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.

    Were out of the Apple CD drive. So I got the LG for a fraction of the price. Compatible with Apple & works great. Very happy.

    since laptops no longer come with CD/DVD players this is a nice way to be able to listen to music, play games or back up the computer
