ya get what you pay for

I've seen this name around before, so I fig'd couldn't be that bad. Have 2 other non-brand-name units at work (diff "brands") that work flawlessly for over a year each... go figure. I would suggest find another. You can get a decent little DVD player...

Small, sleek, good color combos of silver, brushed aluminum & "chrome". Great picture quality

Works sporadically. Brand-new DVD's make no difference. Has much trouble finding title/menu or episodes if you get that far. Boot, boot, boot & reboot with a few "tray cycles" as I call them. Will lock up and not take any remote inputs, responding...

Great little DVD player

bought this for my fiance as she moved to a new apt. and it's a perfect fit for her. Great picture, small enough to slide next to the DVD cases and great price. As always fast shipping!

Outstanding value

Sure we've all seen the sub-$xx DVD players out there, but this thing is VERY compact. I've run no less than a hundred DVDs through it now without an issue. It's perfect if you need to have a small, mobile, player for DVD-based training or something...
