First of all I would like to state that the picture above is quite misleading as the Dansai 701DVD/MP3/CDR player is much slimmer and stylish than the picture shown on the site here. I believe the picture shown is the first ever 701 model from Dansai and doesn't reflect subsequent upgrades over the years.
I have owned 3 DVD players in the last 10 years and all have been made by Dansai, and all have been the 701 models so I feel qualified to give my opinion on what I consider to be the best value for money DVD player on the market. My first purchase in 1998 was £40 at a time when most DVD players retailed in excess of £100 and since I have paid £35 and then £30 for the most recent. Each purchase has lasted and lasted playing DVDs without fault. The earliest model was passed onto a friend, the second onto my nephew and now the cheapest model serves me well.
Set up is easy as the player comes wih a SCART cable so it is just a matter of plugging in and playing. The remote looks pretty cheap and tacky but it has everything you would need to control the player at your fingertip. The ability to play, pause, skip chapters, zoom and alter the volume.
The player may not be the best looking machine on the market but the picture quality and sound playback from both DVDs and MP3 are fantastic and on a par with playback from far more expensive makes and models. You would be silly to fork out more than £30 for a DVD player when this is available and so I would recommend it.
