Why it's buy-it-for-life
One long-time owner reports buying an AT-LP60 15 years ago and still using it as a reliable entry-level turntable, needing only an eventual belt replacement.
What owners say
Described as a decent intro-level, belt-driven turntable good for pairing with external or desktop speakers, with a simple start button that auto-cues 33 or 45 RPM records. One commenter has owned theirs for 15 years (bought for $65) and notes the belt will eventually need replacing but otherwise treats it as a solid beginner pick, while another calls it merely 'decent,' suggesting better options exist above its price point.

Audio-technica AT-LP60 is decent but above that price is better.
I bought one 15 years ago for $65 ... This is belt driven so you'll need to replace the belt eventually.
