4.0 out of 5 stars
nice sturdy dvd car case, June 18, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: CyberHome ACB-01 Deluxe Portable DVD Case with Auto Mount (Up to 7" Screen) (Electronics)
This car mount dvd player case just "saved" me on an 11-hour trip with 3 very young children!! I bought this item after returning a Case Logic Car Mount case. It is very sturdy and uses fewer straps so it is less cluttering in the car. Also, unlike the item I returned, it hangs vertically and flat so that the other child in the back seat also has an unobstructed view of the movie. The unit holds the dvd player very securely, seems safer than the Case Logic model I had. There are openings in the case where the car adaptor fits through so that it doesn't fall out when things get jostled around....a real plus! The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that the case zips apart into 2 pieces when you want to mount it in the car and I'm always thinking that I'd prefer it to stay together so that I don't misplace the other half.

Too complicated/small for us, March 29, 2006
This review is from: CyberHome ACB-01 Deluxe Portable DVD Case with Auto Mount (Up to 7" Screen) (Electronics)
We ordered this case/auto mount for our Philips PET710 7" Widescreen Portable DVD Player because it was the one recommended by Amazon. I needed the auto mount for long car rides with my toddler. I eventually got this thing to work (failure was not an option if you get my drift), but it has a number of drawbacks.
-In order to mount it, you have to remove the top half(huh?). Having two parts makes it harder to install and easier to lose. I accidentally left the top part on the top of the car when I drove away.
-It's too small. The Philips portable DVD player is too long for the case and the headphones and car/ac converters also pull the player out of the case. Plus (and this is really amazing), it does not have enough space to hold the most basic accessories that came with the DVD player. I have to carry the headphones and sleaved DVDs seperately!
I chose my last DVD player b/c it came with an auto mount case, and even though I like the Philips DVD player, I'd do that again if I had it to do over. Having the right case/mount for your DVD player is that key.

DO NOT BUY!, October 9, 2006
This review is from: CyberHome ACB-01 Deluxe Portable DVD Case with Auto Mount (Up to 7" Screen) (Electronics)
I bought 2, being stupid and thinking they would surely fit my standard-size, 7", Coby DVD players. They did not. When I went to return them, they said that, in addition to paying the return shipping, I had to pay a $15 "restocking fee"! So, $25 to return 2 items totalling $33?! Also, the return policy is very tricky and time-consuming, akin to those "we hope you get so frustrated you never fill it out" rebate cards.
As to the product, I ordered 2 of the same thing, and 1 is differnent than the other! They are shoddy and have a lot of different places where the craftmanship seems poor.
Overall, below average product from a company with horrible service- if you're going to roll the dice on the low price, good luck!
