Like others, dead within a year
Title says it all; I bought this with a Samsung TV and rarely watch movies (one a month) and this DVD player was dead within 9 months (purchased 10/16/08, dead 6/5/09).

Dead in 3 hours
First disc played, sound was cutting out (using sound from TV via HDMI). Tried another disc, same thing. Changed HDMI cable, no luck.

Dead in less than a year.
Worked great for about 6-7 months aside from occasionally needing to turn it off and back on in order to get the HDMI to link up.

Impressive
I bought this player for my bedroom tv (also a Samsung), excellent sound and picture. Easy setup and easy to use. Great price! What’s not to like?

Not reliable
I ordered a Samsung refurbished upconverting DVD player, but the vendor, Retail Killer, sent me this Memorex one, and refused to allow me to return it, because it wasn’t…

Samsung like no other
My 1st HD DVD player and I am truly impressed. Samsung has again not disappointed me with their quality or service.

It works
I recently purchased this product and find that many of the reviews are fairly accurate, both positive and negative. It does convert to a great HD like picture.

Piece of Junk
I bought this DVD player in June08 and it has stopped working in Apr09.
I should add that we seldom watch movies using the DVD player and yet its not able to last a year.

Terrible Experience
This product completely broke down just a few days after the 90 day warranty on parts and labor expired. Needless to say I did not buy another Samsung DVD player.

Extremely poor product
I usually do some research before I buy any audio/video product. Unfortunately, I did none prior to this purchase.
