Pros
Pro Rubber pad
The rubber pad prevents hiccups and skips that are more common on turntables below $100.
Pro Auxiliary port
Play your MP3 player through the speakers, add external speakers, or listen with headphones.
Pro Belt driven 3-Speed under $100
Belt drives require finely tuned motors to operate at the correct speed, and finding them on machines under $100 is rare. The Crosley Cruiser is that rare machine, and it does a great job.
Pro Highly portable
The Crosley Cruiser folds up into a briefcase, has built in speakers, and can run on battery power.
