Samsung DVD-V2000 DVD-VCR Combo
Piece of Junk
At first it seemed to work fine and I was delighted to own my first DVD player.  The only yellow flag was that one of the new exercise DVDs I had kept skipping to different angles on its own.  I thought that the DVD was defective, not the player, but after I exchanged the DVD, the replacement one did the same thing.  By this point, the 30-day return deadline on the DVD/video player was nearing.  Then, next thing I know, the DVD player stops recognizing some DVDs that I insert, giving me a message something like, \\"Cannot play DVD.  Check disk.\\"  Also, for videos, it randomly switches to \\"Hi Fi\\" audio mode, which means that the sound would suddenly blast at a high volume for a few seconds, then return to normal.  Now the thing won't play ANY DVDs.  Except for the initial problem with switching angles, all of the other problems occurred over a period of 2 days right at the cusp of the 30-day return window.  Now I'm stuck with a lemon that I need to ship at my own expense to be repaired.  Yes, the manufacturer warranty covers parts and labor, but not hassle and annoyance.  What, me bitter?  You bet!
