While I have had this product a short while, I have had no problems with it. The picture and sound are very good. A little slow to start movie but otherwise a good product.

This is a basic Upconvert DVD player and one of the cheapest available. It plays well and after pushing a few buttons I was able to watch my UK DVDs. The main con is the lack of a button to open/close the disk tray. You must use the remote to put a DVD in, which can be a hassle. The remote and disk tray seem a bit flimsy so I would not recommend for use in a child's or even a teen's bedroom. For an adult who enjoys the quality of HDMI this is an good buy.
***UPDATE***
Shorty after I wrote this reveiw, I found how to open/close the door without the remote. Since I just had a "comment" regarding that issue, I wanted to take the time to update.
This DVD player is still working fine. I have a blu ray player and a Roku, so it is only used to play my region 2 DVDs. (The reason I purchased this player.)
Again, I would not recommend this for a child, teen or even an elderly person. If you are an adult on a budget who would like an HDMI DVD player or...Read more

This unit plays your DVD's and thats pretty much the only positive thing I can say about it. From the moment I took it out the box..I immediatley knew I wasted my money. The unit was so light, I was sure it was for display purposes only. However, I plugged it in and watched a movie, played pretty well no skipping or sudden freezes. The unit comes with a remote control which is light as a feather (almost the weight of a empty box of baking soda) and is very hard to use, its just better to press the buttons strait from the player. The buttons on the remote are extremely small and almost impossible to press because they are do deepley embedded into the remote. The typical layout of a remote control was not used at all. It was hard to find everything. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this product except if your looking for a DVD player that doest the BARE minimum.
