Customers are saying

Customers love the product's exceptional ease of use, strong overall performance, and attractive price point. They also appreciate its compact size, lightweight design, impressive speed, and quiet operation, along with its convenient USB-only power and broad compatibility. The only notable concern raised by customers is the requirement for separate software when using it with a Mac.

    I bought a different brand a short while ago and it was not sturdy enough. So far this one is much better. Plus it is quiet.

    Excellent device for the money. Does what it is intended and is a very good buy. I would recommend this as part of a package for laptops with no existing CD/DVD drives.

    This was a great purchase to go along with our new laptop which did not have a built-in CD drive. It’s lightweight and portable so it’s easy to use when we need it and store when we don’t.

    This device was easy to install. I do wish manufacturers would quit loading products in their software and try to make it appear you need the GArBAGE to make their stuff work!

    One of the easiest external dvd reader/player to use if you have a laptop or all in one computer that didn't come with an internal one. It just requires ONE USB to power and read dvds.
