Good Points

Reasonably good cinema surround sound quality. Fairly good range of features.

Bad Points

Cheap quality, rather crude. Awful flickering picture. DVD unit buzz. Manual information limited.

General Comments

This Grundig GDV720 HT DVD Home Cinema System is a grim piece of kit. Even though a budget item, there is no excuse for the poor picture quality. The picture flickered - most noticeable on blue backgrounds, and lines passed across the picture. The DVD unit is rather crude, with a clunky on/off switch, and cheap looking finish. The DVD player buzzes constantly when switched on, and got rather warm after a time. On the plus side, the cinema sound quality was surprisingly good, and the range of features fairly comprehensive. Overall, I can't recommend this item. I took mine back for a refund.

    Decent review, I think its a little harsh though. The power button downside really isn't that important. The report you made of bad picture quality is very wierd, I have the same unit and the picture quality is amazing. Cant fault it, you must have a dodgy TV or scart lead to be getting these problems.

    I have had no problems with heat, flicker or picture quality. I love mine, it's always played movies in high quality and has awesome sound. I think maybe you have had a faulty usint or maybe you have poor TV.
