bargain

I bought this DVD player 5 months ago. Originally I was very pleased with the product. I liked the slim, sleek design and the quality of DVD Playback was great. However, just recently and without warning, I am unable to play DVDs. I can play CDs without a problem, but when I put a DVD (I tried every DVD I own) into the player, it attempts to spin the DVD, and then an error message stating "Cannot Play Disc" scrolls across the Display of the DVD Player. For years I thought that SONY had quality products. It seems that something has changed. I will never buy another SONY. By the way, it would cost roughly half the original purchase price to ship it back to SONY for a replacement. What a waste.

The good thing about this player is good sound quality,good clean picture but the bad thing is about every 4 hours the picture fades from light to dark for about 5 min.In order to fix this problem,just turn your tv and your player off for about 30 sec.Then u could get back to your movie,cd,etc.Sony is normaly a high-quality brand except for this player.i hope this review helps!

I purchased this player because I experienced a DVD skipping problem with my three year old PS2. It worked flawlessly for two weeks and then my DVDs began to stall and skip again. My discs are clean and have no scratches on them. I have no choice but to return this item.

I am still very happy with my Sony TV and VCR, but I will never buy another one of their DVD players again.
