Summary: Don't expect too much
Review: I'd say you've got a 50-50 chance at repairing damaged discs with this item. I've only used it on audio CD's, and I've gotten results ranging from nothing (even after several uses) to restoring previously unplayable discs. It's paid for itself thanks to my excessive collection of damaged discs, but I wouldn't rely on it.

Summary: SKIP DOCTOR GREAT AT FIRST
Review: When I first purchased this item I thought it was great. It really did salvage quite a few CD's that were unusable. But after a few weeks and lots of 'Skip Doctoring' the handle broke. The company I purchased it from (online) was not willing to repair or replace so I was out the [$$].I liked the Skip Doctor so much that I purchased the motorized version because I thought it would be easier to use since I wouldn't have to turn the crank constantly. It is easier with one exception: The button you have to push to open to insert/remove disk is so hard it made my finger sore after a few attempts. The CD resurfacing wheels become unusable fairly quickly also. They are [$$] plus shipping for 2 and are hard to find in stock.

Summary: it really works!
Review: I think this machine is great! I have repaired 3 dvd movies without damaging them, and they now play again. Maybe the cheaper model dvd players will not recognize them but my Sony did just fine!

Summary: Too bad you have to give it a star at all
Review: I just bought this product today and I am taking it back tomorrow. DO NOT PURCHASE THIS ITEM. I tried it on 1 music CD and not only did it not fix the small scratch but attempting to take it out it cracked the cd when I tried to pry it from it's kung-fu grip. I wish I would have just bought the cd again. If I were allowed to use explicatives on this review I would use up the 1,000 letter maximum.

Summary: Don't Waste Your Money!
Review: I bought this for $29.99. If I would have been able to use it before I purchased it, I wouldn't have paid more than $5.00.
First off, it's a cheap piece of plastic. Second, you have to crank this stupid thing for about three minutes clockwise and counterclockwise. Mine, only went counterclockwise, it wouldn't go clockwise like the directions said it would. The cleaning solution is nothing more than water, it even says on the bottle.
There are plenty of other cleaners out there for $9.99.
I wrote this review based on cleaning DVD's.

Summary: They're great!
Review: I scratched my windows xp pro disc accidentally and I would have had to pay $250 to replace it. I figured $30 was an acceptable risk. My gamble payed off. I followed the directions exactly and though my CDROM drive reads my CD a little slower now, I think it is a lot better than not at all! Also thos little marks that are made by my data doctor are'nt as bad as people make them out to be. They leave for the most part after you buff the cd with that little square they give you

Summary: Not on DVDs
Review: I used this product on an Xbox game (which uses DVD format) The game was partially usable before. After the DVD doctor got finished with it, the game became completely unusable; the Xbox does not even recognize it anymore. I had followed the directions to the T. The general consensus seems to be that this thing works great on CDs (I didn't try a CD myself). But from my experience, and what I've now read online, this thing destroys DVDs. Buy it if you need to fix your CDs, not your DVDs.

Summary: Messed up XBox Discs!
Review: I bought this item and took it out of the package, cleaned Gotham Racing, DOA3, and HALO. I was stupid and didn't try out each disc after I was done cleaning it. I ended up ruining all 3 discs and my XBox won't even read them! Don't buy this Product it destroys Disc! I lost $150 Due To this item don't make the same mistake.

Summary: Works like a champ
Review: I bought this because I have 3 music CDs that have skipping problems. I should say HAD skipping problems. I opened the box, read their little quick get-started sheet, slapped in my old U2 Joshua Tree CD, sprayed it a few times, and started cranking the wheel. In less than 2 minutes I had cranked the CD around twice, removed the CD, (which I accidentally dropped on the floor because it sort of popped out) wiped it dry, buffed it, and put it in the CD player and went to the track that I knew had skipping at the beginning of the song. The CD played like new. Three CDs fixed, it has paid for itself already tonight. Now, if I could just remember which of my other CDs have skips that I've forgotten about....
