Best All-Region DVD Player

Hi everyone,

Our trusty Toshiba DVD player has packed up after 4 years (solarised effect halfway through a movie) so we need to get another one.

I saw Martin's recommendation for one this week but after reading reviews, it seems a bit too cheap, given we got 4 years out of our old dvd player I don't mind spending another £10 or £20 to get something that will be a bit more robust.

Only requirements are that it's multi-region and HDMI if poss.

Many thanks for any suggestions :beer: - ps: we are also with cashback sites (Quidco, Freefivers, Top Cashback, Cashback Rewards, RPoints) if you know of recommended dvd suppliers that we can access via cashback sites :T

    The Samsung DVD-HD860 can be bought multi-region for around £80.
    If you want something that performs a little bit better try the Denon DVD1730, which you can get for £120 from richer sounds.
    Good luck,

    Look for one that you like then put the model number into Google with "hack" after it and see if you can make it all regions,if it is not already .
