Good Points

Easy to use.


Bad Points

No volume control on DVD player - requires that TV be turned up way too high. Runs very, very hot.


General Comments

I have owned my RCA RC5215P DVD player for just over a year (so of course the warranty no longer covers it) and it has bit the dust. It no longer powers on. After unplugging and replugging several times, I finally disconnected the entire unit and noticed an odour - that of burnt out motor parts. From the moment I connected the player after buying it I noticed how hot it would get, but didn't think it was that big of a deal. Apparently it is and now I'm forced to buy a new (NON-RCA) DVD player less than 2 years after purchasing this one. I've owned an RCA VCR since '96 and have never had any problems with it. From what I've read here and elsewhere, it sounds like a recall issue with this model of DVD player. Unfortunately, I don't think RCA cares a lick.
