I am a medical transcriptionist and while the physician dictates on one of these, I was using a transcriber machine which had been acting up lately. Since I wasn't sure whether it was the physician's recorder, the transcriber, or even the tapes, I decided to purchase this so I had a means to troubleshoot as well as having a backup recorder in the event I needed to listen to one of the tapes by another means. The microcassette system is slowly becoming obsolete and many are now going digital, but for a physician who already has the entire setup for microcassette, it is a big expense to totally replace a currently working system. This little recorder is a nice little machine. Sound is crisp and battery life is good. I trust the Sony name so when I saw this one I jumped at the chance to get it. Plus, it's the same model that the physician uses so at least he has a backup if his recorder of over 7 years ever quits. Highly recommend. The tapes are out there in the market but you just have to know where to look.Read full review

I was glad to find this used recorder to playback some old tapes I had. I was hoping my now deceased grandmother's voice was on one of the tapes. My microcassette no longer turned the tapes to play them back. I couldn't believe new ones like this were several hundred dollars! While I didn't find my grandmother's voice, I am happy to have a recorder to back up my digital phone recorder.

I am bidding on the 570's because I had one and used it so much, it finally died, but I am used to this model. I am also bidding on the other models by Sony because sometimes I need to use an external microphone and the 570 does not have a port for that. But I tried digital recorders, and there is no way to save the recordings when the digital folders get full, so I am back to microcassette recorders. I wish the manufacturers would keep making them. I am afraid it may be difficult to find the cassettes pretty soon.
Seems to be working okay recording and playing back and nothing is broken not brand new but few scratches so it's good to replace my old one from a few years back I got lost or stolen.
