Customer Ratings & Reviews

Finally, I got a basic DVD up-conversion player the works great and didn't cost a bundle either. My previous two Samsung DVD-C500 units both failed in less than 6 months, plus they 'growled' while playing since day one. This little Sony is so quiet I don't even know it's playing. Also love that the 'remote menu' really takes you to the Play Movie screen with one push, bypassing all previews. Money well spent plus a decent up-conversion 1080p DVD picture makes me a happy movie buff.

The DVD player was easy to install. It is sleek, lightweight, and takes up very little space. It works great! Very affordable.

Works great. Easy set up. Remote is a plus. Happy to have this device to enjoy my dvds.

I got this to replace a different unit that failed. Other unit was a Magnavox. I've only watched a few movies on it so far, so I'm not exactly sure if the DVD quality is a blame (15 year old dvd's), old hdmi cable or unit itself. I doubt it's the unit. All movies have played flawlessly with varying quality. Unit itself is best controlled with remote. Only basic open/close, power, play/pause and stop. The setup menu offers more than what the unit can dish out in our home. I assume more options for home theater and newer tv's. Overall I think I got a great buy since it's only for a movie once a month with only a roku soundbar. Under $50 total delivered. It's worth it.

Nice size, good quality, fits well with our other devices.

Very easy to use compact design fit well into the space that we needed it to the HDMI inputs made it very easy for me to install and once I played a movie the picture was just gorgeous I couldn't be happier!!!!

The dvd player functions well and is very reasonable cost wise. I Love that it enhances a standard dvd movies it plays. The slim line body in black is ideal. The operator is very easy to use and just the right size. Overall a excellent product.

Excellent! Easy to operate. Slim design. Great quality. Awesome price. Well worth it! Highly recommended!

It is definitely a no-frills piece of equipment. If you're a consumer/ user who likes LCD display on your player, this is not the model for you. Otherwise, the image/ pixilation is very good; the remote is easy to maneuver with (although sometimes there's a lag factor with the tray open/close) the player. Although here, some may find an issue: This model is VERY remote-dependent. Maybe I've been out of the market for awhile, but my last purchase at least allowed manual input.

I have only used the CD playera couple of times, but have enjoyed the quality of the player and how easy it is to use it. I also was happy that it was so easy to get set-up and start usinf. A good quality product.

Inexpensive. Small...it doesn't take up valuable realestate on my TV stand. Exceptionally simple to connect and play. Does a nice job of enhancing older DVDs that I have. I am delighted with this DVD player. Thanks to the salesman who listened to my needs and then recommended this unit (which he also has at his home).

Very nice small DVD player. Simple setup, easy remote. Purchased it to use in RV. Great picture on LCD TV. Be sure to buy HDMI cable to use with this player.

Good price, well made. Very slim and looks nice. Very easy to use.

I bought this for my dad who didn't want to deal with a bluray player that would require software updating in the future. He also wanted something simple that young grandkids could operate. This item was a home run. I connected it to his HDTV with an HDMI, and an old DVD from 2002 looked like a bluray. Great picture, decent remote (buttons are a tad small, but you get used to it fast), very user friendly, simple, and has great sleek styling. Would buy again in a heartbeat. Sony continues to put out great products!

great price, easy to set up, picture looks great! The upconversion definitely helps when going to a 4k TV

Our Toshiba DVD player for our 2nd TV in the basement broke after 10 years. I wanted an inexpensive replacement. I was going to go with the super-cheap Insignia, but the helpful Best Buy rep explained to me that this Sony includes an HDMI connection and has the HD upconversion functionality. Since it is an HD TV I thought this made sense. After a few weeks' of use, I have some feedback. Overall, the DVD player has been working well. Very easy setup for the machine itself, just plug and play. It is surprising how small it is, about half the size of my old machine. My quibbles are as follows: 1) The remote it comes with is too small and hard to press the buttons. Instead, I programmed my TV remote to turn it on/off. 2) The DVD player does not respond to a remote very well. At first I thought it was the too-small remote, but my TV remote has the same issue. My guess is because the DVD player itself is too small, there is less "surface" area for it to respond to the remote? 3) Programming my TV remote to the DVD player was annoying. For some reason, the instructions did not include the standard Sony codes for universal remotes. I found several online but these didn't seem to work either. I finally used the "manual" process via the remote itself to discover the signal and connect it. What should have taken 2 minutes, took 20. Like I said, some minor quibbles, so overall I recommend this DVD player. While I'm probably putting too much stock in the quality of the "Sony" name, I hope I can get several years of use out of it.

I have purchased 4 of these players. They are compact, well priced and have a good picture. Installation is also easy, which is a must for me!

affordable dvd, easy setup, sharp pic, hdmi slots, luv it!!!!!!!!!

Perfect sized DVD player for what we wanted. Doesn’t take up a lot of space. Setup was very easy which is fortunate because instructions were poor...more visual with diagrams than text. Comes with cables (multi-colored plugs) but our TV set (new) doesn’t have appropriate plugins to match (however would fit with older sets) but our set has HDMI so bought that cable separately at minimal cost. Overall very pleased. Bought due to reasonable cost and the Sony name. We also didn’t want a blu-ray player so this met our needs.

Nice and small with quality picture. Buttons are small and stiff. Good for guest rooms
