Summary: Piece of Junk (no sound after a year)
Review: This is amazing how technology behaves the same. I thought I had a loose connections or something and spent an hour to get the sound and it didn't work. Thanks to Amazon for this review and I decided not to waste anymore time. If so many people were having the same problems then it is the product which is faulty.

Summary: NO AUDIO - SAVE YOUR MONEY
Review: When I decided to buy this unit last year (from Amazon.com) the reviews were few, and positive. Now I am having the same problem as all the other reviewers. After one year of very light use, the audio is gone. Don't waste your money on a Toshiba - they know about this problem and continue to sell this unit.

Summary: Toshiba SD2710 DVD Player
Review: I purchased this DVD player in 2001, had very minor problem with setup and it has worked flawlessly for almost two years. The power supply circuit board went out; research showed me that there is a known design flaw with the circuit board. Toshiba customer service attitude was "its out of warranty" and became very rude when I described the design flaw to them. It is a piece of junk not worth the selling price -- or any price for that matter!

Summary: ...
Review: This machine is[bad]. I have had it less than two years, and it has been serviced twice. The first time, 20 days past the warranty, the machine powered off and wouldn't power on again. The technician explained that these DVD players have had a lot of trouble with the "power converter". Now, two months after having the power problem fixed, there is no sound.

STAY AWAY FROM TOSHIBA PRODUCTS!!!

Summary: It worked for a while
Review: I was happy with the picture and sound quality of this DVD player. However, after a year with little use, it suddenly ceased working. A fuse was blown and when replaced (I tried 3 new fuses) it continued to blow, so there must have been a short circuit. I ended up throwing it out since they are cheaper to replace than repair.

Summary: HUNK OF JUNK
Review: Just days past the 1 year warranty the power supply died and took the whole system with it. I worked great until it committed suicide.

Summary: TOTAL CRAP - SAVE YOUR MONEY!!!
Review: We bought this in June of 2002 -- eleven months ago. VERY LIGHT USE considering we don't have many DVD's and only rent a few each month. In the middle of a new DVD I bought for my kids, the sound started to get low and scratchy. I tested another movie just to be sure and that also had very low sound. It is now at the point where our audio is turned to MAX and you can just barely hear it. WHAT A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY. Looks like I'll be out to find a non-Toshiba unit at a LOCAL store. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT BUY A TOSHIBA DVD!!!!

Summary: Junk - Don't waste your money
Review: I was originally very happy with this unit. The picture quality was good, the audio was good, it was easy to use, etc. I found a couple of DVDs would stutter (Insomnia) and one other would never work despite trying several copies of the same DVD (Enigma). Then, with less than 1 year into using the player, its audio signal became so weak that it was barely audible with my AV amp at max and the front display stopped working. I called an authorized Toshiba service center to find out that my problem was not unique and that it would cost $95 to fix. Don't bother with this unit unless you are looking for a disposable DVD player to last you about a year.

Summary: Low Price = Low Value
Review: I bought the model SD-2710 through Amazon. After about 1 1/2 years of limited use (I also have a VHS player) the sound quit in the middle of a movie. Actually it was so low that you had to put your ear up to the speaker to hear. If one looks at the other reviews, one will find that I wasn't the only one with this same problem. With a limited 1 year warranty there was only two things left to do. 1. Throw the player out. 2. And remember not to buy another Toshiba.

Summary: This thing is a piece of garbage
Review: I have bought two of these, one for my mother, one for my mother in law. The first lost all video after 6 months, total write off. The second one lost all audio after 8 months. Unfortunately, the in-laws didn't use it for the first 7 months, then they sat down to watch a movie and no sound. Do yourself a favor and don't buy this junk, save your money, buy a different brand.
