### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Durability
*by T***D on July 25, 2012*

I'm going to give this tiny microphone good points for durability. I got it to use with a mini-recorder. I keep the mic plugged in, with the cord wrapped around the recorder, in my purse. I fully expected the foam windscreen covering on the mic would be lost or torn almost at once, but it is staying on very well, and in good shape, despite the somewhat rough treatment. Likewise the clip and wiring is very good though it's taking some battering being unprotected in my purse.Very decent omni sound quality. Using it in my vehicle, it's picking up the truck noise, but my voice--with the mic clipped at chest level--is perfectly clear. It's very much a step up from using the digital memo recorder's internal mic.The cord is more than long enough for me to put my recorder in my truck's cupholder and clip the mic at chest/neck level. As someone else mentioned--and it's this way with my recorder, too, so probably a mic-specific issue, rather than recorder-specific--recorder needs to be in mono or you'll only get one channel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect mic for portable recording
*by A***D on April 15, 2011*

This little microphone does a good job of being inconspicuous while delivering a clear voice recording. When I received it, the mic clip was on "backwards," with the wire on the outside, in front of the clip, which makes the wire more obvious to the audience. So I carefully pried the clip off of the wire (be careful, the wire channel is so tight you could damage the wire), flipped it over, and reattached it to the mic wire. Now it's even more unobtrusive.I have another mic that uses batteries, but checking the batteries before each recording session is a pain, so this unpowered mic is a fantastic convenience! The cable length is perfect for slipping the recorder into your pants' pocket. If you have a stereo recorder, just remember to set it to Mono. If you leave the recorder on Stereo, you will only get sound on one side (the Left channel).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy to clip on, and it stays on
*by K***S on November 10, 2017*

This mic easily clips on and stays put. The cord is also long enough to tuck the device into a pocket while it’s clipped on. While the accuracy isn’t as great as my stationary mic, it was a lot better than I expected - then again, I use it to dictate while driving. I do not regret this purchase and will buy another one if this one breaks.
