I actually have a TEAC that I got for Christmas last year, and it is much better than that piece of crap even though it doesn't have auto-return or the 78 speed. I don't even understand why they even bothered with the last bit because you need an entirely different kind of stylus and a heavier tracking force to play 78s. Not that anyone really listens to those nowadays, but still.

It's a chuo denshi magnetic cartridge. The same manufacturer of the similar looking ceramic cartridge. I haven't seen a new turntable with one of them in a while. Numark had one included. They were commonly mounted in slimline headshells without the 2 screw mounting bracket in systems from Sharp and Philips in the early 90's. That cartridge completed with 2 screw standard half inch mounting bracket is the cheapest magnetic cartridge on eBay for around $16 including postage. I bought one to try it again to see if it sounds the same as I always remember them sounding, very bright and sibilant. Bass is there but a bit boomy. Not very tight, deep or smooth.

If it lasts that long without something breaking. I've worked on a lot of 40 year old plastic turntables from the big brands of the day like Marantz, Pioneer etc. They have more than their fair share of problems from arms lifters not lowering properly or broken off, Platter bearings siezed up. A brand new turntable shouldn't have those problems. 50 year old BSR's were built like tanks considering the amount of plastic parts in them.

For $20 more it makes sense to even consider buying this over the entry level AudioTechnica AT-LP60X. Sure you don’t get pitch control, adjustable antiskate, bluetooth and counterweight control, but at least it will work properly.

I have an AudioTechnica AT-LP60X deck and I am very pleased with it. Solid design, self plays and returns.

I too got one for $19.99 at WalMart. I happen to like it. I only had a turntable with a ceramic cartridge (you know which ones). But I also don't have $$ to even spend on the Audio Technica AT LP60. It takes some setting up, but it sounds way better than my cheapy. I listen to mostly thrift shop records on a vintage Panasonic receiver. It's also nice because I can plop it on the kitchen table and my family can boogie with some Herb Alpert records. The music it plays sounds better than my CD's. I think for the $20 it's a good buy. When it was $79, I was going to get the AT LP60, but I couldn't get that much $$ together. Mine must of been a good build, because mine didn't have the lowering problem that was shown in the video. Enjoy!

I would see using a force scale gauge just to see if it's even properly weighting it correctly. If that tonearm is not giving you proper reading

Great, informational video as always, love your channel! I never once would've thought Walmart would follow Target's lead with their own turntable. Target's seems to be miiiiles better though. Also, I have an old used Gemini turntable in my room with a tonearm that occasionally won't touch the surface of the record. In my case I've found that it's not a problem with the tracking, but with the lever; I put a little more force down on the lever and it stops the skipping. I don't come across issues at all when I manually place the tonearm on the record, however.

Its like cars have 4wheels Engine and body .But Quality left much to be desired

I put up a good review a while ago and had to delete it because I discovered the fatal flaw in this turn table. I was having the same issue with the tone arm you had. The wire for the cartridge comes out of the back of the tone arm in such a way that is doesn't allow the tone arm to float which makes it impossible to set the counter weight. There is a sheath around the 4 cartridge wires that makes it rigid which causes it to pull the back of the tone arm down.

I discovered the reason for and solution to many of the problems that you had. I just got one of these for $60 on the Walmart website to see if you just got a bad example. Mine seemed Okay until I lost a nut trying to change out then cartridge for an AT3600L. In looking for the nut, I removed the platter, JUST LIKE YOU DID. After that, I could not balance the tone arm or get it to drop fully on the record. I hope that sounds familiar. I was getting ready to send it back, and then remembered that my automatic turntable from the late seventies would not left me drop the tonearm if the power had gone out while it was in the "end of record" mode. Of course, you weren't at the end of the record, but I bet you that you did not put the platter back in exactly the same position as it was in when you removed it (I didn't). So, the gearing on the platter was telling the auto-return that the tonearm should be up and in the process of moving back to the resting position. In my case, I just rotated the platter by hand until the gears in the auto-return mechanism caught up with the tone arm actually at rest on its stand. I also had to fix the belt position on the motor spindle since I placed it incorrectly the first time, resulting in Ray Eberle sounding like Alvin the Chipmunk. After rotating the platter to reset the auto-return, I was able to balance the tonearm. I checked the result with a scale. You were certainly correct that the included instructions are lousy on this score. It is true that I only got things to work because of my past experiences with cheap automatic turntables. I can understand newcomers or people who are used to better quality (such as.you) becoming frustrated, as I too was for a while. However, now the Onn turntable works great for me and I am even thinking of getting a second one. If anyone out there has one of these, I hope these experiences helps them salvage some use from the turntable.

Sorry, but the build quality of this unit absolutely makes me cringe. There is plastic, and then there is plastic. Watching the tonearm bounce up and down opening and closing the lid was painful.

The for a gear mechanism under the platter is for auto return and/or auto cueing. There's no need for any mechanism under the platter otherwise. No 'start' or 'stop' controls evident, so it's strictly auto-return/auto shutoff.

The dislikes are from WalMart employees

It seems a very nice turntable for the price. Nice features for the average vinyl collector with a tight budget. It will not be like a USD35.000 turntable but I'm sure the sound will be very similar. Human ears have a limit that no money can buy increasing.

I found a copy of the owner's manual, and it's no wonder you had trouble adjusting the counterweight, because it tells you to set it to 0.4, which it incorrectly claims is equal to 4 grams. And even if that was correct, 4 grams is too heavy for the MG-09D cartridge, anyway -- its recommended tracking force is 3.0 grams.

I'm I correct in my thinking?

It looks like this is still available. On the Walmart Website the Cartridge, looks a little different, possibly a basic Audio Technica mag unit. Just curious if anyone has purchased one recently, and whether the earlier issues have been addressed. From, your previous experience, I would remark that the Heyday from Target, represents a better bet.

I tried the ONN CD boombox and thought it sounded great but I already have a great Sony one so gave it to my niece and she still uses it daily I was shocked how great it sounded I want to try the ONN Bluetooth speakers next.

Just wanted to give an update. I replaced the original cartridge with a Chinese made Audio Technica AT3600. It sounds great!! Using a digital scale was able to set up just right. Use a protractor to adjust the angles, and wonders will flow from your receiver! My family is listening to it right now. We were listen to Karajan's Beethoven, and now we have a Taste of Honey. A really good turntable for those who can't afford an expensive one. Too bad it's to late to get anymore, for $20 it was a good investment. With the Audio Technica it sounds like vinyl should. (it's like putting a 350 small block into a Ford Pinto!) Better than CD's!!

So much money for it... Shame on you Walmart! P.S. By the way thanks for review!

The Crosley C6 I have from Walmart had that same issue with the cue. There is a screw on it to lower the cue down.

I bought what is essentially the upgraded version of this Walmart ONN turntable in the ILIVE ITTB2022 which has a very similar design. The ILIVE version has tensioning screws which allows tightening or loosening to give the arm the correct drop level and allows it to return to the base. I hope this info helps someone who purchases one of these ONN units or the ILIVE version. Best!

I bought it on black friday and just bought an audio technica cartridge for it, if only i had enough for a half decent new tone arm it wouldnt COMPLETELY suck

It’s not a tracking force issue, per se. Rather, the damping of the tone arm lifter is not allowing the lifter to smoothly fall and leave the necessary gap for the tone arm to freely operate so the stylus rests on the record.

@keswarnathragbar8225

Resistance and tracking force together .The quality of the turntable have much to be desired .To much plastic .

I just wanted to add some observations as I picked one of these up since they are now on clearance - just to see how bad it was going to be (it's an attractive unit!, just not well made). First, the cartridge supplied with mine (same as model in this review) was pushed back in the headshell all the way, and that is where they fixed it during assembly (same as this one from what I can see in the video). Problem is, that location does not conform to any known alignment I had protractors for, Baerwald, Loefgren, Stevenson & the one used on Technics SL-1200's. Second the needle (defective from manufacture) was cocked about 2-5 degrees sideways, not perpendicular to the platter (I replaced the cartridge with a Stanton 750 purchased from a liquidation supplier for 15 bucks, given the sloppy tone arm suspension on this unit, a spherical stylus is all you should likely use to avoid record damage). One will need a strobe scope to adjust the speed right, and a stylus pressure gauge to set the counter weight properly... and attempt a cartridge alignment with a protractor (assuming the supplied cartridge is not defective like mine). The cartridge mounting hardware are tiny thin screws and are very flimsy. Any anti-skate setting beyond 0 resulted in much too much anti-skate force (but 0 works fine). After about 2 hours of screwing around with it out of the box, I do have it playing properly. Better than a suitcase player, but not by much.

Oh wow they don't even align the cartridge correctly. Those particular cartridges are a bit tricky to align with non parallel sides. They should make some effort. I guess they figure it's a consumer product just get it out of the factory as quick as possible and sold to make profit.

Compared to the Connected Essentials CET500 turntable which you can get for $59.99 on Amazon, this would not be a good buy even if it was fully working. I knew this one wasn't going to be good when most of the photos on Wal-Mart's site show it with an AT3600L cartridge (instead of the MG09 cartridge it actually comes with) with no stylus and no wires connecting it to the tonearm!

First, you have to establish a "ZERO" balance for the tonearm just like on every other one, where the arm just floats level. Then turn the counterweight, starting at zero, to desired weight. A small digital scale costs only about $20. Tracking weight is important. The cart looks like an Audio-Technica AT 95 variant, They track at 2 grams and are plenty good for this table. If you put the circlip back on the spindle it should push the platter down and seat it so the platter rides level. Having an adjustable counterweight is a benefit, some other ones in this class just use a coil spring with no real adjustment. What is the noise level when playing a silent groove? That will be your background noise level from the turntable.

Not that I'd be inclined to put anything particularly high-end on a unit like this. An inexpensive AT3600 or clone might be a viable 'upgrade' path.

That is disappointing - had my hopes up for this one. Still on the hunt for my perfect budget unit. Metal platter, removable headshell, S arm, with at least auto stop if not auto return. Can find three out of four easily, but not the whole package.

Jeremy Hobbs in my opinion bro, the best budget turntable is going to be a used vintage turntable. Although, the new audiotechnica LP-60 or the newer LP-60x is pretty decent for about $80 to $100. If it’s your first turntable, I’d really recommend saving up a little more ( if possible, of course, get whatever you can afford and enjoy ) and getting the LP-120x with the fixed anti skate problems it’s actually a pretty good turntable for about $250, which I would still consider to be a budget deck for the relative quality you get with it and you won’t “grow out” of it as fast once you get more into the hobby

For $80 my expectations were zero. I'll say that it is better than I expected, but that still isn't a ringing endorsement. Still eyin the Heyday.

Can't find them

Nice review. Good looking TT but it's a POS. I'll be sticking with my 1976 Pioneer.

There's probably too much grease on the arm lift mechanism and it's gone a bit hard or gummed up.

Now we know the price point where a TT does not do what it’s supposed to do.

Pretty High end XD

It looks like even the turntable is not spinning flat. The turntable itself is warped.

Isn't it a bit late of wallmart to get on the vinyl bandwagon now? Btw, if the tonearm lift has a screw in it, turn it clockwise; it'll lower the down position.
