Poor Color

Author's Rating: Rating: 2/5 stars

Pros: Solidly built, can use it overseas and it has a car plug.

Cons: Very poor color in dark scenes.

Author's Review
I bought this at Costco a few weeks ago and have already returned it because of poor color.

The unit seems to be built solidly. It is aluminum wheras most of the other units I have looked at are plastic.

It comes with a plug for your car, which is nice and will work with 120-240 volts. It can travel overseas, which some of the more expensive units cannot.

You can fast forward and rewind only with the remote. Without the remote, you can only skip back and forth between chapters. I did not use the battery, so I can't comment on it.

The sound is excellent, especially with headphones. While using in a car, we didn't need headphones.

The main problem I had was that in any scene that was slightly dark, it washed the colors out so badly that at times it looked black and white. I tried all the settings and adjustments and could not get this any better. If I want a DVD player, the color is important. The picture was crisp and clear, but the color did it for me. I have returned it and have bought a Panasonic.
