    This is the best DVD bluray player I've bought, Even though I'm on the second one of this model. The first one flat out just stopped playing bluray discs at about 4 months in. No malfunctions yet. The floor manager at Best Buy said since I've had so much trouble, that I could bring it back for an exchange ANY time. No questions asked.

    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!!
