I personally don't like this stereo. I got one for Christmas a year or so ago, because it had a USB port, so a person could use, what was at the time the iPod shuffle, when it was still a stick.

The USB thing didn't work for either on mine. And I gave up.

I used the CD player, and the second time I used that, it would not load a disc unless I turned the entire system on and off, sometimes that doesn't even work the first time.

The iPod dock is the only pleasent part of this and even then it is hard to get to the controls if you wnat to change your playlist.
