Customer Reviews

it's refurbished, not new3
My own 2-year-old Sansa was accidentally broken, and since I really liked the way it worked, I wanted another. Paying full-price seemed a bit high at this point, so I decided to go with a refurbished for the savings. The one I got works well, just not as good as a new one (or as good as the one I had had). There's a small problem with the volume control changing on its own, which is a continual irritant, but not life-threatening.

Great unit, great value5
I was going to buy an Ipod but saw alternatives including this unit, and decided to give it a try. The unit performs as advertised and with all its additional features is a great value. It's easy to use, loads quickly and performs impeccably.

Other reviewers have commented about the lack of an AC charger or other accessories, but I purchased an AC charger, car charger, silicon (perfectly fitting) case and arm band from among the listed accessories at Amazon for unbelievably low prices.

One issue, though, is that using Windows Media Player with Vista has a couple of glitches. Artwork (album covers) doesn't sync, although Sandisk tech support apparently has a work around. More problematic is that the music library synced to the unit won't display on Windows Media Player, and tech support told me it's a glitch with the Windows Media Player Software. I found by changing a default setting (sync all upon connecting) this can easily be overcome, and gave the fix to tech support to disseminate.

I recommend this unit highly!

The kid liked so I guess that's good4
Good value for the price. A little annoyed with the restart everytime I unplug it from my system and the transfer program can use a little work. But real nice and easy to use.
