by wlswarts Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Mar 18 '09
Pros: Compact, Great basic functioning, Memory function.
Cons: No display, Serious delay on layered/branching DVDs, Might not fit some colorschemes
Well, it finally happened. After a couple of years, my twitchy Memorex DVD player (reviewed at: http://www.epinions.com/conten t_300982177412 ) has died. As I prepare to go into the market for a new DVD player ...

Great Portable DVD Player

by nightwolf001 , Feb 10 '05
Pros: Versatile! plays VCDs, DVD R/RW, CD-Rs with no problems.
Cons: No component video output. No front panel digital display.
Bought this DVD player back in 2001, refurbished at a Sony Outlet store in Castle Rock, Colorado. I was looking for a portable DVD player that I could bring to work for the long graveyard shift hours. I was hesitant at first because it was refurbished. ...

Small Footprint, BIG Movies

by cnelzie , Nov 05 '02
Pros: Small compact design and portability
Cons: Lack of display on the unit
Granted the purchase of this DVD-player is the first stand-alone DVD-player that I have owned. Overall, I am quite satisfied with the features and compact design that this unit provides to me.

For one thing, I really dislike clutter...

i'm a fan

by dennisge , Dec 05 '02
Pros: compact, reliable, great remote control, multi-format playback
Cons: at first I scared it would break - not anymore (@ 30 mos)
This is a great DVD player ... my first DVD player in fact. It's incredibly simple and yet it provides reliable playback of DVD movies AS WELL AS audio and mp3 compact disks using a capable player interface that features directory browsing and trackname ...

Waste of money

by pruthvi , Jul 13 '02
Pros: Compact Design, Multi-read compatibility.
Cons: Utter lack of even basic features, Not worth the price
I bought this mainly because of its compact design and it's by Sony. What a mistake!

I first bought a Daewoo for almost half the price of this Sony, and it had twice as many features as this one. I had to return the Daewoo because it had an...

Sony is Hip

by thunt , Jul 21 '02
Pros: Amazingly innovative design, Great remote control signal, mp3/cdr/rw support
Cons: Disc memory is a sham. slight pause in some layer changes. Boring Faceplates included
This DVD player is Cute as a button. Sony has proven to me that it can think a little better than the rectangular box sitting on top of the television.
This DVD player offers the basic output options of digital audio, composite out, RCA audio, and...

Portable and inexpensive

by johnny42544 , Feb 09 '03
Pros: Small footprint, reads mult formats
Cons: Outweighed by small footprint
I was looking for a small DVD player, but did not need or want one with the screen. I saw some reviews on a Koss model, but there were problems with overheating, and did not want to go there. Space is a major consideration for us, as well as...

Happy to have it

by haricat , Oct 22 '02
Pros: Size, price, design, simplicity, functionality
Cons: Lack of more advanced features, funny shaped remote control
This is a great little DVD player, especially for the price ($200 Canadian - what's that, about $120 US?). The last thing I wanted was another boring grey or black box in my living room, and frankly I didn't really have the space for a big boxy thing -...

Works good. Does the job

by tdknox , Jan 04 '03
Pros: Portable. Easy to move from room to room or car. Easy hook-up access
Cons: Could be smaller. Not for a stereo rack setup. Has to sit on top.
I was lucky enough to find a new one on sale for $69. Maybe it was priced wrong but I didn't think twice about it. They were going quick. I probably would have paid up to $90 for it, but not more. It does the job, works good and is very easy to hook-up....

It's the most cute DVD Player I've ever got

by red2001 , Dec 20 '02
Pros: MP3-Browser, replay dialogue, OSD magnificent, S-Video, good reception from remote control.
Cons: No picture zoom, search function, cover sensible and no display on device.
It's the cutest DVD Player I've ever got. At first I was skeptic about the quality of the video and sound but to my surprise this gizmo plays magnificent video and sound. Four simple buttons on the player and not complicated remote control. The best...

by seamonkey420 , Mar 10 '03
Pros: small and compact, s-video and digital sound out
Cons: no car power adapter
I travel back and forth between my house and my parent's place alot. However, my parents lacked a dvd player and i didn't want to buy a portable dvd player (too much) or a normal dvd player (too big).

So i decided to get one of these babies....

by labudaj_dt3000 ,Jan 31 '03
Web site and manual said only music VCD will be playable on this unit, yet, I was able to play VCD on it. So easy to operate. Best little portable DVD on the market. For some reason, the cable connection must be pushed fully on TV and DVD unit in order to work. All-in-all, it is a great unit for your money.

by andreahunto_dt3000 ,Feb 19 '03
I love being able to take it anywhere. Its really great if you don't have alot of room to put something. The only thing is keep out of childrens reach, because the top is so easy to open. So far it has played everything I have tried, and the picture and sound are great!!!
