Is It Worth It? Well, Yes For Convienence Sake

The good: very simple, fast and effective.
The bad: these don't last indefinitely.
So my suggestion is to use on the rare or hard to find discs you are interested in collecting or preserving. A data disc would be worthy if it contained one of a kind info. The abrasive material on the verticle rubber wheel is what will wear out and there are no cheap replacements to be found anymore. If your a do it your selfer you might be able to replace it with some quality sand paper but that would not be easy. I'd use some auto plastic polish for the final touch. Like the kind you polish the headlight covers with.Read full review...

does fairly well

Item Does what is described Will help fix dvds but wiill not fix all dvds but it has fixed a couple so far however it eats the batteries up very quickly but does have a power adapter plug in but im only giving three stars becasue i believe the itme should have came standart with a power adapter which it did not overall the item does whats describe for minor issues but i've not been able to get it to work with all bad dvds but it is still being used to fix things overall for the price its worth it for the price thanks Read full review...

Works well and is much better than a manual crank version of this item

The motorized version does a much better job than the manual crank SkipDr. It rotates the disc at a much higher speed and your arm doesn't get tired... :) The machine does well on light to medium scratches. I've been checking out discs from the library and they often have scratches that cause skipping. I've fixed each of them with this machine and returned the discs in better shape than I got them in.Read full review...

Ultimate game changer for music cds. Long as you have one of these & dont scratch foil\top side or crack the cd, or it gets stolen, no more replacing!

I used to have one of these, and its so effective itll feel like it uses magic. If you use one of these, and do in conjunction with having the repair kit, use some clear sealant like an hard enamel, varnish, fingernail polish, etc, and carefully(as to not get any on the downside of the cd) put a layer or two on coving completely over the foil/topside of your cd(s) to prevent nearly any damages from ever happening to the data, AND take good care (even pretty sloppy care, like i do) care of your cds, then chances are excellent that youll bever have to rebuy an album again, barring that Read full review...

This unit is really nice, works well! Purchase a 12v external power supply, it’s worth it! Batteries get eaten up fast, so everything works better and longer this way!

not worth it

I Follow instructions. and ran the disk through 2 cycles.
1. Batteries that come with the system did not last more than 1 minute.
I cleaned 12 CDs
2. after each clean, you are left with streaks from the machine
3. I did not see any noticeable improvement on the discs. They were scratched before the clean, after the clean they were a little better.
4 The main operating wheel has a strip of buffing pad on it. It came loose during my 13th clean.
5 Waist of $32.50

Works better than I thought it would. It repaired several badly scratched CD's. I only had 2 cd's it couldn't fix but they were gouged pretty deep.

Sexy, slim and lightweight. Very easy to use.

This product works better than I thought! Took out some heavy scratches and no more skips on my DVDs. "Recommended"
