Philips Magnavox DVD611AT DVD Player
Absolute piece of ...
I bought this DVD player at a major retail store as part of a package deal (buy a cell phone, get a free DVD player). It's worth about just as much as I paid for it. I took the first one back, got a replacement, and would up returning both models. I finally purchasing the \\"cheaper\\" model made by Apex (the AD1500), which works great.<br />This DVD player skipped on almost every disk, even new DVD's. Sometimes it wouldn't even load the disk, or play past the welcome screen. I returned the first one because the player skipped so much it made movies unviewable. Returned the second one because the disk tray would get \\"jammed\\" and refuse to open while it was grinding away, literally, at a disk. Really scary.<br />If there was a \\"zero star\\" rating, I'd give it that, because 1 star is too much.
