Great turntable
I have no complaints about the Pro-Ject Primary E Phono.
The package arrived promptly from Thomann. It was well packaged and easy to assemble and set up.
There are no fancy features (e.g. automatic return) but, of course, I knew this going in.
The turntable has to be on a level surface. If not, the stylus can jump past the runout groove and onto the lable of the record. I haven't noticed any skating while playing, however, even when it was slightly non-level.
It sounds good, to me at least.

Sounds good, inconvenient to use..
In general, it is a very good-sounding turntable, but it becomes really inconvenient to use.
It is a very lightweight turntable, so even opening the lid moves the whole thing. Playing records with the lid open is a must, because every time you open or close it, the needle will almost certainly jump.
Having only three legs does not help with stability either. I honestly do not understand the reason for that design choice.
The whole belt system is also messy. There is no proper groove for the belt to stay in; it just sits on the edge of the platter. Every time you remove or flip a record, you will most likely catch and pull the belt off, which means you have to reassemble the whole system again.
If I could, I would return it.

Excellent sound but...
The external belt is an absolute pain. It keeps snapping out and it broke after 5/6 plays... I've never seen such a silly system for a turntable in my life. The sound is excellent though.
