How it sucks

I bought this DVD player and it didn't work. I tried to contact the seller but they couldn't replace or refund money. I was very disapointed.

I also tried calling them at their listed number. No one ever picked up their phone and the voicemail I got routed to was always full and would not let me leave a message. After three weeks of trying to contact them, I used the A-Z gaurantee from Amazon to get a refund.

It is less than 2 weeks old and has been used maybe 6 times and has stopped working. Every time I put in a dvd it sends back the message 'no disc'. I see from the reviews I am not the only person this has happened to.

The DVD player was defective. Called their customer service and they offered to replace it. After shipping the item to them it was impossible to get in contact with them.

In November I was playing a DVD and the unit stopped playing mid-movie. I eventually got the unit to respond to the 'eject' button - and the tray opened out without the DVD. I took the unit apart to retrieve the DVD, and of course haven't played it since.

I bought this DVD player for 10 months and now it's dead!!! The warranty cover labor and CRT for only 6 months and the parts for 12 months.

Second, the stand by red light can be annoying. Overall, it plays "ALMOST" every kind of video and disc format there is, doesn't skip, has lasted 2 years for me. So, in my opinion it was a good purchase.

Did not not like the units operating system. Did not like red light always on..

While it WAS working, all the functions seemed fine. However a big big negative is that there is no eject button on the remote.
