I was worried about what the first reviewer wrote. But, I bought the unit anyway. I haven't had any problems with disks I have burned. The screen looks very nice. Well worth the price.

I bought this unit from my local Best Buy and ended up returning it a week later. It was a great little machine but the only flaw (which was a big one for me [never travel with originals, leave them at home]) was that every time I played a movie backed up to a DVD+R disc it would play fine until the climax of the film. Then it would start to freeze, skip, and sputter. It did this on EVERY DVD+R movie I played in it. Now I'm searching for a similar machine that actually works as it is supposed to. It's a great unit if you never need to play DVD media backed up from a computer's DVD burner.

I was hesitant on buying a brand that hasn't been out very long. I took a chance and don't regret it at all! Great DVD player. It plays burnt DVDs and regular DVDs from the stores. If the movie doesn't load right away due to the new encryption codes (so people can't copy the movies), try clicking the top menu or menu button while loading. Also make sure the DVD is clean. It only plays clean DVDs. There is no skipping. The sound and picture quality are good. If you are looking for a bigger screen and not wanting to pay alot more money, this is the DVD player for you.

I bought this unit to entertain my child on a trip. She went through a couple dozens movies in a week and it worked flawlessly. I played recorded video's and store bought movies, even a couple cd's. The picture is very nice even compared to much higher priced portables. The only thing I found that I don't like is it is very loud when it spins up a disk, but that goes away.

This is a nice little portable DVD player available at Best Buy. It has good screen resolution within its limitations. The audio sound was crisp. The accessories are useful. I recommend it highly!
