Excellent direct drive turntable for its category. I have been the owner of it for the past year and a half and I declare myself completely satisfied with what it offers me for the 380 euros I spent. Solid construction with a cast aluminum platter (weighs 11 whole kilograms), sleek MK2 design with 3 speed options (33, 45, and 78 rpm) and completely silent during playback even if you sit right next to it like I do. I use it for home use, so I don't have an opinion on its durability in a professional setting. However, comparing it to the Technics SL-BD 20 that I had, the sound is clearly louder and with fuller bass. The only drawbacks in my eyes are that the needle falls quite clumsily on the record, so I prefer to manually guide it at the beginning, and that the connection cable to the amplifier is built-in and does not require an upgrade if someone wanted something better. Also, as a DJ turntable, it is not automatic, but personally, that doesn't bother me at all. I would buy it again with my eyes closed.

I improved the sound quality with a new cartridge and needle, which I admit turned out excellent!! The S-shaped tonearm lifts abruptly and also drops abruptly onto the record because obviously it doesn't have good damping on the descent! Overall, it has a good appearance and seems to withstand rough handling, it is purely professional with no automation.
