CleanDr for Blu-ray 4190300

What it is

A laser lens cleaner for Blu-ray players and Blu-ray game systems that load slowly, skip, or freeze. It uses a ten brush cyclone clean, and it includes image and sound calibration tools. Instructions come in English, French, and Spanish. It works with Blu-ray players, DVD players, Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS2, PS3, and PS4. It is not compatible with CD only players.

Who it is for

For someone with a Blu-ray player or a game console that plays Blu-ray discs, who wants to try cleaning the lens before replacing the machine.

What to check before you buy

• Check your player. This one is for Blu-ray players and Blu-ray game systems, not CD only players.
• Expect a long intro and tutorial that cannot be skipped, and a cleaning run that takes under two minutes once it starts.
• Compatibility is the main flag. Some buyers reported it not working or not being recognized on some PlayStation and Sony Blu-ray players and some Xbox One units, while others reported it working on PS4, PS3, Xbox Series X, and Xbox One.
• It only helps if the problem is a dirty lens, not a dying laser, and some buyers needed more than one pass.

Why it pairs with used media

Blu-ray players are the most expensive players we recommend, so a cleaner that can bring one back to life is worth trying before you buy a new one.
