How it sucks
click term for excerpts - most relevant excerpts first10 months ago @ AmazonI guess Amazon/Warehouse Deals doesn't bother to look inside the boxes when items are returned to them, just send 'em back out to some unsuspecting customer. I was able to use my player for a while, but once the battery ran down, that was it. I had already contacted Warehouse Deals about the missing parts and they suggested that (1) I return the unit and reorder a new one (a hassle), or (2) they gave me a number to call to order the missing parts (the party that answered said they weren't the right place to call and gave me still another number) and the new outfit was to have ordered the correct parts which have not arrived.
10 months ago @ AmazonAfter printing out the 88 page (!) manual, I discovered that some other items were also missing: the button battery for the remote (those things are expensive!) and two of the cables. I have returned the DVD player for a replacement from Amazon. Hopefully I will get a NEW player with all accessories included and not someone else's returned item.
10 months ago @ AmazonIt is heavy, but again, fine for us. The remote seems useless as most often I assume one would be holding the player on one's lap, not at any distance to make a remote necessary. I would have been able to rate it higher if it had come with all of its parts.
12 months ago @ AmazonOnly disappointment, is that it is noiser than I thought it should be. Extremely noisey when loading a DVD, but not bad while playing.
10 months ago @ AmazonSo here I sit with a DVD player with a dead battery and the 30-day return period has expired.
10 months ago @ AmazonThe picture is clear but the sound is terrible. I had to buy a small external speaker to go with the product. The remote control leaves a lot to be desired too.
12 months ago @ AmazonPicture is a little dark, but I have not played with any settings. Volume control is a wheel, can not adjust with remote. Positves.
10 months ago @ AmazonThe sound is a little tinny, but improves with headphones--2 headphone jacks make it very convenient for two people to share.
11 months ago @ AmazonPreviously accessing the movies on the laptop was a chore for her but since getting the portable player she doesn't wait for me anymore - she watches them sometime during work hours.
11 months ago @ AmazonThe complaint about the battery size seems strange as we find the battery compartment to be most acceptable. If there is a complaint, it would be about the quality of audio via the speakers. This problem, however, is inherent to all portables.
