Apex AD-1600 DVD Player
Functional - but only barely
I can't agree more that you get what you pay for --- especially with this model.  The unit does work, but there are many problems.<br />1) Display<BR>The characters on the digital display are extremely difficult to read ... almost cryptic.<br />2) Menu<BR>The menu system is difficult to navigate - compared to the Toshiba and Sony units I already own.<br />3) Software Issue<BR>After playing a DVD and sitting idle for a while (like overnight), the unit freezes up and won't respond to commands.  The only way to resolve the problem was to power the unit off and on.<br />In short - the unit does play DVDs and MP3s as promised.  The remote is functional.  The mechanical aspects of the unit are acceptable.  However, for another [money] you can get a more robust and easier to use machine.
