Summary: Excellent DVD player at the right price!
Review: I recently bought this DVD player as a replacement to one that I purchased several years ago. I was amazed at the technological leaps that the players have made in the intervening years. In addition to playing DVD's, this Panasonic player can also play VCD's and CDR's with MP3 files on them. Of course, the MP3 files that you want to play should be at least 128 k/bit, but they should be anyway for decent quality.

Overally, I am very pleased with this player. It is very easy to hook up, and offers connections for S-Video as well as composite. The picture quality is superb when connected using an S-Video cable.

If you are looking for a decent DVD player at a great price, this is the player for you.

Summary: Poor Quality DVD - Constantly Skipping
Review: I recently purchased this DVD player based on the reviews it had received. However, the DVD player I recieved in the mail today seemed to be an exception to them. After a relatively easy install (despite the fact that Panasonic did NOT include an S-Video cable), I popped in a DVD and expected to see high resolution video. However, I had trouble from the beginning. The remote was hard to use and the selector/enter keys didn't work. The movie skipped and eventually froze. I tried 3 DVD's to make sure that it wasn't the disc causing the problems. I haven't tried the MP3-CD option, mostly because my new toy was quickly being packed-up and driven to the post office. I requested a replacement DVD, convinced that a quality company such as Panasonic would not sell defective products.

Summary: Great features for a great price...
Review: I wanted a DVD player with a selection of features but was not up to paying [too much for it]. Panasonic is company which makes quality products. Not only does it play DVD/VCD/CD/MP3 with CD-R, and CD-RW playback, it has a built in Digital Dolby and Digital DTS decoder, which means you'll have an incredible surround sound experience that no other DVD player offers at this price range. This was my main motivating factor for purchasing a DVD. I easily hooked up the DVD player to my 6 speaker stereo system and I now have a movie theater in my own home. This player is well worth it.

Summary: A graduation present
Review: I was looking for a graduation present for my son and this fit the bill perfectly. Up to now he was using his PS2. This player is perfect for entry level DVD and for a very good price it has some plenty of useful features.

Summary: Piece Of Junk. Do Not Buy!
Review: I will never buy anything again from Panasonic after purchasing this piece of junk. I had it for a year almost to the day and used it probably 10 times. Then one day it gives me this H02 error and stops working. I search on the internet about this error and find a thousand other angry customers complaining about the same problem, all saying they didn't even use it that much but it still failed. I called Panasonic who said they wouldn't do anything because it had been over a year. There should be laws against making products so cheap they can't even be used 10 times without failing. What a waste of money.

Summary: Nice if it continued to work.
Review: I will start out by saying that I loved this DVD player. It did everything I wanted it to do and di it very well. No complaints on the actual performance. My 1 star is because I have owned two of them already and they have both given "H02" errors which, from my understanding, means they need a new laser which is about $90. They both failed after the warranty period. It starts at digitized boxes happening during DVD play (have cleaning products for the player and the DVDs) and soon progresses into ruined machine. So now my second failed with the same error and I can't bring myself to get it fixed or get another for fear of a threepeat.

Summary: So far, so good....
Review: I've had mine for just over a week and I love it. I don't play MP3's (yet) so that feature I cannot comment on. But once you get used to the remote's layout, this DVD player is very easy to use. I also thought that the set-up of the unit was a piece of cake! I imagine that over time the price can only come down. Still a bargain, though. Go for it!
2 months later.... this DVD Player is humming along great. No problems at all. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Summary: Pretty good
Review: It is pretty good for the money. The only I thing I noticed is that the color seems to fade in and out when I am watching a DVD. It may be my TV because I would not notice it unless the picture is clear (which a DVD is). But otherwise it is a great buy.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Good
Review: It seen to be a good product. I like the way you view each figure for the product.
