Pros & Cons
Pros
This compact unit performs as excepted. It can remember where you left off on a number of discs. Other than that, the player performs its purpose.
Worked right out of the box. No complicated setup. Does a great job of up-scaling. Easy to install and use.
Hdmi port is a must for a device like this and it has one. Plug it in, connect a hdmi cable from dvd to tv input. They love watching i love lucy and the andy griffeth show.
Cosmetically perfect, no scratches or dents. Picture is crisp and clear!

Highlights
Quality
It is compact and has a very easy to read (non-backlit) remote.
The words are clear and volume is great.
Set up is very easy, it’s virtually plug and play, it took my husband less than 5 minutes to get it going.
It often does not recognize desks, refuses to load, and will not play discs that work just fine on an older player.
Price
This is a great value for watching dvd’s.
Good price for compact dvd that work very well with new tv and is smaller in size.
Shipping
Not only did sony promptly address the problem but they offered free return shipment and a brand new replacement unit free of charge.
Competitiveness
The remote-to-player response is a little slow compared to other dvd players.
The pictures are comparing the outputs from the av to hdmi.
