- Excellent Investment
Excellent product! I have used this dictionary for almost five years now. It is easy to use, informative, and has withstood being dropped countless times. It has very good learning tools to help you expand your vocabulary. The "speak" tool has helped me fix words I had mispronounced my whole life. I love it...worth the money.

- A Friend Forever
I have had The Franklin model SCD-1870 for several years now. I'm so grateful and happy with it I'm compelled to say a few words about it.
Two AAA batteries I put in several years ago and it still works! And I use the dictionary pretty much every day. As others have noted both the LCD and the speech are clear. Vocabulary capacity is more than enough. It comes with a lot more than a mere dictionary, like eBooks, but I use it primarily as a dictionary.
I nominate this product ... Read More

- Please do not waste your money.
This review pertains to Model SCD-1870A, ISBN:159074174.
Please do not waste your money on this product.My girlfriend and I bought two of these dictionaries together, through an online vendor, and both had defects.
At first my saved wordlist would delete periodically (which is frustrating when you have saved around 30 new words and are trying to expand your vocabulary).Then my dictionary simply stopped working, after around 4 months of use.My gf's still works, but her ... Read More

- Good Product but Get It for Less
This Franklin's SCD-1870 is a good and convenient product (looks great too).I especially like the fact that one can simply pop in an expansion card (dictionaries, references, games, and even bibles) to obtain additional functions--without having multiple gadgets. I purchased mine, via Amazon, from xpresstech for $90.99 + $5.49 shipping.
I also have the German (has the best features & tools of the 3), the speaking Spanish (has an annoying tiny & not expandable read screen), and the Italian ... Read More
