A little disappointing
busymama2  from Oceanside, CA,  Apr 15, 2008
I thought I would take a chance on a "refurbished" DVD player and frankly, I wish I hadn't. It works fine, but is really noisy at times. It has a constant hum that is annoying. Also, when the unit is off, the red "standby" button is lit. That kind of bugs me. I don't like lights on when an appliance is "off". I'll keep it, simply because I don't want to go through the hassle of returning it. But I wish I had shopped around a little more. The remote control is difficult to get used to, it has buttons in odd places and there is no open/close button. Overall, it is a fair product, but I am a little disappointed in my purchase.

It Broke
grammag  from Loganville, GA,  Apr 1, 2008
I got the dvd player for christmas so i can play my favorite dvd that is only sold in german, but can be made into english. It worked for a while then one day it just went crazy and stopped working. We sent it back and they said that they'd either fix it IF THEY CAN, but if they can't they would send me my money back. I received my money back. It's not worth trying.

Great Player for the price
tyfoff  from Kaysville, UT,  Dec 29, 2007
I wanted a player that was able to play all regions, and though this comes in region 1 only, it is very easily changed with a simple code typed into the remote. It is working great as a region free player (although we have only had it for less than 1 week).

Technically speaking the DVD player works great and is easy to use, however when it came in the box, I had to clean the entire thing. It seems like it had been used before and the remote control had food stuck to it, which was disgusting. I was not aware that this was a refurbished DVD player or a used one as I do not remember it being on the description. I did not hassle with sending it back since it was just something we needed for the kids play room. It was cheap and not worth the hassle.

Phillips DVD Player
annushka  from Upstate New York,  Dec 1, 2007
Easiest DVD player I ever had. I attached it, plugged it in and off it went. It takes up very little room.

What a great pricetag, and ours is working just fine. My only complaint has been that the whole system seems to be defaulted to French and we have to change things to English via the machine's more cmoplicated menu, not the movie's menu, everytime we use it. I have no idea why it's set up that way and I know it's not standard, but apparently it happens. Luckily, Overstock is great about customer service and if I wanted I could probably just exchange it. Alas, I'm lazy. ;) On the plus side, I was feeling, yep, lazy again and watched the entirety of "Open Season" with my 2 yr old the other day in French and enjoyed it just as much. Maybe it can be his fourth language. ;)

Philips DVD Player
josht11  from Chicago, IL,  Oct 31, 2007
We are still learning how to use all of the features. I do not like the remote as the buttons are in strange places, but overall we like the product.

Robust Product at a Value Price
haloyerself  from Chino Valley, AZ,  Oct 28, 2007
This is a good product for around $50. I bought it for the many formats that it will play, especially Divx CD & DVD's. I would recommend it to anyone who wants something that performs consistently and doesn't need the top-of-the-line product that costs 6-10x as much.

Low end DVD player
reader80  from Kansas City, KS,  Sep 3, 2007
This is a second DVD player, most likely to be used when grandchildren are here, however I was looking for DivX capability so I can watch tapes I have converted to DVD. It is very slim, so it does not take up much space, and has several options for connection to a TV. It has manual on /off and manual opening of the DVD tray, which is less convenient than our current DVD player. Overall, it will meet our needs for occasional use.

We don't watch movies that much so after our 5 disc player went out we used the Playstation to play our movies for a few months. When I got tired of that sitting out all the time, I just wanted an inexpensive DVD player. I chose this one primarily based on price and the reviews posted. I have never purchased anything re-conditioned before and was a little bit hesitant so I went ahead and bought the Overstock 2 yr protection plan for only $6.99. So far, we have had no problems with it - it works perfectly.

I bought this dvd player for my mother's birthday. I was planning on getting her a new one, but this one was refurbished. It arrived quickly and in perfect condition on the outside. I plugged it in, and turned it on and popped in a dvd to see if it worked, and it played great! She had been wanting a dvd player for a long time now, but she likes buying cheap things to save her money. I like quality things, so I decided to get this one for her because I know philips is a great brand. It all worked out and she loves it, so do I!

I bought this to try to save myself some work and not have to transcribe avi files to dvd. It works great and the only knock against it that I can find is there is apparently no eject on the control that comes with it and it has to be opened and closed by pressing the button on the front of the player or maybe I just have a defective controller but everything else on it works fine.

We've been really happy with this player so far. It works great, it's slim and easy to use. There was one of my burned DVDs that it wouldn't play, but that's my only very small complaint. I'd recommend this to anyone who wants a simple DVD player for the home.

I originally ordered this product in Feb as a gift for my mother. It was refurbished and so I assumed no warranty. So when it broke after only 2 movies, I was extremely upset and regrettably wrote a less than nice letter to Overstock customer service. I was immediately contacted and informed that even their refurbished products are covered by warranty, and even before I could box up the broken one to send it back, my mother had already received a replacement. The replacement works perfectly. This kind of customer service deserves a gold star and repeat business and they certainly have mine. Oh, and the DVD player is exceptional for the price.
