I was excited to get a brand name DVD player at such a reasonable price (275). I have several other Toshiba products in my household and they work flawlesly. Not the case for this DVD player. It worked fairly well for the first year with MINIMAL useage, but in the second year it started to fail / would not play discs that worked fine in every other player in the house. Eventually, it just stopped reading discs all together. I did not get 2 years out of the 1400 despite minimal useage. Another review summed it up perfectly - expect a year or two and about 75 hours of playing time before the unit fails. This is especially awful when the player fails as you're flying or driving with a small child who doesn't understand - "the player is broke". Toshiba has scared me off from buying their DVD players. I'll try my luck with a SONY or PANASONIC.
