Apex AD-1125 DVD Player
ZERO - Avoid Apex
I concur with F. Littlefield's review of August 28, 2004. <br />This is the biggest piece of junk I ever owned. In fact, I just yanked it out, beat it to a pulp (After removing my new DVD of \\"The Italian Job,\\" and threw it away. Half the time, it takes 10-12 tries to get a DVD to \\"load,\\" meaning you have to open, close, wait; open, close, wait... <br />There are also frequent skips and freeze-ups during playback. Apparently, it does not handle dual layer discs well at all. <br />You get what you pay for. If you want headaches, buy this. If you want to watch DVD's spend another hundred dollars for a player that works!  <br />Another drawback: Apex apparently uses proprietary remote control codes, meaning you cannot program your cable or satellite remote's AUX function for the DVD.
