Reviews around job (4.54 of 5)

  • It did the basic job in cleaning the disk but the disk still did not work
  • Does a really good job at removing scratches from music cd's and dvd's, but if the disks are badly scratched you must use it over and over again to get the job done
  • doesn't do a very good job...not easy to use either
  • Does a great job! used this on 3 dvds and 2 cds that were skipping and
  • It is really very easy to use and does a very good job for what I had to do with it so far

Reviews around price (4.41 of 5)

  • The price was right and much cheaper than at retail outlets.
  • It did save one regular DVD of ours, but the price of replacing the Blueray it ruined has left me rather angry.
  • One might find it cheaper to buy several of these repair system sets rather than buying the repair accessory kit as the repair system is cheaper priced at the moment
  • Definitely not worth the price.
  • It does the work i expected it to do, great price, fast shipping, works pretty good on majority of scrathced cd,dvds etc..but for badly scratched , two tries then thats it

Reviews around system (4.06 of 5)

  • This system failed to repair any of the dvds that I tried to restore.
  • I would recommend buying a more reliable disk repair system, you get what you pay for!
  • I highly recommend this disc repair system if you have scratched up dvds.
  • just because!On a side note, I picked up a more powerful and professional disc repair system, a JFJ Easy Pro
  • Don't go cheap, find a good high quality disc repair system and stick with that choice.

Reviews around advertise (4.01 of 5)

  • I wouldn't recommend this for any 360 accidents as it didn't work on three separate incidents for myself
  • The advertising fails to mention when you repair a disc with SkipDr, it leaves clearly visible signs of its use on the disc
  • A couple of really deep scratches are still messing up the playback, but it's nowhere near as bad as before
  • The SkipDr works as advertised, successfully used to repair several XBox 360 games that had light to moderate scratches
  • They also like to drop them, and scratch them as they put them back in the boxes.

Reviews around money (3.73 of 5)

  • If you are able to repair even a handful of disks, it's worth the money though.
  • Do not buy this you will be wasting your money like i did.
  • Unless you like wasting time and money which I guess I do.
  • Now I wasted money on something that could have repaired my black ops 2

Reviews around machine (3.70 of 5)

  • i do not recommend this particular machine because it is suppose to remove scratches and unfreeze dvds but it doesnt,instead it scratches my 2 cds and ruined one of my dvds it is junk
  • And please note that the machine is only good for about 25 repairs
  • At first, I wasn't sure the machine was working, but watching the art side of the disc underneath, I could tell it was actually turning.
  • I am very pleased on how this crafty little hand held machine cause me to play my games and music cds again
  • otherwise, spend a few more bucks and buy a proper recovery machine like Professional DVD/CD Disc Cleaner and Reconditioner or Aleratec 240131 DVD/CD Disc Repair.

Reviews around solution (3.68 of 5)

  • I tend to use a lot of the cleaning solution so end up making my own out of distilled water and 1% isopropol alcohol.
  • It is a relatively cheap solution that is the best I've found.
  • I bought this product as a cheap solution to cleaning these discs
  • So we tried the toothpaste idea, and some of the scratch-out solution - both taking too long
  • The "cleaning solution" that comes with this machine is just distilled water with a little bit of rubbing alcohol

Reviews around thing (2.95 of 5)

  • This thing not only feels extremely cheap but it did not work at all.
  • That thing was scratched up beyond hope and wouldn't even load.
  • Morale of the story, this thing just does not work for todays disc, PS3 games, blue ray disc, etc
  • Good thing, too, kids would have been in hot water otherwise!

Reviews around surface scratch (2.94 of 5)

  • A couple of really deep scratches are still messing up the playback, but it's nowhere near as bad as before
  • What this thing does is use a very fine grit sanding disk to buff out minor surface scratches, which in theory is fine but in practice... not so much.
  • Understand that only light surface scratches will be smoothed.
  • A couple of really deep scratches are still messing up the playback, but it's nowhere near as bad as before
  • As long as one follows the directions (and this includes admonitions about not working well if too severely damaged, as well as if the reflective coating becomes scratched), it works every time.

Reviews around plastic (2.60 of 5)

  • This product is all right, but it's not quite as great as I hoped
  • While I found the product did buff the disc...the device is not designed for ease of storage, it feels and handles like cheap plastic
  • I know that it was a different design back then; instead of a fold-out disc guide, there was a larger plastic wedge that supported the disc
  • I wouldn't recommend this for any 360 accidents as it didn't work on three separate incidents for myself
  • I foresee this breaking because it is made of cheap plastic and has small notches where it attaches.

  • After I clean about 6 DVDs, the "fly wheel" is out of shape

Reviews around doe (2.20 of 5)

  • This does clean up the surface of the disc off very minor surface scratches from normal use over the years that could cause skipping on a dvd
  • Though it never worked with just one buffing, it does eventually work
  • But under the right circumstances this thing does work.
  • Morale of the story, this thing just does not work for todays disc, PS3 games, blue ray disc, etc
  • does not work like it should have to keep spraying disc sometimes jams up

Reviews around handle (2.18 of 5)

  • It's okay for the price... but it doest work as great as you would hope.
  • Flimsy, ridiculous instructions and most importantly the handle kept falling off if I could give it zero stars I would.
  • Now I crank the handle to my hearts content and forearm fatigue as fast as humanly possible to get the job
  • The only complaint I have with this, and why it's not 5 stars, the handle to crank the thing is detachable, which is fine-I assume for storage and shipping.
  • I wouldn't recommend this for any 360 accidents as it didn't work on three separate incidents for myself

  • it requires a little amount of physical work but cleans up grimy grand kid finger prints quite well.
  • My kids are pretty rough on their DVDs and Wii games and this seems to clean them up enough so they will play again.
  • My kids have scratched a ton of their DVDs, and it helped get most of them skip free.
  • I bought this specifically to try to fix some DVD's that my kids had scratched to the point that they wouldn't play or froze during playback

Reviews around lot (1.78 of 5)

  • Our PS4 scratched up a lot of our DVDs (it scratched them while they were playing and it took us a while to notice as I didn't inspect the DVDs after removing them from the device)
  • It cleaned a lot of my games but one game was still like really not playable other then that it's fine.

  • This contraption completely killed three of our children's DVDs, as well as their Xbox game
  • An unusable Xbox 360 disc became usable in one use of the disc fixer
  • My old XBOX 360 NCAA football is still a favorite of mine since they don't make a new version for the XBOX ONE and it would work until midway through a game and then freeze
  • However, my Xbox 360 was standing on its end and fell over while I was playing a game, leaving several large, deep scratches in a ring around the entire disc, making the game completely unreadable
