Better than other reviews will have you think
I know that his prouct has been slammed by others, but I find that it really works well for me (saved my The Man in the Iron Mask dvd). I put a very sparing amount of the solution on the disk, turn the knob for about 20 seconds and always use the mini wiper (in an outward circular motion) to clean all the disks and I have never had a problem. I even got a couple of pretty well worn disks from Netflix that other cleaners prior would have left still unable to be viewed all the way thorugh and t hey have played well and clear after using Optifix. I suggest that if you are looking for a cleaner, you give it a try, you might be pleasantly surprised by the results.
Horrible piece of junk - ZERO STARS!!!
I have a scratched game that I tried to save. After 30 minutes of pure hell trying to use this piece of crap, I have given up on it.
The "handle" that you use to spin is .25" inches tall, meaning you can only grip it with your fingertips- it is excruciatingly painful to attempt to use. The handle pops below the spinning mechanism everytime I try to spin it, rendering it unusable. To add insult to injury, I can also see the DVD spinning around in the machine while I am trying to use it- only a small portion of it is being touched!
I have never written a bad review before. My experience with this was so horrible, I feel it is my duty to steer humanity away from it. This has forever ruined the Memorex brand for me. If they allowed this piece of junk out the door, I cannot trust them on anything else.

Works after multiple applications
When I first tried this on a DVD that was skipping a lot nothing noticeable happened. Second time, the DVD still skipped a lot. After the seventh time, the disk was skipping a lot less. Some scratches might have been too deep. So it will work, but it may take several applications for good results.
Works as advertised!
Had a Wii disk that kept locking up with an error message. Went through 2 application cycles, and the game loaded properly! Saved me from having to buy another copy of the Wii game.

!!!!!!!WARNING: DO NOT BY THIS PRODUCT!!!!!!!
This is the worst disc fixer ever made. Honistly. Don't buy this. And this is why.
It all started when I whent to ofice depo. I found his on a rack for about 10$. some of my games were scrached up badly, and I needed one badly. When I got home I put "Alien Hominid" in it and followd the instructons exactly. After 15 secionds of turning it my thum hurt badly and had an ugly calis on it. Anyway, when I opened it it had even more scraches on it, and had weird little circles on it ands for evry scratch it removed 5 more apeared. about ever thing on this is an negitive. b-u-t ... it has some things going for it.
