So far so good with this replacement laser. It's been a few weeks now and I have had no reoccurring problems. I have heard of replacement lenses wearing out within a few months time, and I will be sure to append this review if such a thing occurs, but so far it appears to be smooth sailing.
If you are tech savvy enough to do the repair yourself I would recommend buying this part, its certainly cheaper and quicker than sending in your console to the repair shop.
The box I saved is one of the big 60GB, I do not know if a different part is needed for one of the newer generation playstations. Good luck to anyone attempting a repair

So first of all I heard from around the internet that replacing the laser is a bad idea because it dies out fast and still costs a decent amount. I am here to tell you that I have had mine for over a month with NO problems at all! The reason i replaced it in the first place was because it was reading games just fine, but would start to skip, mute out all vocals (not sounds or music for some reason) and then freeze. Replacing the laser has fixed all those problems except that the motors that take the disc in and the optical sensor broke, so discs will not go in but that is from my carelessness opening the blu0ray case. I have found out i can leave the system open and place the disc under the magnet sensor manually though, with some technical skill. As always, watch some tutorial videos on youtube and make sure you know what you're doing. Once you get the entire thing open, replacing the laser part is EXTREMELY easy! All you need is the old white piece. All in all, this piece is great and makes your ps3 new!

Had it for a few weeks. Had not had any problems. Install was easy; just google for PS3 laser lens replacement. Lots of tutorials.
