User Comments about the Toshiba SDV-291 DVD/VCR Combo , Silver

Many DVD's would not play at all, or would take several attempts to play, even ones directly out of the box.At 21 months, DVD completely unusable, and heading to the donation pile.Very disappointed, nice looking unit, with decent interface controls. With good care of DVD's and limited use, this unit started showing alot of DVD play problems at 18 months. Cannot recommend at all.

I tried unplugging the unit and trying the eject button again without success. The first time I was able to get it out, but this time no luck. I received this unit as a Christmas gift 2004 and have had no problem with the DVD door. However, twice a cassette has become stuck in the VCR. Next step to call Toshiba for assistance, if no help no more Toshiba products

Stutters, freezes, and stops playing DVD's either new or rented. It might work 50% of the time. After reading positive reviews about this set have had nothing but problems when trying to view DVD's. It might be just my unit but I'm very dissatisfied with this model.

Just don't buy this one. Noises, recognition problems. DVD got so many problems. I should have a Samsung one instead; Japanese product doesn't guarantee the quality.
