Crappy
I would have given this item 0 stars, but there was no such opportunity. I borrowed this from my girlfriend for a trip to visit my grandpa in the hospitol, and it worked great, for most of the trip. Then it just stopped and never worked again. It says no disc when you put a DVD in. DO NOT BUY TH..

Decent for the price
I have had mine about 2 years. It works great. Yes, the speakers are weak in a large area, but a set of computer speakers fix that problem. I have had a few loading problems, but they are recorded DVD's. I usually just reload and it works fine. I have used it in the car, on airplane trips and a..

Player is unreliable - do not buy!
The player does not always load the DVD's. And it never fails that part way during the movie, it will stop playing, get stuck on a scene, and never start again. It is completely unreliable. Sadly, I did not start having serious problems with it until after the warranty was up. I've only had it 6..

Works great so far
I just read the negative reviews of his product and I'm perplexed. I've had mine for over a year now, watched lots of dvds on it. Excellent video and audio. When viewing pics they are stretched out sideways a bit, but other than that, it's been an awesome little DVD player for the price. I guess y..

Stopped working....
I bought this DVD player for my husband and son for the car. I watched one DVD. My brother watched two DVDs during a car trip that we took to meet family. When he tried to load another DVD half way through the trip, it wouldn't load any more. We tried several different DVDs, even called the manufact..

Oh Dear!!
I'll definitely be sticking with Brand names from now on. I've used this unit 3 times and now it won't load the DVD. That's nearly $200 down the drain. To it's credit, when it worked it was great. Good picture and good sound. I only wish I had seen the reviews on this product first as I'd never..

Piece of Junk
I usually rely on Consumer Report's reviews, which liked this unit. However, it is a piece of junk. We bought this as a second portable DVD player, as we have owned a Pioneer unit for 2 years, which has been flawless. This Mintek unit has two major problems: first, it does not play most DVDs as ..

It works for me
I have used this product for 2 1/2 years. I have 4 children who take it on every trip; watch it in the car, on planes, on boats, wherever. It has been used/abused and keeps on working just fine. The battery lasts about 3 hours before needing recharging. The car adaptor works well...

Works fine
I've had this DVD player now for 6 months. Based on the recommendation of two family members, who also purchased this product, I bought this player and have had no problems with it. Nor has my family...

Won't buy Mintek again
My children got this dvd player as a gift from their grandparents. It played one dvd and then the battery wouldn't ever charge again and the unit would not operate from the AC wall adapter. It's a piece of garbage. We tried contacting the manufacturer and got no response. Hopefully Grandma still..

Avoid this player at all cost
I purchased this player from Costco and had to return it twice. The first time, it plays only on a certain DVD and does not play on some DVDs, even original DVD, not DVD-R. The second time, the player would not charge up the battery.
I was interested in the 8'' screen, and for the price, this is ..

Not as good as it looks
I bought this player from Costo for $199.00. It came with a carrying case, car charger and 2 headphones. But the player only played 1 DVD, and never worked again. I am returning it for a refund...

Played one DVD before dying
Our Mintek MDP-1810 portable DVD player played one DVD before it died. The motor started making strange rubbing noises, and the display started blinking.
The one DVD it managed to play sure looked good -- the picture was sharp, and contrast and color were terrific. I just wish it still worked. I..

Important info if you want to use this product abroad
I bought this player elsewhere for a trip to the UK and had to return it same day - the transformer is 110v-120v only so you can't recharge the battery in Europe where the voltage is 220-240v. Not all brands are the same. I found the same problem on an Audiovox model but the Apex model I looked at..
