3.0 out of 5 stars a hit-and-miss product, June 19, 2002

I have owned my oritron dvd100 for approx. 18 months, and overall, I would say it has served me quite well. It has had many problems, but none that rebooting it didn't fix. The only major gripe I have with this product is that it will not play vcds. There is a way to "enable vcd playback" in the menus by hitting a special combination of buttons on the remote [...] but I still have had no luck with it. The other major issue I have is not with my oritron, but with the one my sister bought, it worked for about a month and then stopped, and nothing seems to make it work again, it won't even eject anymore. So all in all, I would have to say be careful with the oritron brand, make sure you can return it if it doesn't work right off the bat.

1.0 out of 5 stars NOT a bargain, December 12, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Oritron DVD-100 DVD Player (Electronics)

Don't be tempted by the price ...since within 6 months I had to buy a replacement for it. This DVD player is of very poor quality, even for a low priced unit. It skips and freezes, the picture is poor, the sound is poor, it is difficult to hook up, especially if you also have a VCR hooked up to the same TV, it responds slowly, if at all, to remote commands, it is just plain buggy....and then it just quits. Oritron does not stand behind their product (for obvious reasons) and offered no help (once I reached anyone). A HUGE waste of time, effort, money and stomach lining. ...

1.0 out of 5 stars AVOID AT ALL COST, November 4, 2001

I bought this unit as a first time, inexperienced buyer. While it worked well 3-4 times, it stopped working. I have now gone through 5 units in ten months. I bit the bullet and bought the Sony NS300. Only a few bucks more, better picture and sound, and it works. Just my opinion.
