Reviews around job (4.54 of 5)

  • Does a great job! used this on 3 dvds and 2 cds that were skipping and
  • doesn't do a very good job...not easy to use either
  • It did the basic job in cleaning the disk but the disk still did not work
  • Got the job done but flimsy
  • 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

Reviews around price (4.41 of 5)

  • Definitely not worth the price.
  • 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
  • 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
  • out of all of them on amazon this one was the most reasonable price and it had good
  • The price was right and much cheaper than at retail outlets.

Reviews around system (4.06 of 5)

  • Now t didn't work the first time, but as i said before, I scratched it pretty bad
  • Don't go cheap, find a good high quality disc repair system and stick with that choice.
  • This system failed to repair any of the dvds that I tried to restore.
  • just because!On a side note, I picked up a more powerful and professional disc repair system, a JFJ Easy Pro
  • However note that the system may be very good for DVD and CD repair

Reviews around advertise (4.01 of 5)

  • Didn't have a drying cloth in package, CD does not spin well in device and is not removing scratches as advertised
  • It's okay for the price... but it doest work as great as you would hope.
  • It worked as advertised, fixed two CD's that were not playable.
  • They also like to drop them, and scratch them as they put them back in the boxes.

Reviews around money (3.73 of 5)

  • Unless you like wasting time and money which I guess I do.
  • I wouldn't waste your money on this cheap piece of junk.
  • If you are able to repair even a handful of disks, it's worth the money though.
  • Well worth the money and effort required to operate it.
  • I do not recommend this; I would prefer to buy a replacement copy of my disks than waste my money with this item.

Reviews around machine (3.70 of 5)

  • I am very pleased on how this crafty little hand held machine cause me to play my games and music cds again
  • A couple of really deep scratches are still messing up the playback, but it's nowhere near as bad as before
  • 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.
  • I'm going to use this all week on my dvds that have been skipping before the machine stops working
  • If you have a new game worth money then go ahead and buy this crappy machine to fix it up, but if your debating on fixing up and old game that's not really expensive now, you might be better off buying it used and save yourself the hassle that I've been dealing with, maybe I just got a crappy wheel

Reviews around solution (3.68 of 5)

  • Thanks for letting me know the cleaning solution composition (alchol & water
  • So we tried the toothpaste idea, and some of the scratch-out solution - both taking too long
  • 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

  • Getting a mediocre working copy of Tenkaichi 3 that only includes a copy of the game can easily cost you at least $50, and so getting the game plus the case and cover art for $25 was quite a steal

  • 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.

  • But I'm nearly positive that the plastic didn't feel as flimsy as this new black one

Reviews around handle (2.18 of 5)

  • Now I crank the handle to my hearts content and forearm fatigue as fast as humanly possible to get the job
  • I wouldn't recommend this for any 360 accidents as it didn't work on three separate incidents for myself
  • I gave it a 4 because I had to glue the handle on for it to work
  • It only repaired one of my broken Xbox games, and something really annoying is that the handle to spin the disc kept breaking off numerous times
  • 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.
