Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The ideal accessory for either a living room or a child's bedroom or play area, Disney's red, Classic-styled DVD/CD player from Memorex is equipped to handle DVDs, CDs, homemade audio CD-Rs and CD-RWs--even content policing (parental locks let you prohibit specific DVDs). The set's high Disney fashion derives from its fun shape and cute, detachable yellow "feet." The player also includes an entertaining, Disney-designed screen saver and customized onscreen user interface.

For added convenience for both parents and children, the player comes with not one but two remote controls: a full-function model and a simplified one for the kids (offering power, play, pause, stop, and forward and reverse chapter-skip buttons).

A snazzy Disney logo enlivens the front panel, and kids will love the buttons arranged in the famous Mickey Mouse silhouette. Other features include a choice of composite- and S-video outputs, Dolby Digital 5.1-channel surround output (for use with a a full-featured audio/video receiver), picture zoom, and multi-speed playback (forward/reverse).

4.0 out of 5 stars Piece of Garbage!, January 28, 2004

By	J. Brittman "The Bottom Line" (Long Island, New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

My son got this DVD player as a birthday present this past July (2003) and it had trouble reading some DVD's. As of January of 2004 this piece of junk completely stopped working all together. It will not recognize or read ANY dvd's it just spins them. I have tried cleaning it but it will still not read. I even called Memorex who said that I would have to pay $100 to have it fixed (yeah, right). Anyway, it may look cute but it is completely unreliable and simply does not work. For shame, Disney for lending your name to such a shoddy piece of junk. AVOID!!

1.0 out of 5 stars disney princess dvd player ...cute product...bad experience, February 8, 2004

By	renee (massachusetts) - See all my reviews

My daughter received the disney princess tv, dvd player, and clock for her birthday last july. At first everything seemed fine. The product was very cute and the picture quality on the tv was very nice. the dvd player occasionally smelled of very faint melting wire and stopped playing because it could no longer read the dvds. I returned the dvd player to the store that it was purchased at and got a new one. the 2nd dvd player stopped working within 1 month. same smell only this time it shows a picture but no sound. the store does not want to return it and the warranty is up with memorex. my daughter is 3 and she is heart broken. she cried when the player broke and wants a new princess dvd player that works. I am very disappointed also, but I do not want to purchase the same player that will just break again. now she has the whole princess product line but cannot use the dvd player.

3.0 out of 5 stars No problems...but..., June 15, 2005

By	SuckaMC "KB" (Somewhere) - See all my reviews

We have had this DVD player for well over a year now with no problems at all...and we're talking about a kid who has scratched the heck out of every DVD he owns! Sorry to say it folks: But either you've got some bad luck in getting the one faulty product in the bunch...or your kids are doing something to the DVD player that they shouldn't.

Besides the complaints of reliability, I'm surprised no one else had pointed out the one thing that irks me to no end: The lack of arrows/menu control on the remote!! In other words...the remote has play, pause, stop, FF, RW...and that's it! I don't know what moron thought of this scheme. Let's see...I buy, say, Disney's Aladdin with a ton of extra features...and there is no way for the DISNEY DVD player to play them! Or even more frustrating: Let's say you pop in a televison series...like Batman the animated series... for example...there's no way to move the selection to play the other episodes!! You better hope that when you pop in a DVD, the highlighted selection defaults on 'PLAY MOVIE' or else your kids are watching whatever it does default to.

I haven't attempted to try an aftermarket remote...but I am completely dumbfounded on why they left selection arrows off. Kids made need things to be simplified, but they aren't stupid.
