Cheap - be warned.......2007-05-31

I guess you get what you pay for - this player is cheap with a cheap remote (that stopped working within one month), a cheap loading tray and pretty poor performance.
Yes - it plays multi-region DVD's but when it plays them with pixelated images and you can't use half the functions because the remote doesn't work, this player becomes a bad buy.
Plus, the warranty from the seller was only 15 days.
Avoid this player and get something decent. There are too many reviews like this for this player. Be warned.

Works out of the box - no thrills.......2007-05-21

The unit looks good (well, except for the remote, which could look better - it has, compared to the player, a cheap plastic look. It plays European PAL DVDs as if they were U.S. NTSC DVDs - no menus, switches, or the like. The video output quality is great. Love it!

Also noteworthy: If you have an older receiver unit without digital audio inputs, this player is your friend. It has, aside of digital outputs, 5+1 analog outputs - something that it increasingly hard to find nowadays.

Mine does not work.......2007-05-01

I bought the DVDP5851, and I was surprised when I received the box and I saw the "Region 1" logo printed on it. The user manual also says that this player will only play region 1 DVDs. Just in case, I popped in a Region 3 disc and got the "unknown disc" message. Is there anything I need to do?

No problem setting up and played DVD that I couldn't play on old system.......2007-04-07

I bought this because I couldn't get to all the options on the newer DVD's like the interviews. Worked great! I thought I would have a problem setting it up because I had a lot of things hooked up to my TV but it was no problem! Great Buy!

Akai DVDP5851 Multizone Multivolt DVD Player.......2007-04-01

I would love to give this one 5 stars, because it is a great player, very versatile. However, after less than one year, our AKAI gave up the ghost: it will no longer read any disks. Reluctantly, I may buy the same model again, because I like the design, features, and price. However, one other thing that I like less that 100% is the very large a clunky remote. Such a slick player, such a goofy remote control!
