I am well into technology and gadgets, but don’t have a lot of money to spend on them, so to me this product was ideal. As DVD players go the ALBA DVD-103 is certainly not the best, but it is one of the cheapest on the market at the moment. However just because it is not the best does not mean it is no good. This DVD player has the features that I need and the quality is pretty good too. The DVD player itself is a big silver box, this is lucky as we had to replace our video recently and that is also a silver box so it does not look out of place on my technology tower. The buttons are a bit on the big side and they are all square, no soft round ... Read the complete review

I was a little reluctant to go out and buy a DVD Player as I am waiting for when they bring out writable DVD Players so I can tape stuff off the telly. However a friend told me about this DVD player that he had heard about down at Toysrus (I know, not the usual place to find a DVD Player!), so I went down to check it out. All I can saw is that I am now a proud owner of the ALBA 103, priced only at £140. This is absolutely nothing for what it can actually do. The player itself has a slick silver finish with a stylish look to it, there isn't an abundance of buttons and dials on the front that make it look tacky, and it manages to look rugged without being as ...

If you want a simple cheap DVD player, you might consider the Alba 103. The thing that bugs me about DVD is that most DVD enthusiasts are kind of elitist. DVD is the perfect format for "home cinema", so a lot of people think that is what DVD always *must* be. I don't think this is true. I think that if/when I am living in a nice house and driving a nice car, I may want my living room to be a "home cinema". But right now I am in a tiny bedroom with a 14" TV. So there is a market for cheap DVD players, the kind of players that suit a 14" TV with a mono speaker. I don't need anything fancy, I just need a basic player ... Read the complete review

This may seem irrelevant to you, but last year I appeared on a quiz on Radio 2. I won a fair amount of prizes, including several DVDs. The one problem was that I didn't have a player! We passed on a few DVDs to people we knew (what did I want with the 6 Million Dollar Man and Kojak, I asked myself), but we kept the DVDs of Butch Cassidy and Sooty (not for me, but for Ellie, my now two year-old daughter). All progressed well, and this year I decided to take the plunge and buy a player. This was not going to be done the usual way, for two solid reasons: 1- We don't have a lot of spare money floating 2- I like foreign films, and I found a lot ... Read the complete review
