    Not bad

    I bought this because the drive in my laptop stopped working and it's not worth replacing, but I still like to have some backups on CD and DVD. Unit is small and light, feels a little cheap but seems to work pretty good. Software took about 20 minutes to install, including updates and patches. Unit is quiet while burning but loud when it spins up and winds down. Included cable is rather short and does not have a Y adapter, but my powered USB hub is powerful enough for it to work. Burned a CD RW and a DVD RW, no problems at all. I had no problems at all with plug-and-play on Windows 10. Overall I'm happy with this unit.

    Great price and works well - plug and play into Win 10 laptop. it does make a little sound when in use then goes silent. It is also very light and probably need to watch out to not stack anything on it.

    This did not work with my computer which has Windows 10 installed. You cannot see until you open it that the product states it isn't compatible with 10.

    This advertised that it was compatible with Apple computers, but it is not. It will only play a regular DVD. Absolutely no writing capabilities.

    This is a slim line cd DVD recorder player. It did work plug and play Windows 10 for me with no issues. This is a nice looking product that did what it was supposed to do. Unfortunately, this is becoming an increasingly rare attribute in today's world
