This review is about the Pacific DVD 1002 MK2 Player specifically.
This DVD player is a definite recommendation to anyone looking for a DVD player. Ok, so it might not be highly sophisticated with DVD recording or surround sound or anything, but it is simple, easy to use and is cheap as chips.
I got this DVD player as another birthday present from my boyfriend (yes he is very good to me and I never tend to buy electrical stuff for myself ? you should see my flat ? full of electrical presents and hand-me-downs when my friends upgrade).
He purchased this from Asda, it?s local and cheap! It only cost £34.95, which wasn?t the cheapest one there but looked the best. Also, it had to have my TV sitting on top of it, so it needed to be sturdy enough to hold that.

Advantages: Compact. Easy to set up. Cheap. Disadvantages: None.

The picture playback is much better than ...
Advantages: Cheap, excellent customer service Disadvantages: None
I was recently introduced to scan by a friend at work, and am very impressed by the sheer range of products and the customer service that I have received to boot.
I have only ever ordered things from Scan's TODAY ONLY page. Which is a page which has about a dozen or so products at absolutly silly prices. The products that are on offer are always varied and at ridiculously low prices. i recently ordered over 3500 CDRs from them.
