    Blue ray DVD players aren’t as popular nowadays since everyone has streaming. But we were so thankful that Best Buy could order one for us and the price was very reasonable. The sales associate Jesus was friendly, helpful and professional! We had a great experience and also the DVD player arrived at the time they quoted so we picked it up and are enjoying all of our favorite DVD’s!!

    In general, these things seem to have a shelf life. They last several years, then mysteriously stop working; even the "videophile" (expensive) grade ones. The picture this puts out is almost the same as one that cost ten times as much. I watch 4K on a 110" screen. For something that has become "disposable", not to bad. And when it breaks, I won't care. Just toss and get another one!

      Hi BrianK,

      Glad you’re seeing that "videophile" quality on your 110" screen! It’s great that the S1700U is holding its own against much pricier gear.
