Advantages: Low cost, no problems, consistent playback Disadvantages: lack of functionality (especially without the remote!)
I bought this player from Amazon 2 years ago for £32.99 - It was a bargain, and I'm still pretty pleased with my buy. Came with remote control, instructions (which were good), and a SCART cable, which is always a bonus!
It looks fairly standard, almost nicely designed... but somehow lacking. There is a bit of a mix of colours on the front - blue panelling, green standby/on light and turquoise display, which (a) makes it seem like a mish-mash of ... ...old BBC computers from the 80s.
The low price is reflected by this, and the clunky buttons, and slightly awkward and bumbling motion of the disc-tray when in ejects.
Having said this, it plays discs extremely well. It is multi-region and has no problems with DVDs from any region. It also plays CDs, mp3s, VCDs etc. with an excellent and easy to use interface and menu selection.
The picture and sound quality are great, so no complaints there. You ...
