Love the double screens, this was the best investment that we have made in a long time.

The great thing about this DVD player is that you can use it anywhere - hook it to the TV, use it in the car, or just in the house for an extra player when two kids are fighting over what move to watch!

Glad we bought it.

This was purchased as a birthday present for my grandchildren. My son-in-law had it totally installed in their car in five minutes, and it is a big hit! The picture is clear, the sound is great, no other accessories need to be purchased, and the kids now look forward to trips anywhere!

The battery does not work in the hanging position, so you don't have the option to have battery power in the car, so every time you stop for gas or turn off the car for a second, you have to restart the DVD and find where you left off. Very annoying. Also, the way that the cords attach makes too many cords hanging around the car, compared with other sets where the two monitors attach with one USB cord for power and video. The hanging bag for the main player doesn't work for our compact car, it will only hang in such a way that the buttons are right at our two-year-old's feet, and it can't be adjusted any higher, so this machine is not working out for us.

We purchased this player almost a year ago. It worked up until it's 10th month in which the mechanical part that moves the eye broke. We fixed it by shimming the part. It worked for a day and broke again. We will take one more try at fixing it, but after paying over $100 less than a year ago, we feel cheated.

Have used the dvd player for three trips so far and love it! Seems to be fairly sturdy compared to many others in the past. Love the carrying case. Only drawback I see is we can't use both sreens while using the battery pack(needed for use on a plane). The additional screen is light and very nice. Like the total of three headphone jacks for both screens. Very quiet and simple to use. Never have had a problem. So far its the best portable unit I have owned and have had several over the past 6 years.

I bought this dvd player less than 7 months ago and it's already not working. And of course it is no longer under warranty. We've only used it a hand-full of times and now it will not read the disks. I stongly recommend not purchasing this and looking at other brands on the market. I am very dissappointed at the durability of this player and classify it as junk.

When I first opened this product and tested disks, every single one of them had the same problem: when the disk spun up, it rattled like crazy. It was hard to hear the audio of the movie over the constant noise from the disk rattling around in there. Bummer because there are so few that I've found with dual screens and batteries! Comment if you know any better ones!

Thanks.

This product worked the first time I used it and 2 weeks later it stopped. The screen said no disk when I put a dvd in. I've sent it back to audiovox to have it repaired no response yet. Also the picture quality isn't that great. Make sure and keep the original packaging if you don't have it adorama camera will not give you a refund!

IThe dvd players works well, my children are so happy. It's easier in the van with two screens, everyone can see the movie well. Best purchase I did for christmas. The sounds and image are great. I recommand that product to everyone who wants to buy a dvd player. Thank you.

The product worked well for a while but we had to get the battery replaced during the first year. The company honored the warranty, so we were pleased with them.
