5 out of 5 stars The little engine that could............2006-12-11

I bought this at Christmas time 3 or 4 years ago (along with the Apex AD-1200)from Circut City for $25 a piece. Let me tell you, these are the most dependable DVD players I have. Nothing fancy or flashy, but I wasn't looking to pay for that. They blow away my expensive Panasonic players. I can not express how happy I am and will be looking into more Apex products!!!

3 out of 5 stars does the job (depending...).......2006-02-03

cheap from wal-mart. problem... doesn't play DVD+R which sux. will only play my DVD-R. i think manufacturers should make this very clear somewhere in the description or packaging.

another problem is this thing hums real loud like a shaky internal motor or something. i fix the problem by inserting disc and then turning it on its side vertically upright. make sure you turn it back normal when ejecting (a dvd once fell into the player).

if you want a regular player for standard movies, this will play them. however, if you burn your own, make sure you get the right format blank DVD (DVD-R). 3 stars for good price...

2 out of 5 stars Not bad..,just not right for me.......2005-05-03

I've had my Apex 1201 for a few years and it's worked well, but we use it as our "spare" dvd player in the guest room. This DVD player will NOT play DVD+R discs, so I really have no use for it since most of my movies are on DVD+R. It plays DVD-R's and CDR's with no trouble.
This player is also very loud, so I wouldn't recommend it as your primary DVD player.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent DVD player.......2005-03-31

Are you in the need for an inexpensive DVD player? Apex is the one for you. I purchased mine for a low price, not expecting much. However, this player amazed me. For the price, it is a high-quality item, capable of playing DVDs, CDs, mp3s, and photo cds. While its looks may not be stylish, it offers a great performance for the price.

1 out of 5 stars 4 months and dead.......2005-01-31

I bought this on Sept 11, 2004. It died on Jan 29, 2005.
My compliments to Apex for getting it to work past the 90 day warranty so they don't have to repair it. Even if it were within the 90 days, good luck on contacting them through their website since almost everything clickable on their homepage causes some kind of error with every one of the three browsers I tried.

I don't mind they don't have an 800 number but it turns out their service number from the US is to Canada.

No more Apex for me!
