the ear buds and I noticed corrosion in and around the headphone speakers. It wasn't long before the left speaker started buzzing and the sound was seriously degraded.

The customer support for Oregon Scientific is absolutely of the worst kind. Long wait times, false promises and no records of previous calls are all too common. I called three times just to get a request in for a replacement ear buds. The person took the request, and said they would ship a new replacement free of charge since the product was still under the warranty. After three weeks I still haven't received anything. I tried calling the support again and after about 40 minutes of waiting I got to the same person I talked to the last time, however he had no recollection of me and was not able to pull anything on his computer, so he took the order again. I called again 6 months later and asked if they could try shipping the replacement since I haven't received it, but this time I was told my product is no longer under warranty and that I would have to buy a new MP3 player. Nice.

My next set will be Finis SwimMp3 Player which I have heard is superior in many ways.

Update (April 4, 2007): I did received a call from Oregon Scientific tech support on March 28 with an apology and a claim that they are commited on improving the user experience. I got the new set of ear buds the other day, and they seem to have a better design. For one, they don't fall out anymore and the sound is better. On the older set, the sound would degenerate when the cap was placed over the buds. The new head phones don't have this problem. I'm willing to give them another try.

3 out of 5 stars Wish I had a different one........2006-03-05

I bought this product to be able to use in the rain and it is great for that. However, it has been difficult for me to learn how to use it. Also, the adapters that go in the ear quickly fell off, were lost & now the headphones are uncomfortable.

4 out of 5 stars no voice recorder.......2005-12-02

Despite Amazon's title, this product does not appear to have a voice recorder according to the manual from the manufacturer's website.

5 out of 5 stars It's aliiive!.......2005-11-17

I had to write a positive review after I swam with this device, but hadn't tightly screwed in the bottom with my trusty nickel. It promptly filled with water, and my techie husband declared it trash. I waited a week for it to dry out, plugged it in, and it totally works again!

On a side note, I've abandoned the protective swimming caps . . . since they're way too big, and it's still working fine (plus, I can hear better). The radio works really well too!

Always tightly secure the bottom before swimming!

1 out of 5 stars Save your money.......2005-10-04

After using this product several times I find it to be lacking. The sound quality is very poor and takes me back to the transister radio days. I've also just found that if you screw the waterproof bottom in too tightly it affects the earbuds adversely. Take my advice and pass on this one.
