 Great...for a while... April 30, 2006
When I first bought this player, it worked wonderfully. However, as many other people have found, it started popping oopen by itself after a few months. I just put something on top to keep it closed.
Also, it seems as though it has trouble reading disks when changing over from NTSC to PAL. Sometimes it takes a while for it to work.
Some minor plusses: it does play any format and region. I have had absolutely no trouble with VCDs and SVCDs, which I constantly make.
This would be an excellent player if it would just stay totally fixed.
 Not an isolated incident December 4, 2005

NO DISC... I had a similar problem, only mine was a little more long and drawn out. First off, about a year before it stopped reading discs completely, it just started popping open. It started happening more and more frequently until finally it wouldn't stay closed at all. I dealt with it though. Taped it closed, placed something on the cover, then there were tehe disc errors. I'd turn it off and on 2 or three times before it would play properlly. Then, the 'No Disc' message became permenant. At leas the screen still works. For what it's worth. Don't buy it. Also It won't work without the remote. What a pain in the bum.
Cheap pile of Crap. April 26, 2005

Why buy this DVD player when a squirrel on a generator, hooked to a old 1981 Apple Computer screen wired with coat hangers to a typewriter would be more reliable.
I was given this as a gift for Christmas. I used it during road trips and otherwise it was kept locked away in my closet. During the 2nd half of the third road trip, the player stoppped working. NO disk would load. It told me no disk was in the player. I tried a DVD, CD, MP3 Disk, Picture disk...nothing. I called APEX. After sending me thru the most elementary set of problems like unplugging the thing for 30 seconds, trying an unscratched disk (duh), and cleaning it with a laser disk cleaner they said it must be an internal problem. (YA THINK!) The cost of shipping, labor, and maintenance is more than the cost of the player. Thus I'll be sending this pile of crap to the nearest electronics recycling center and buy something with SONY or PHILIPS written across it. Thanks for nothing APEX.
