rc5400p
Consider others before purchasing. Battery lasts only about 1.5 hours. Haven't been able to locate a DC adapter. Unit gets very hot. Too hot to hold in your hands...

This was a neat item!
This item is cool, you can carry it anywhere and listen to it! The screen was great and included a LOT of detail, it also was nice that you could plug headphones in. The only bad thing was the sound, it was sometimes a little fuzzy! But other than that it was a great product that I think you should ..

RCA - easy and played great
I used to own the Audiovox DVD Player. I got rid of it and bought this RCA DVD player. I took it to picnics, short trips and to a rock and roll concert. I never had a problem with it. The audiovox always kept stopping and had problems with it. I just need to find an adapter for my car and I wil..

Very Good Portable Player
For the price, you are getting a very reliable portable DVD player. The best things are the features offered and the picture screen quality. I have used it on airplanes. The headphone feature is required over the roar of the plane engins. This would be true with any portable DVd player. As for view..

NOT HAPPY AT ALL
I had purchased this for my 6 year old daughter for a 4 hour flight. Charged the unit all night long, let it run down to charge up again and STILL the battery life was not long enough to view the movie "Monsters Inc.". The unit was so HOT my daughter could not have it sit on her lap. The volume is S..

Worst DVD Portable on the Market
Look at Disillusioned's remarks. He is absolutely correct. I have gone through seven of these units in a year and they all gradually fail. RCA customer service is polite but totally ineffectual...in fact, watch out, because eventually they will just write you off and not even talk about the unit...

Disillusioned
I've been wanting a portable DVD Player for a couple of years now. Finally, in May 02 I used some of my graduation money to get one. My (first) RCA unit was a great deal at Best Buy. I've been through THREE units now and none of them worked. I've experienced nearly every type of problem at every..

Piece of Junk
I purchased this unit for my daughter's 8th B'Day. I decided to try it out & thank goodness I did. You have to tell it to play (not auto play); it froze numerous times; while in play it didn't detect the cd; lost volume. Boy what a TERRIBLE UNIT. I replaced it with the Panasonic DVD LV50 & this ..

Flawed Design
We purchased the player to use in the car for a trip cross-country with our two young children. It worked fine for a while but gradually began to fail and finally stopped working altogether. We had to make a lot of phone calls and argue with RCA to get a replacement unit. When we finally received th..

DANGER!!!
Do NOT buy this product!!! Small felt pads inside the player rub on the disk and scratch it. In the beginning it appears everything is OK until you play a disk the second time and towards the end of the movie (outer edge of the disk) it begins to pixelate or lock up. I ruined six disk before I di..

TRAVELS WELL
I purchased this model after booking three travel reservations. I traveled to North Carolina via air on May 10 and returned on May 12. The next flight was to Ohio on May 24 and returning on May 26. I then flew from NY to St. Maarten on May 28 and returned on June 1. Then my boyfriend had a flight to..

The question is.......... Do you feel lucky?
This product does deserve a 4 or 5, but I am unable to give it that high of a rating. I actually bought this after buying the Toshiba one (Click my name for that review). I seem to have bad luck with all these DVD players. There are only 2 reasons why I give this DVD player a bad review. Since I bou..

LEFT HANDICAPPED
I BOUGHT THIS UNIT FOR MY DAUGHTER FOR XMAS. I looked at several units before purchasing this one. I thought that I had answers to all the necessary questions that would ease my mind and leave me comfortable with my purchase. I was told by a Best Buy employee which car charger to purchase and did so..

low cost portable dvd paradise!
A very good low cost portable DVD machine. I've had mine since October of 2001 and have had no problems. Playback is great, picture is fine, battery last well thru a single movie and most of another. Unit has never damaged a disc of mine. My ONLY complaint, is that they did not package this so you c..

no power
Although the rca 5400p has some nice advantages, one major dissadvantage is that there is no adaptor for power other than the battery or the wall plug in. i.e. forget watching more than one movie on trips. Rca at this time doesn't make an a/c adaptor for this unit and doesn't plan to. I've tried 3..

Good Unit but Can Cause DVD Wear
I purchased this unit from another retailer about a month ago and just started using is pretty heavy in the last two weeks. I was watching a brand new DVD yesterday and could not figure out why the disk stopped playing and became distorted. When I examined the disk, I noticed that it was developin..

Better than any mini TV! Fantastic picture.
We used to carry a 9" TV/VCR, portable CD player, and photo albums of the kids when we traveled. Now we carry the DVD player and DVD's, CD's, and VCD's all in one case. The picture is very sharp and the sound quality is fantastic...
