“Picture and sound quality are very good on this ”

written by eMagic81 on 21/06/2004

Good Points
Great picture and sound, stylish menus.

Bad Points
Very slow disc loading time, very high disc-loading failure rate (in my experience).

General Comments
Picture and sound quality are very good on this Toshiba SD-210E DVD player. When it works, it works! Many people are happy with Toshiba players and they do appear to come up top trumps in magazine reviews. I had an old Toshiba SD-110 before this, which was superb. The SD-210E however, has unfortunately been problematic from day one. From the day I opened the box, I have been experiencing very high failure rates. Nearly every disc is rejected saying "Please check disc" - every disc needs ejecting/reloading about 5 times before it is accepted. When the player does decide to work, it has an INCREDIBLY long loading time. I sent this off to a Toshiba-approved repair centre the week I bought it, it came back supposedly fixed. Worked normally for about 2 weeks, but again with very long loading times, and then same problems commenced once again. I wrote to Toshiba and received no reply whatsoever. Perhaps this was just my bad luck that I got one of the bad batch, but warranty's now up and it was money down the drain - I now have to buy a new player.
