ACCESSORIES AND ARE FULLY GUARANTEED FOR 1 YEAR.The Toshiba SD-370E DVD Player is a marvel for the money.

What HiFi gave this player 5 star rating commenting that it believed Toshiba had shot itself in the foot by producing such a good player at such a cheap price, even comparing it £200 players. On this basis alone, I bought one. Firstly, it is exceptionally slimline, Victoria Beckham would love it. But that aside, do not be put off by the price tag, The finish of this player is good. If you have small children then perhaps the DVD tray is somewhat thin and frail and will not take kindly to heavy handed children or adults, for that matter. This aside, however, the optical result are exceptional. I have to keep smiling when I realise how little this player costs. The ability to scale up DVD's to 1080i works very well with the colours becoming richer and the definition becoming much more pinsharp - all in a player that costs so little. I understand why WhatHiFi raved about this player and still astonished as to how little it costs compared to the quality. You will not be disappointed!
Came across this when buying a wedding present for a friend recently. I decided to try it out because it looked like a sleek little beast and in the end i kept it and brought something else for the wedding!
It was the look of the dvd player more than anything which attracted me, helped by the reasonable price at £49. Plus it was compatible with VCD so i could watch my large collection of martial arts films. With its ability to read rewritable dvd's ... ...The controls are easy to navigate and instructions to setting up are simple to follow. Sound is good with Dolby surroind sound ensuring a good background effect and the player itself operates silently and is a pleasure to look at. Its also compatible with MP3 so i have actually listened to a few tunes on this player and the sound with bass on is better than on my MP3 player. All in all its a good allround dvd player at around the £50 mark and one ...

Advantages: Apart from the frequent freezes in playback, a good DVD player Disadvantages: Infuriatingly frequent freeze-ups while playing disks.
Disappointing: this player had promise but a maddening fault.
We ordered this player to partner a flatscreen TV, intending to use the upscaling feature to take full advantage of the panel's resolution. The first impression was very good: excellent picture, good sound, and all seemed well. It's a nice looking player (only flaw is a rather flimsy disk tray) that's easy to set up and get working.
Unfortunately, on a variety of disks, the player demonstrated ... ...would freeze for anything from a moment to five seconds or so, like a really bad layer change. Not a problem with the disks (several tried, all OK in other players) but the player itself.
Okay, so there's a problem with that particular player, so we return it. The replacement has the same fault but does it more frequently. And it's surprising how annoying those short freeze-ups can be.
Maybe I was very unlucky and got the only two bad examples, ...
