Six Months In, Still Happy

I bought this in December, and have used it mostly in-home, traveling with it only a handful of times.
DVD performance is quite acceptable. The transport is reasonably quiet, and the player responds quickly. The controls, both on the unit and on the remote, are not particularly intuitive, but all the needed functions are there.
Picture quality ranges from fair to very good. It's hard to get consistent saturated color, and on some program material (particularly letterboxed non-anamorphic movies), the pixel scaling is very noticeable. But on most contemporary anamorphic discs the image is quite satisfactory. My sample arrived with one dead pixel, which I decided to accept.
Disc compatibility: In addition to commercial discs, I've played CD-R, CD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD-R, MPG-DVD+R, JPG-CD-R, and JPG-DVD+R, all without compatibility issues.
JPG viewing: I found this feature nearly useless, as the screen's ability to scale images is nearly nonexistent. Images not at the screen's native resolution look like much.
Traveling: The battery yields the advertised 3 hours. The analog connections for an external TV work fine, so you can use the unit in a hotel room if the TV has AV connections. The internal speakers are of course tinny and soft, but there's plenty of gain at the headphone jack.
Durability: This is always the big question with these Chinese electronics products, isn't it? The low price is seductive, but you know its a craps shoot. User responses like these Amazon reviews are almost the only source of data. Well, I'm only one owner, and I haven't used my Wanlida hard (but I do use it every day, at least playing music at bedtime), and after 6 months it has exhibited no mechanical flaws or glitches. So I'm optimistic.
