Arsvita CD Laser Lens Cleaner Disc Cleaning Set for CD/VCD/DVD Player, Safe and Effective

The media could not be loaded. Honest review of Arsvita CD Laser Lens Cleaner Disc Cleaning Set for CD/VCD/DVD Player, Safe and Effective @ $8.99 at time of order.I ordered this hoping it would resolve the issue that I had with an older car with a 6-CD changer that I acquired in that it did not appear to be reading the CDs. I inserted this cleaning disc in the changer, it loaded, but nothing happened except for the same blinking on my CD player screen as with any other CD. So, I inserted this cleaning disc into my newer vehicle’s CD player. It immediately loaded and began playing music while displaying an icon likened to the disc cleaning. I shared all of this in the event that perhaps others would know to try it a CD/DVD/VCD player that you know is working if this cleaning disc does not work in one that you were having problems with already. I was not experiencing any problems with my newer vehicle’s CD player, so this was utilized as a maintenance cleaner in it. Other than saying it might take up to 30 minutes to complete cleaning, there are ZERO instructions or guidelines. Made in China, of course.Likes:Amazon Prime shipping, returns & refunds.Reasonable price.Ease of use.Plays music so you know it’s at least being read by the player.A cleaning/playing icon appears on my vehicle’s touch screen as an added notification that it is doing something.Glasses lens-type CD cleaning cloth provided.Dislikes:It seems that 20 to 30 minutes cleaning time is too long. I cannot afford to let my vehicle sit and idle while this cleans. I don’t want to take a chance of running the battery down somehow by just leaving the key with the accessory position on. So, I must use it while driving, and the music is not really my cup of tea (like what you might hear in an elevator).Meh:Arrived undamaged although it was shipped in its thin “CD box” and inside a CD storage case, in a non-padded, thin mailer.It has a limited number of recommended uses (about 30 according to the instructions), and it does not say what will happen or what to look for after the maximum number of uses has been reached.Made in China.Hopefully this honest review helps someone decide about this product.

Arrived quickly and cleans well

Worked in my DVD player and greatly improved movies playing with much less skipping/pausing. Did not work in my external CD drive. The music tracks that plays during the cleaning got annoying at parts, but was easily remedied with turning the volume down.

I had an old CD player which wasn't working well. I ran this through it for 30 minutes and it now works like new.

This cleaner's description says it isn't compatible with certain players (Xbox, PS, a Bose, etc.), but that it is compatible with CD/VCD/DVD. And, it worked great on my Sony Blu-ray DVD player, but not my older Phillips or newer Jensen CD players. It will not load, play the songs or clean. I was not happy with the length of time it took to clean my Blu-Ray (approx. 30 minutes play time), since my older Phillips CD/DVD laser lens cleaner cleans in seconds and has done well for years - one of the brushes is almost gone now - thus my new order. My Phillips laser lens cleaner worked on my Blue-ray and Phillips CD player, but then it's a Phillip's. It did not work on my Jensen CD Player. I emailed the customer service for Arsvita and was happy with the quick reply - like in a day or two. However, "Anna" said their description said it is not compatible with all CD players - the description does not say this. They did offer to give me a refund and said to keep the product, so that's good. I'll just try another product. Maybe one that is made specifically for CD players and use Arsvita's for my DVD player. I would have given it 2.5 stars if that were possible, since it did half of what was described, but I gave it 3 stars for being a good DVD cleaner. I have read some reviews that say it cleaned their CD player fine, but others where if it didn't they thought it was due to their CD player being faulty. Both my CD players work fine.

CD’s were skipping and this solved the problem. Was reasonably priced and took only minutes to clean the CD player. Pleased with it.

My DVD player all of a sudden displayed No Disc on several movies I had recorded throughout the years and I thought my DVD player was toast. I have a collection of over 300 DVD's - movies, nature shows, personal parties etc.After thinking that maybe I could save several hundred dollar for a new one, I would try a Disc Cleaner. It started working like it was new immediately after cleaning so now I can enjoy favorites and things of the past.

Seems to work as it is supposed to.
