Panasonic DVD-RV32K DVD Player, Black
3 disks in 10 months then stopped!
I purchased this unit as a Christmas gift for my parents in December 2002.  We set it up for them and it worked fine.   They used in once after that, in mid-2003.   They tried using it again just now (November 1st, 2003); they attempted playing a VCD (with JPG's on it) but the player couldn't read it (although it works fine on other DVD players) and when they tried one of my DVD-R's (which also work fine on other DVD players), they get nothing!   <br />In fact, the OPEN and CLOSE functions display those words, yet the disk tray does nothing (although the disk is spinning).<br />So it seems my parents got a lemon; 3 uses in 11 months and then nothing...   labor warranty is of course only 3 months...  Price of a new DVD player is less than the labor.   <br />Too top it off, the DVD is stuck in the machine with no way to get it out (unlike PCs which have a little hole for you to help manually eject a stuck disk).<br />I'd say stay away!
