Some rented DVDs had dead spots and after cleaning the discs and with no improvement, we planned buying a new player. Until a Google search sent us to the Memorex CD/DVD-Player Laser-Lens Cleaner at Amazon. One treatment with this inexpensive new tool and all was fixed. Obviously, the problem was dirt on the player lens, for which the player's troubleshooting guide made no mention. The cleaner would be better with a more concise (time saving) oral user guide. But, thank you Memorex (and Amazon).

My DVD Player/Recorder was having problems recording. Some blank DVDs got the message "Cannot Record To This Disc" and some would record but have skips in the recording. The playback function was still OK. After using this cleaner once, there was a little improvement... but it still wasn't right. I ended up doing the cleaning function 4 times - and now the unit works just fine.

If your problem is stubborn, as mine was, you may need to use the cleaner several times back-to-back. But it made all the difference in the operation of this unit.

NOTE: Memorex recommends you use this product only 10 times... then replace it.

Hi,

Hey, don't run to the repair shop just yet and don't kick that DVP/DVR to the curb too soon.......help is on the way!!! My DVR was giving me grief not reading or writing to discs properly until I fed it this Memorex CD/DVD Laser Lens Cleaner. WOW, it worked like magic!!! It's been nearly 3 weeks already and not a single error message and it plays and records like the day I purchased it. If you own a CDP/DVP/DVR a Memorex Laser Lens Cleaner may save you a costly trip to a repair shop......it certainly did in my case!!! Just my two cents.

I have a Sony DVD player that is a few years old. I also belong to one of those movies by mail companies. Although I would clean each DVD when it came, more often than not my DVD player wouldn't play the DVD. I could take it in on my computer and play it with little or no problem, but that's not nearly as comfortable as stretching out on the couch. I was going to either end my membership in the rental place, or purchase a new DVD player. As a last resort, I purchased this cleaner and it worked exactly like the directions said. I have had no problems with any DVD that I've rented since then. I would highly recommend this to anyone with problems.

I thought I was going to have to replace my Sony DVD player becasue I could not get through a movie without it hanging up or skipping. So, for $4.95, I figured I'd try this first. Instant improvement! - I rarely get this lucky. You can believe other positive reviews if your problem is a dirty lense, like mine was.
