Hama CD Laser Lens Cleaner | For Cleaning of the Laser Optics In a CD Player

I have owned 2 bose wavelength cd players for 6 years. Recently they had trouble reading the CDs. Skipping. I order the Hama CD cleaning disc from Amazon. I got the original item as displayed in the advert. Although it says in the instructions it cannot be used for slot CD players IT CAN. i inserted the cd which has some tiny red brushes on one side into my slot cd players. The disc plays 30 seconds of the opera Carmen. Then i put the disc in that was skipping and it played first time on both my machines without any skipping. This product works. It cleans the laser reading lens in the cd player. How simple yet very effective.

Ok item

Does what i says on the tin

I purchased to use in my Cyrus; would not load, but it works in my car CD player.

works just fine recomended

I have an old Panasonic hifi with 5 cd changer that's around 15 yrs old, but the CD stopped working. I ve always meant to take it somewhere to have it fixed, presuming it would need a new lazer. I only tried this product as punt not expecting it to work. But it has! It said in the pack that it should play music while it cleaned. Well mine didn't but it did the job. If you're having problems with your cd not reading tracks, then its worth trying this first. Best £5 I've spent!

Before I bought this, CDs had been skipping. Now they are skipping MORE or not registering at all.- First run of the cleaner - classical music played for the allotted 30 seconds.- Tried first previously-skipping CD. Still skipping.- Tried second previously-skipping CD. Still skipping.- Tried the cleaning CD again. Mid-way through classical music, skips and hi-fi fails to register a CD at all (display from "CD 1" to "CD 0").- Ran it again.- Tried first previously-skipping CD. Still skipping.- Tried head cleaning CD again. CD registers now, but but track will notplay. Takes a long while for 0.29seconds track to register, and then it will not play.- Ejected and re-inserted cleaner. Track registers and plays part way through twice, but then player struggles to register the track again.- Now back to trying an actual music CD again - it now fails to register.It is entirely possible I am just dealing with a malfunctioning CD player. We are talking about a unit circa 2001.I bought the CD cleaner to eliminate the simple possibility of a dirty lens.It's hard to say whether 1) it is a dirty lens; 2) if so, how effective this product is or 3) whether the unit is broken and beyond fix by a lens cleaning CD.

My CDs still jump at the beginning but it does d help
