This DVD player is great. The veiw screen is perfect. For those who would like to know since it is not written on the box or in the manual it plays DVD-R/DVD-RW/DVD+R/DVD+RW. I have tried other products that cost a lot more and have found this product to be the best of all. In addition it doesn't have all that junk to carry along. It's a single unit with built in battery and no flip top that can be broken off. It is really easy to use. Wish it had a closed in carry case but that is miner. I believe you will love this product.

I bought my first dvd and the picture was not working. I return it and got another one, used for 2 days, it was great, but then I lost the picture and voice, all what i hear is a hum. I'm returning the second one and will be looking for another brand.

Great DVD player!! No annoying screen hinge!! $119 PLUS Free $20 DVD at Toysrus until Dec 3 ($100 final price) for a 7 inch player with built in battery. Great value!!!

We bought two. One for my son and one for my daughter for Christmas morning. I too- charged both as the directions stated so they would be ready Christmas morning. They neither one worked Christmas morning. I read the directions closer and realized that they needed to be charged up to five times and completely discharged up to five times before they would fully hold a charge. So almost a month later of fully discharging and charging, my son's will hold a charge, but my daughter's still will not hold a charge. I am also very disappointed at the carrying bag that is sold with this. I thought it was a bag. It is not. It is just a case that you put the DVD player into to strap it to the back of the car seat. It does not hold any of the accessories or any extra dvd's. If I had it to do over, I would not purchase this product.

I am 14, and i recieved one of these dvd players for christmas. the first time i opened it, i pluggeed it in and watched Matrix Revolutions, a 3 hour movie. the next day, i did the smae thing, but the screen is black. I looked at the maual, and realized there was a screen on/off button. Every button on the remote works, but when i aim the remote at the recepticle, and press this button, nothing happens. this was very frustrating, and i was displeased with the item. i hope i can return it.

I am surprised to see so many bad reviews. It seems that the production line is randomly reliable. I got mine at Toys'R'Us for $119 with the $20 Movie (not a bad deal) - I got it without knowing that it has a rechargable battery and I have not used that feature. I got it for my kids during long car trips and it works great using the car adapter - I also like the fact that it can be used as a display for external devices (I got the V.Tech - V.Smile product - that is also great and want my kids to use it on the road) - My question is that I haven't found the adapter or cable to plug an RCA A/V cable into the Craig DVD and the website is not good at all. If you can test it before and it works, I would recommend you to buy it.

We charged the battery per manufacturer manual. Turned it on Christmas Eve before setting under tree to make sure worked. Next morning, when my daughter got up, I turned it on again (she hadn't even laid a finger on it). The picture was so faint you couldn't even see the movie or the settings screens. We could hear the movie, just not see it. Luckily, I distracted my daughter with other gifts & hid this one (returning it to Amazon that week) & bought a brand-name DVD at a local store to replace the one Santa brought. She didn't seem to notice the switch, but it was a big disappointment (it looked so nice on Amazon & didn't look cheap or flimsy out of the box. We tried charging it again, thinking maybe the battery wasn't fully-charged, but still no luck on getting a picture. DO NOT BUY this DVD player. It's also not top-loading, the screen pops up on a hinge and you put the DVD under the screen. I had expected a little slot at the top of DVD player that accepted DVDs like the car CD player, but I was mistaken.

I bought this DVD for my granddaughter for Christmas. My daughter called a couple of days later and said that it wouldn't work. After charging it would only play for a short time and the screen would go black. I went and got it to send it back, but I decided to read the manual and play around with it a little first. It stated in the manual that the "Ni-MH batter will not be fully charged the first time, so the discharging time will be short. The battery will take a full charge after four to five times of charging and dishcarging." I have been charging and discharging it since yesterday. It is now charging for the foruth time. After the third charge it played for 2.5 hours before discharging. The manual also says that after a period of storage of if not used for a period, you have to repeat the steps to get the battery back to normal charging conditions. Each time I have charge the player it plays for a longer time (so far). I think that must have something to do with it. Hope this helps.

This a great dvd player, my 4 year old daughter loves it, especially on long trips in the car, no more daddy, change the music. Only problem so far the car charger didn't work at all, but thats it.

this is the 2nd one i have owned. both have been defective. i only used this item 1 time. the 2nd time the screen was black. very unhappy!!!!
