Advantages: Small, sturdy, does the job

Disadvantages: Button a little easy to accidentally press

Being the kind of person who finds background music essential for jazzing up mundane activities like tidying up, cleaning, and dragging myself down the gym, I need a compact but sturdy MP3 player to accompany me. I received the Zen Nano Plus as a gift and it hasn't let me down once. It's survived falling out of my pocket on the rowing machine many a time, as well as being used in the typical English downpour on long dogwalks and wears its battlewounds with pride - not that it has many, other than the odd scratch, and the battery case having gone missing a long time ago. Despite this, it battles on playing my incredibly cheesy playlist and does me proud.
It is extremely simple to use, simply plug in and drag-and-drop the MP3 files.

The included earphones weren't the best, but I've made myself through several pairs anyway - better quality headphones provide better quality sound. It displays the artist and song name clearly, and has a variety of modes to sort/play your music by. It also comes with a fairly easy to tune radio, when you're fed up of your playlist.

One downside to this MP3 player would be the ease at which you can accidentally skip forward or back a track. This isn't an issue the majority of the time but if you're a jogger than the movement in a pocket can accidentally push the button and skip your track, interupting your (hopefully) internal singing mid-note.

Other than this I would definately rate this little player well. It fits a nice selection of songs that more than fill my gym workout with a selection of songs in shuffle mode, keeping my spirits high while pounding the treadmill, and to have survived so long in my careless hands speaks for its sturdiness.

Summary: An easy to use MP3 player that does what it says on the tin
