I was, and still am a Denon fan...just not for their DVD products. We have a Denon reciever that is fabulous so when I purchased the DVM-1815 I thought it would be flawless. However, after a year it experienced "disk loading" issues that would come up almost every time I used the player. After returning it for a new model, the same problems occured again and again.
As in other reviews, the unit does cause small scratches on the disks and they often fall out of the tray. The tray, in my opinion, is very flimsy and poorly made. Denon products are typically the highest priced, therefore you have an expectation of buying a solid unit. Not the case here.

I purchased this product in Sept 2004. I should have done my homework before buying however. Denon products tend to have more problems than many other well-known products. This DVD player was no exception. Within the first year my CDs and DVDs began to skip. Furthermore, the price is way to high for the features you get in this DVD player. You can purchase a Sony or Panasonic DVD player with similar features that is just over a third the price of this Denon and with much more reliability. No more Denons for me!

Plays adequately. Excellent sound reproduction (a feature it shares with many players.) The carousel however, consistently causes the discs inside to slide out of their position and to get caught above the rotating tray. This had resulted in catastrophic damage to many DVDs and makes the player useless as a CD changer. Additionally, to avoid damage I have had to load only 1 disc at a time and immediately remove it after viewing. Also, not quite as good at playing discs with light scratches. (the scratches it causes though are not light but very heavy usually).
