Second time around is better

"The bad part:A refurbished product should have all bugs worked out. This one didn't. The disc holder would not open right from the start, so I never had a chance to use it.[...] I got a quick replacement player.The best part:Not only does it play so many formats of CD's and provides a beautiful picture on my HDTV, but I am able to easily play slide-shows of my pics from a flash drive by plugging it in to the USB..."

I already had several others (non-reconditioned) and thought I'd take advantage of this to obtain two more for the last two TV's in my house which don't have a device with USB input.[...] One seems to work but the other was dead on arrival. It will not..." Read Full Review »

"I use it to watch movies/shows. It's a great product! I haven't had any problems with any of the Philips Divx Player I've purchased. I even got a couple as gifts for friends/family.

"I just bought this DVD player, and right out of the box it does what it claims to do. It's a simple unit, made for no frills use. The main reason for buying this is to use it with my stereo system (by the TV, also) to play

MP3-coded CD's. Overall, for the price, this was a fair purchase. Here's why: …" Read Full Review »
