Works fine but sensitive to dirty/scratched discs
By A Customer
I bought this DVD player as my second one to use in my bedroom. Overall, I'm quite happy with its quality in both audio and video. It's not a high-end model but I believe it would serve your need well if you just want to switch from VHS to digital to get a much better audio/video signals. This player has also the capability of playing CDR and CDRWs that can't be found in other similar players. It's surely a plus. Only one drawback I found with this DVD player is that it seems too sensitive to dirty/scratched discs. If you intend to watch DVDs from rental places like NetFlix.com watch out for those old and scratched discs due to heavy usage.
I'd like to mention that it's hard to detect the differences in quality between this DVD player and others in the same price range if you don't have high-end stereo/video systems hooked up with it. In conclusion, except you do have expensive high-end audio/video systems, this DVD is a good buy.

This was the first DVD player I bought....and I have no complaints. I was immediately blown away by the video and sound quality improvements over the VCR.
The only problem I had was related to the fact that my television did not have the neccesary line inputs to hook this bad boy up. I had to spend an extra $30 after the fact to get it to play certain videos without the copyright protection of my vcr distorting the visual.
I would VERY much recommend this item. For the price and DVD quality over a VCR, you can't beat it.
