Panasonic DVD-CV52 5-Disc DVD Player
Not user friendly, there are better choices
I bought this player at Costco under the CV-37 model number.  It immediately aggravated me with an extremely poor user interface.  The remote is difficult to use, and there are virtually no buttons on the unit.  It takes 5 seconds for the unit to &quot;boot up&quot; to where it will take a command (like &quot;disc skip&quot; or &quot;open tray&quot;).  I was also amazed at how difficult it was to play a CD on random play.  It requires an arcane sequence of button pushes on the remote that you will surely forget between uses (and I am an electrical engineer).<br />I just took mine back to Costco and am now shopping for a new player that handles CD's better since this is how I use it 80% of the time.  Oh, I almost forgot.  The last straw was I rented a movie with some minor scratches and it wouldn't play it!  I take the movie back to the store, they put it into their machine, and it played fine!
