Toshiba SD-3109U DVD Player

Pros: Good player with a great remote
Cons: Only has two bays, won't play CD/DVD-RWs

I have quickly upgraded from the world of VHS to DVD, and will never return. Other than the fact that I can't record on it, this player has replaced my VCR entirely.

This was the first DVD player I bought, and is still my favorite. While it...

Pros: Nice features for the money. Decent picture and sound.
Cons: Annoying small problems. Skips on certain DVD's. Twin tray set-up doesn't change automatically.

I bought the Toshiba SD3109 from an online vendor and I have been somewhat pleased with it's performance, but also disappointed in a couple of areas. The good points with the unit include a nice, clear picture with good sound reproduction. The unit seems...

Pros: Very good audio and video quality.
Cons: Extremely unreliable

I realize this review may not provide as much useful information about the SD3109 as other reviews. My primary purpose for writing this is to share my experience of 8 months of ownership. In particularly I felt it was worth sharing due to the...

Pros: Very affordable, great picture and sound, good quality, hold two discs
Cons: doesn't play burned CD's

I bought a Toshiba DVD on an online auction and got a great price. I did a lot of research on which DVD player to buy because I have heard a lot of good and bad about some of the DVD players out there. I found that Toshiba was making a great DVD...

Pros: Inexpensive, DTS and Dolby Digital compatable, had it for 1.5 years and works great!
Cons: none

Wonderful unit. I have had it for 1.5 years and it has been flawless. I picked it up for under $300. It holds two disks which is a plus. It plays compact disks and DVD's equally as well. Plays both DTS and Dolby Digital (AC3) although I accually...

Pros: Great picture, zoom, 2-disc feature, "blackest black", Dolby Digital decoder, screensaver.
Cons: Somewhat flimsy design.

If you have the chance to buy this DVD player then do just that. I have had mine for a little over two years now and haven't had any real problems with it. The only problems I have had are a couple of times when I rented DVD's from Blockbuster that...

Pros: Many features (front and back)
Cons: Takes time to lean all features

This is my first dvd player I ever bought.Even though I seached high and low for it for the price range.
I paid $250.00 for it.It retails about $400.00 .
The experience I have from it is way better than VHS.Plus it has all connections...

Pros: clear pic and great sound
Cons: skips and freezes

My fiance and I had purchased this dvd player after months of research for a great player. We purchased it in December 1999. Watching movies on it was great for the first few weeks, then we got involved in moving and watching movies was on hold for a few...

Pros: Dual-disk, good feature set
Cons: fast forward awkward.

I bought this unit after looking around for a while to determine which DVD players were on the market and talking to a lot of people that had already purchased.

With a two-disk tray arrangement (yes, you can be loading one tray while playing a...

Pros: 2 disc, DD decoder on board
Cons: Fast Forward same button as next chapter

I bought this in February with a group-buying program online. This was my first DVD player. I was already familiar with the Toshiba line of products so I was confident in its quality. Upon arrival the first thing I noticed was that it was packaged...

Pros: Dual-disk, HDCD, component video
Cons: Known to be sensitive to disk damage

I am not going to talk much about the quality and playback of the 3109 as all that sort of thing was excellent so there's no real reason to get into it, I am focusing here on the features that the 3109 has that may actually matter to someone looking to...

Pros: Great picture, sound quality
Cons: Small remote

Having a DVD player is the hottest thing today. Our computer has a DVD player in it, but the screen is so small, and the sound is not good. However, we had a lot of DVDs to be played, so we decided it was time to buy a DVD player. We looked...

Pros: great price, easy to use
Cons: none

Last year I picked up a Toshiba dvd player for about $299.99 and I love it. The part that I like the best is the feature called the zoom feature. I know there is probably a lot of you that do not like to watch dvd movies in wide screen format well, no...

Pros: works perfectly
Cons: remote should be backlit

I bought this DVD player about a year ago (10/99). I had been watching for an affordable DVD player, but had also read that a lot of them don't perform perfectly w/ all movies. I had read the reviews and the 2109 was highly recommend on a lot of sites....

Pros: low price, all the features I need
Cons: none so far

This is my first DVD player and it has not let me down. I have yet to explore Dolby Digital, but this unit sounds great in 2 channel mode. Since my TV is several years old I use the composite video and the picture is great. Most of the movies I have...
