Zenith DVB412 Ultra-Slim Progressive-Scan DVD Player
DVB412 premature failure
I bought the DVB412 through Amazon in December 2004 and it failed in August 2005.  For many months after purchase it was almost unused.  After about 3 months of use it gave \\"ERROR\\" on the display and rejected all DVDs I tried to play.  Cleaning the DVDs was no help.  I called Zenith's 800 number, and the lady immediately said \\"bad laser\\", but said unplug the unit for 30 minutes and try again.  This did not help.  I called Zenith again, they are willing to exchange the unit for $45 under the warranty which after 90 days covers parts only, not labor.  (Guess it costs them $45 to ship out another one!?)  I am thinking this player could be a lemon.
