Good Points
It was easy to set up, came with batteries for the remote and the power button worked.

Bad Points
Nothing plays without stopping every 2 seconds.

General Comments
I bought the DVD player from Asda yesterday for £35. I got it home and set it up (Which was delightfully simple after my last player). I then turned on the power and relaxed for a long night of movie heaven. But alas, not one of my DVDs (all originals) worked for longer than 2 seconds, the player couldn't recognise any original CDs, CD-R/RWs or MP3 CDs. So I took the thing back and got a replacement. Only to find I was back in the store an hour later after the same thing happened again. DON'T BUY ONE OF THESE!!!!!!!

i have two of these DVD's and i also bought one for my mother-in-law and another friend ...i was advised to buy one and everyone i know who has one is happy with it....without doubt value for money ...second to none.
 
 i can only think that anyone who has problems with playing Disc's has not DE-CODED it, to do this you need to simply press a few buttons on our remote and away you go....note if it does not DE-CODE first time enter the code has instructed again ...you will get it if not the first time then second or third ...but it work has i have done it at lease 4 times ....PLEASE NOTE THIS COULD MAKE YOUr WARRANTY VOID..but i don't know anyone who has taken one back..
 and this is all you have to do....
