Good portable CD/DVD player for the price
This is the second one of these I have purchased. Ideal for anyone still using CD/DVD's who hasn't got an in built DVD writer in their pc/laptop.

Better than expected
Works as advertised at a good price. Build quality is better than I expected after reading the other reviews. I did need to install an app to be able to watch DVDs on Win11 but no big deal.

Handy CD drive to have
I needed a CD drive to import CDs into iTunes as I'm using my 20 year old iPod again and have stopped using subscription services. Works fine, is nice and compact, easy to store.

Previously had similar from different retailer but was slow and more bulky and more expensive. Tried this one which is a slim design and cheaper in price. Easy to setup, plug & play andy plays and burns cd/dvd quickly
