Title: 4 months old and trouble...
Review: I had the predecessor to this model, which lasted a year before refusing to read any DVDs. I read the reviews on this model, which said that it was 'new and improved'.3 months after receiving it, and it can't play DVDs any more, and has a 1 in 4 success rate playing CDs.Most disappointed. When 'playing' DVDs (assuming it will even load the DVD), it stops every couple of seconds, pauses for around 10 seconds, and might play again for a couple of seconds, or freeze altogether.My second Philips DVD player, and despite being feature-packed, if it only lasts a few months...I won't be buying a Philips DVD player again, which is unfortunate as they normally make reliable equipment.Maybe I got 2 bad ones, but it's time for me to look elsewhere for a reliable DVD player.It gets a lot of good reviews, but I don't think the product is that old - it was released just over a year ago, I believe. So, time will tell how other people's players are for longevity.
Is the review positive or negative?
