Misleading Ad.
I have been using Sony TCM-200DV Standard Cassette Voice Recorder for more than 4 years, and it has given me excellent service ever since. I was therefore pleased to order the TCM-210DV model for a gift, thinking it would be an improvement over the one I had.
However, I must admit that I was greatly disappointed when I found that the supposedly upgraded model was exactly the same TCM-200DV with an AC adaptor. At first, I thought I was sent the wrong model by mistake so I returned it for a replacement. I later found that it was intentional.
Sony is reputed for good products, so I advise the company to keep it that way. It would have been better if the cassette recorder had been advertised as model TCM-200DV plus AC adaptor instead of presenting it as a new model TCM-210DV.
I rated the product with 4 stars only, not because of poor performance, but because TCM-200DV is stamped on a product that was advertized as TCM-210DV.

Excellent cassette recorder with unbeatable features
This unit is far better than the superficially similar RCA model 3-5366A. This Sony has much more solid construction, plus its ability to record at half-speed doubles the available recording time. It's a top buy, even though it's hard to find.

The Sony TCM-210DV Is Not Usable
I researched many tape recorders before purchasing the Sony TCM-210DV. I needed it to take meeting minutes. I tried it out at two different locations and the hissing tape noise is so loud it overpowers the voices. Loud voices close by can be heard, but the noise is nerve-racking on playback. I tried two brands of tapes, thinking the one that came with the recorder might have been defective, but they had the same background hissing noise sound. Also, I thought I could use the cue for marking places while taping. Hmmmmm. I have a very old ordinary recorder that allows that function. Now, I don't know what to do. I have to take these minutes and am afraid to throw away more money on another bad recorder. I would like to get a refund, but don't know if it is possible.

Easy to use cassette recorder
In an age where cassette recording has become obsolete, this one works very well for documenting and archiving interviews and conversations. I am archiving conversation and "memories" from my 96 year old dad and find that its size and ease of use work very well for me.

PERFECT CASSETTE
For a sturdy full sized cassette recorder, look no further. This is a dependable and easy one to operate. I especially like the Double Record Time during seminars which allows your 90 minute tape to become like a 180 minute one and provide non-stop, all day recording without stopping during a speech to flip the tape over - possibly missing something important. I used it at a recent convention and it passed with flying colors.
