5.0 out of 5 stars Works with DVD Recorders, too!, September 6, 2005

I was about to retire an old standalone DVD recorder, because it would no longer let me create menus or finalize discs. I bought this lens cleaner and -- voila! -- the recorder is working again. Super easy to use (it's simply a DVD that you insert into your machine, and the menus tell you what to do). Highly recommended.

1.0 out of 5 stars Does Not Work on ALL DVD Players, May 4, 2006

First of all, the shipping on this item costs more than the item itself. I did get it quickly (2 or 3 days), but I had several problems with it:

(1) I repeatedly tried it on my DVD player and the player hung. Each time I had to unplug it and plug it back in to get it to respond. I tried over 10 times and got the same result each time.

(2) I tried it on DVD drive 1 on my computer and it hung as well. Had to Ctrl-Alt-Del to get my DVD player software to close. On the 3rd attempt it actually did work.

(3) I repeatedly tried it on DVD drive 2 on my computer. Each time I got a message saying "no disk".

I consider it item a waste of money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't work on my DVD players, April 25, 2009

None of my three DVD players (Sony, Magnavox, Proscan) will read the lens-cleaner disk. When I try to play it, I get either a "can't read" message (Sony) or a strange sound as if the player is trying, but unsuccessfully, to play the disk. I tried to run a replacement disk. Same result. A DVD player at Wal-Mart, where I had purchased the disk, played the disk without difficulty. Three different employees professed mystification at the inability of my DVD players to read the disk. Since the box containing the disk has no Maxell telephone number on it, I can't (as I would like) call Maxell to get their take on the problem. I feel ripped off.
