Home > Consumer Reviews > Koss KS3112 Progressive-Scan DVD Player

We've had this machine two months....yesterday, it stopped showing a picture, but still plays sound. I suppose we can use it for a stereo.

Also....the remote control is pretty unresponsive. Seems to take a long time to get the message. All in all...a pretty crappy machine.

Luckily, still under warranty.

DON'T BUY IT! I bought a KOSS DVD player and it broke in 6 months. I was told I was out of luck because the warranty is only 90 days. They do not do repairs. My only option is to buy a new one and wasn't even offered a discounted price for it. I have seen several complaints like mine about KOSS on the web. They make JUNK and they make it to last just to get past the warranty period and then it breaks. Oh, by the way I loved it until it broke.

I bought this dvd player because I just got a dvd burner and I needed a dvd player that played dvd-r disks. Well this one was advertised to do that; it even says it on the box. When i pull it out of the box and plug it up, I put a dvd-r in to watch it, and it gives me a "no-disk" error. I'm sending this back and getting my money.

I bought a Koss 5 disc progressive scan home theater system for Christmas last year. I should have known when the one I brought home didn't work, that I was making a big mistake. The machine had trouble reading discs (as did the first one I purchased). It then worked for a while. Long enough to expire the warranty. It has now been exactly 10 months since I bought it and it will not even power up. Do not be seduced by a great price on a product that "looks" good. Koss is a horrible brand and I've had nothing but problems since the day I bought it. I should have just gotten my money back when I could instead of hoping it would turn out to be a great deal. I could have just mailed them a check for $150. I've got nobody to blame but myself. Consider yourself warned.

So I get this DVD player for Xmas from my parents to make up for my VCR that died recently. I had never heard of "Koss" before. I had never touched a DVD before. So my wife and I pondered the cryptic setup instructions which did not match the machine at all and finally got it set up. No remote. We found it - hidden in a small crevice in the styrofoam. How disorganized. So we just got it. So far so good. It still works. After -- one week. But it's a new year. Wish us luck! And thanks for the crummy reviews. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
