Works great
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At first I was a little turned off by how cheap this DVD player feels. It’s made of really lightweight plastic. However, I used it for about two weeks and played 4 different movies on it with zero problems. I’m happy with how it runs.

LG are my home products.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.New laptops don't have built ins of DVD/CD players no more. For $25 bucks can't beat it. I still like to burn CD's of my music and concert downloads...I will be on the road again this summer for my Dead Tour!! Recommend. No issues this far!!

great value for basic use
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This replaced the superdrive for me on my new IMAC since apple decided to go completely to the cloud, which I won't. So I have an extensive cd collection which I can play... also I can transfer the rest of my older video collections and home movies to dvds

great device
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to get this for Turbo tax because the other one would not communicate with Windows 10 after my update. Seems to work well, I do not use it that much so the price was the selling point for me.

Easy to use, works right away CD / DVD drive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Laptops are rarely fitted with internal CD / DVD drives these days. How are you supposed to rip that bargain find from that garage sale? No worries, just plug this bad boy in and rip away! Works as intended, speedily and efficient!

A good addition for computers
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this when the built-in DVD writer in my desktop stopped working. The software was easy to install and both the desktop and the laptop accepted it. It is compatible with both units and there have been no problems using it.

DVD attachment review
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Usable. Efficient, but not exciting. Bulky. Difficult to transport from one room to another. Attachment points unfasten easily and at very inconvenient times. Even the slightest juggling or movement causes it to become disconnected from computer. if you aren't in the habit of moving around, might be alright. But if you are on the move, not the product for you.

Worked on old discs when my computer wouldn't
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I apparently haven't needed to use a CD or DVD on a computer in many years, and haven't transferred old photos/video that is stored on disc (shame on me). When a family member recently died unexpectedly, I was forced to attempt accessing old discs that were as old as 17 years. My iMac has a vertical slot, so not sure if that, plus not using it in so long, is why my discs weren't working. As a hail mary, I bought this external disc reader to see if I could save the pictures. Out of about 20 discs, I saved all but 1 disc's worth of files. Definitely worth it!
