 Decent, Basic, Low-Cost DVD PlayerJul 15, 2011
By Lewis A. Edge
My old DVD player started malfunctioning, so it was time for a replacement. I had already tried Amazon's somewhat less-expensive Sony player, which was okay, but I wanted something slightly better. This progressive-scan DVD player offers stereo and surround sound and both composite or component video output. It can be configured to match just about any analog video display, but comes already configured for standard, American, analog TV sets. It also has a USB port on the front of it, for which I don't believe most people would have much use.
It loads video disks quickly, is easy to control with the included remote, remembers where it was playing a DVD when turned off, and has been able to play any disks that I've loaded into it. I tested commercial movies, copies of commercial videos and DVD videos that I've created myself and they have all played just fine.
For someone with a high-definition, large-screen TV set there are better but more expensive choices. However, for someone who wants an affordable, simple-to-use DVD player for a standard analog TV set, this player is well-priced, is reasonably compact and is easy to use. I'm definitely pleased with my purchase and believe, after shopping at several locations, that this player represents a good value for the money.

A Good BuyApr 21, 2011
By Ali Baba
I needed a new DVD player for my bedroom since my last one stopped working just like that. To date I'm quite happy with my purchase - there's a button on the remote control that slows down the picture which for me is a first and an eject tray button which many dvd remotes don't seem to feature. For now I'll give it 5 stars but I will update review my purchase in a couple months.

Simple and economicJul 26, 2011
By James T. Yeh
"appreciative"
I have DVDs, VCDs, of various format and the most recent DVD high-end player would not play. This DVD-S48 can accommodate these formats. It is simple to set up and just run out of the box. Can not beat its price either, less than a tank of gasoline. No complaints.

Such a deal!Feb 25, 2012

LOW LOW PRICE! Wow this was a steal of a deal! This player is super easy to use. I do not like complex equipment I just want to play the DVD and relax. I have had expensive Sony players that were so complicated to use it was painful! This is s breeze to use, and it has all the functions I need. Did I mention it was a steal of a deal?!!

 Good enoughJun 17, 2011
By T. Rieber
We are planning on buying an HD TV sometime in the next year or two, so we'll need a Blu-ray player at that point. We just got this because it was cheap, got decent reviews for the price, and figured it would be a disposable purchase. I hope it will last a few years until we buy our TV. If not, I won't be too heartbroken since we hardly spent any money on it. If it does, GREAT and we'll get to donate it. My husband's only complaint is that it seems to shut itself off sometimes (but not in the middle of a movie, so not that big of a deal).
