A good product, with an important caveat for i-tunes users4
Our baby has enjoyed this player since she received it as a gift (at about 2 months of age). She loves the music and the lights. There are some drawbacks. First, we did experience some technical difficulties and had to return the original for a replacement. So far the replacement is working nicely. Second, it is important to note that music purchased from i-tunes will not play on this windows-based product because the i-tunes files are "protected." We have successfully played the songs it came with. Among the songs that come with the MP3 unit, we very much enjoy the "playtime" songlist, but don't particularly care for most of the songs on the "soothing" playlist (because the woman's voice is too playful sounding for bedtime). However, we ripped our own CDs and put our own soothing music on the player and it works great... biggest drawback is just the i-tunes situation because we rarely purchase CDs anymore.

Great product! Only 1 design flaw.5
We bought this for our 3 year old son. He loves it. The software is super easy to use. My Son's attention span isn't as long as the amount of music this can hold. My only complaint is the voice record feature. It is one button on the mp3 player and if your child pushes it it will record automaticly. Any and all sound including interference from other electronic devices. Makes a terrible sound. You then have to plug the MP3 into your computer to erase all the files recorded via the voice record button. Also, these voice record files land under the favorites category. This is the first category that comes on whenever you turn on the unit. A possible way to avoid this is to fill up the MP3 as much as you can so there is no room for recording. However it is hard to find that exact golden number so that you have 000 MBs/KBs left. I have yet to hit that nail on the head. Aside from this one long winded complaint I would reccomend this unit even though it is a bit $$.

Does not have Mac Software2
We received this item as a gift and were excited to put our baby's favorite (or hopefully favorite to be) music on it. We liked the idea of hanging it in the crib and then as she grew she could tote it around and push the buttons herself. We could also change the music as she grew from Baby Einstein to Laurie Berkner to whatever comes after that. We opened it and played with the pre-recorded music, of which most is pretty good. We then decided to open the software and found that it didn't work on a Mac. We do not own a PC and now have no way to put any new music on the player. We had thrown away the box and didn't get a gift receipt with it anyway and so couldn't return. Just be aware if you purchase this you have to have a PC to run the software. It doesn't say this anywhere in the description of the product.
