I've had this portable DVD player for over 4 years, and it's been nothing but good to me. I bought it to entertain my toddler at the time, and has provided consistently good, and reliable service the whole time. We've used it daily, on vacations, and even on cruises. It's been flawless. The sound was the biggest question mark when I bought it, but once I received it, I realized that was not an issue. It sounds very clear, and surprisingly stays clear, even when quite loud. I've got no complaints in the picture department, either. Sharp, clear, and bright picture since day one.
So the sound is good, and the picture is good. Add to that the convenience of AC or DC power (with accessories included), complete remote, and the flexibility to strap it to a headrest, sunvisor, or use the built-in, pull out stand to support it on a desk or table, and you've got a compact, completely self-contained system that is very practical.
I would highly recommend it to anyone. |

ok, overall this has worked out to be great for us. We have used it on a number of trips and have had no problems with it.
pros: works, works well, large screen, hooks easily to back of headrest, remote, works in car and in house or hotel room, the screen and speakers provide a great show.
cons: no video input... can't make use of screen for anything else like video games, no battery so no using on plane or anything.
overall, we have been very satisfied with this and recommend if you are ok with the no video input no battery restictions.... |
Bad Quality...constantly failing. Go with a Brand Name

I bought this product thinking that I was getting a good deal for the price. Now I understand why the deep discount. It's JUNK. Don't buy it.
It worked well for the first 2 trips, then it started freezing up. It starts out unable to read/load discs, and when it finally does read a disc, it simply freezes the screen every 15 minutes. NOT something you want to happen on long car rides with an infant.
This item should be marked down to $20. It's WORTHLESS. Next time, I buy a Sony, or another brand name. Companies that build electronics that last for years, not days. |
Disapointed

| I have not even turned it on yet and I am already disapointed. I bought this unit to mount it on the headrest so my son could watch videos on an upcoming (long) road trip. The only way to mount it is to put it in the pleather sleave and attach that to the headrest. Once it is in there, you cannot change DVD's without taking it all the way out. It is pretty much useless to me. |
Unit Failed On The 2nd Day Of Ownership

I had this unit for exactly 2 days when it started overheating, and freezing any DVD I put in it. I'm not sure if I got a faulty one, or if they are all junk, but I still wouldn't buy it again. Needless to say, I returned it back to Amazon.
The build quality is middle grade at best. If you ever dropped it, a lot of pieces would probably break off, since it is totally made of plastic.
At first I thought, at this price, you couldn't expect great build quality. I was wrong. After I returned this nightmare, I bought the COBY TF-DVD7050 (available on this site). It was 30 dollars cheaper, and was extremely well built. It has metal parts, and some of it is constructed of high grade rubber. I was totally shocked. I never thought COBY was capable of building such a great unit. The Coby even has a battery, which the Dual doesn't have.
Anyway, here is bottom line. Don't waste your money on this unit. Save yourself 30 bucks, and get the far superior COBY TF-DVD7050. |
