Summary: 5 Stars
This dvd player is great!!! Works very well and the image is very nice!! It takes a while to answer when you open and close the tray but it is a minor inconvenience. It is a very good sytem for a really good price!!Digital camera Review: Goes bad
Summary: 1 Stars
This is just to add my experience to those of others who have bought this unit and had it stop working. I bought mine about 18 months ago, so I've had a lot of fun with it, and it has performed great. Last night I put in a normal commercial release DVD. The player attempted to load for much longer than normal, then said "error" on the display, and the TV screen said "bad disc". I tried several different DVD's that were working fine previously, same results for all, so it's the player. The owners manual says not to use any cleaning discs, but I've ordered a Philips DVD lens cleaning disc to try. The Philips USA support website is less than helpful. It's irritating, and reads as though nobody ever had this problem before, such that the only solutions offered are "clean your disc" or "you are attempting to play a wrong region disc", so forth.Digital camera Review: Good DVD Player...Surprisingly Small
Summary: 4 Stars
The DVD player was even smaller than I thought it would be. I am using it in my home gym to play my workout videos. It doesn't skip. It comes with a remote, the cables, etc. You're ready to go right out of the box. I would not recommend this DVD player if it is going to be the most used one in the house. It does not have many menu buttons (just the basic), so flipping around a movie may be tedious. For my purposes, it was perfect!Digital camera Review: Good DVD player for the money
