Kids Juke Box is front for deception under the cover of an innocent children's music company which is owned and run by Kurt Penberg. I have done some basic research and found out this Penberg is a convicted felon for scamming money during fund raising for a film production. He has been convicted of defrauding our great nation and should be locked up in my opinion. Avoid dealing with this person and company if you value your own business or reputation.

I have worked at Kids Juke Box for over 4 years and not once has there ever been a complaint. I manage the customer service department and find this to be rude and incorrect. Kids JUke box hold all of its customers to be dear and always day in and day out puts their customers first

The information on this site is simply wrong. Kids JUke box has over 1 millon CD's sold with no complaint ever registered against in the past and no outstanding complaints at this time and none anticipated any time in the future. These horrible remarks were added by a vicous competitor...........Plain and simple. anyone wanting more information may call me at 760 603 9901
Kids Juke Box is a company that makes beautiful personalized prodcuts for children

I am a customer of kids Juke box and have been doing business with Kids JUke box for years. They are a wonderful company to do business with and I have never had anything but the best service and customer care from this company. I have refered many of my friends to this site and they are all so happy with the product. I dont know who would have written such a horrilbe comment but my guess is it must be a competitor

Company like this provide a bright future for our children
