Purchased this item for my second TV in the den/office and have been very satisfied with the product. One caveat is to be careful with the tray, as it is a little delicate. My first unit developed a jam in the first few weeks of use and would not open or close. JVC replaced the unit under the warranty and I've been using ever since with no problems. Great video signal to my 37" Polaroid HDTV LCD via the HDMI interface. This unit has been in service for one year now with no problems whatsoever on the second unit provided by JVC.

Customer Reviews

JVC a mixed bag one hopes will be improved on - SF-cineaste - San Francisco
Agree with a prev. reviewer, Moskov's comments about the flimsy feel of the loading tray. Mine actually got stuck at one point and refused to close. After a lot of fiddling, I managed to open the player up and trigger it back in place. br /br /I was surprised that it handled more video formats than my newer usb-equipped Pioneer DV-400. And unlike the quirky Toshiba I replaced, it has no issues with dvd-r's. br /br /The remote wins no points for ergonomics. Worst of all, there's apparently no way to display time-remaining--only time elapsed! That omission is baffling, and I can sympathize if it's a deal-spoiler for some. br /br /That said, if the price were closer to the budget tier its build quality would suggest, JVC would be a good deal because of its format versatility. br /br /I'm hoping JVC will improve on this model: add USB, a better remote, a more informative display, and a sturdier build. They've got some major things right--why not go the rest of the way and really be a contender?
