Toshiba SD1800 DVD Player
Excellent value
I really don't know what is going on with some of these negative reviews.  I bought this DVD player almost two years ago and it has served me very well with no real problems.  I needed a DVD player that could play multiple formats, particularly VCDs, and wasn't too expensive.  I decided on this model and I am more than happy with my purchase.  The Enhanced Picture and Audio modes are useful and it doesn't take up a lot of space on the TV stand.  My gripes are few and minor.  The remote could have been better designed with more distinctions between buttons.  This would help enormously in low light.  The fast forward speed on VCDs could be faster, but that's not too big of a problem.  Finally, I've noticed significant picture breakup on burned DVDs, but this only happens towards the end of the movie for some reason.  This may be the fault of the disc, but then I tried it on my PS2 and didn't experience the picture problems.  Despite these minor glitches, Toshiba really produced a winner with this player.  Anyone looking for a value-priced and feature-rich DVD player should consider this model.
