that I have owned. Plus, I love that it folds flat for storage or for when I am traveling. I am also going to be traveling for the next 4 months. I have bought this turntable only after I got so much feedback from my friends, from my daughter, and from the amazing people from Amazon. It is the best turntable you can get in this price range.”

Polk Audio Atrium 3 Portable 5-Inch Vinyl Turntable, 3.1 Atch, 2-Speed
4.2 stars, 6,079 reviews
While not exactly a budget turntable, the Polk Audio Atrium 3 is a great value. The Atrium 3 is made of quality materials, the vinyl is sound, and the build quality is superb. You can get this turntable for less than $50 and it will give you the same sound quality for a lower price. It also has a built-in amp so you don’t have to pay for separate subwoofers. This is a great turntable and you might actually prefer it to your local record store. Plus, it is super easy to travel with.

Bang & Olufsen Beoplay LP 2-Speed Vinyl Microphone
4.6 stars, 1,719 reviews
This is the second Sony turntable on our list of the best vinyl turntables. While it is not a “classic” turntable, many reviewers mention that they use it in addition to their Sony MPKH 200. “This Beoplay is a great purchase. It has a great sound, great quality, and it is small and lightweight. My Sony MPKH was too bulky to travel with. This is perfect for me. The sound is clear. The controls are easy to use, and the sound is great. I’m currently using this with a Sony RS-HXBKW-000’ for recording at home and using it to record on the road.”
