Customer Review: Look elsewhere
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this from Amazon, it arrived, I used it to try to fix two discs. The product seems to work only closer to the center and does not do much on the outer 3/4" or so. It has you use a solution in one of the steps and you are suppose to put on 2 or 3 drops, which I did. I placed the disc back into the machine as instructed. After the required 3 minutes of spinning I opened the cleaning unit and removed my disc. One of the drops had not even been touched. So, not only is it not fixing my disc, it can't even remove a drop of fluid.
Also, there was some kind of contamination on one of the discs. It looked like a stain about 1/4" across and I was hoping this device would clean it off. It didn't. Having nothing to loose, I put some Windex on it, rubbed gently, and the spot went away.
So, some of the scratches went away, they were near the center, end of story.
Customer Review: Complete waste of money

This product seems to be more expensive than similar products that do the same thing. I have no clue why that is. This thing does NOT work for repairing discs if the scratch is near the outside of the disc. I've tried to repair a disc several times and the scratch is still there each and every time. If the scratch is more towards the center it will be repaired. It does just fine cleaning discs, but not repairing them.
I bought an Optifix unit and repaired the same disc and it fixed the problem on the 2nd try.

Junk. Item worked fine for about 10 discs. It did a decent job of sanding down most of the scratches; however, after about ten discs the "fixing" side of the system started slipping. It appears the gears inside were not strong enough to withstand constant pressure required to sand a disc for a sustained length of time. The problem became progressively worse and now doesn't work at all. Returning it is a nightmare.Customer Review: Not worth purchasing.

This item states that it can repair up to 30 disc per pads (its more like 15 to 20). You have to load and unload pads through the process and hit three buttons. Its time consuming and sometimes has to be repeated once or twice on dvds. Save yourself the trouble and buy a little better quality disc fixer.Customer Review: Unreliable Manufacturing

I bought this in November and used it a couple times. It worked on one disk and not the other. I went to use it again and it stopped working. I then called Maxell and it only has a 90 warranty. So I am feeling ripped off and angry. Oh well, that'll teach me to buy Maxell anything.
