For the money the system is not bad and is still working. The largest challenge is that, one can only adjust the sound of the unit on the bass subwoofer. There is no way to get the system to integrate with the remote for the DVD player or my TV. Also this is actually 2 systems and each works indepentdently. The sound is better than the staright TV but the above challenges do not make it worth the purchase. At least the system was not that expensive and I only wasted a little money, but a waste non the less.

I just got this item two (2) days ago to replace a broken 5.1 system. I thought that the price was too good to pass up. For roughly $60 I have a system that I am very happy with. It has all of the remote control abilities that the expensive units have and has surprisingly good sound and video quality. If you are looking for a low-priced system I would recommend it. The shipping was extremely quick as well.

I love this thing, I have a small office, and the audio from the tv , just doesn’t cut it , this system wont change your life, but if you have a small room , you cant beat the price.

Even though the seller does state that the product pictured is not the actual product, it is COMPLETELY different from what it pictured. It’s more of a portable dvd player than a home version. Certainly nothing I would purchase to be used in my home.

The product pictured is of a more traditional home DVD player. I expected at least a home DVD player, but this one hails in comparison to home DVD player.

Sure, the price was right, for a home DVD player. For this portable-ish dvd player, I never would have gotten it. And, it’s not even that portable, in that it only accepts 110 volt AC. Not even a 12-volt DC option to put in a vehicle. I could live with it if this were the case.

I bought this unti to send to my Dad, and it was over a month before I made the 550 mile trip to see him, by that time it was too late to return. So, it sits on teh corner collecting dust. A home DVD player was purchased in place of this one.

Very, very, VERY disappointed in this product!

How difficult would it be to get a photo of the actual unit being purchased?

Of course, had I seen an actual photo, I wouldn’t have purchased this one. But I would have purchased what was really needed. And maybe from the same company.

SO, buyer beware of buying anything from this place. You’ll certainly not get anything close to what the photo suggests.
