Great Buy!!
This is a great DVD player. It even plays my "home-made" discs. That
makes it a must-have! It's SO good, that I've recommended it to all my
friends & I've even bought one for my parents.
Slim DVD player and still has S-VIDEO
I wasn't looking for anything fancy when I purchased this DVD player. I
needed a DVD player with a slim profile, still has S-VIDEO and is
cheap; this fit the bill and works great. I also gave one to my sis for
x-mas a couple of years ago and she hasn't had any problems with it.
Many DVD players are no longer shipping with the S-VIDEO port. If you
have an older TV with no HD ports like HDMI or Component but still want
decent video quality, this is should do the job just fine. It's also
slim and is not ugly. I've been using it for a year now with no issues
and my sister has gone 2 years with hers with no issues either.
