Major brands have re-adopted vinyl records as a viable medium once again due to the increase in consumers who are purchasing them, so products like the [Crosley](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crosley-c65) Cruiser Portable Turntable are coming about to satisfy a retro demand. Coming in a variety of color options, the Crosley Cruiser Portable Turntable is an [all-in-one system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/victrola-soundstage) that is packed with not only a three-speed turntable, but also stereo speakers.

Due to the [retro aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brad-retro-mkii-turntable) that vinyl records call to mind, the Crosley Cruiser Portable Turntable is designed to have a vintage aesthetic regardless of the modern technology it houses within. While indeed portable, the turntable can also be utilized as a stationary system thanks to the incorporation of a belt-driven system.
