I purchased this unit mid July with the thought that I would pay a little more for a well known, reliable name brand portable DVD player. Well this has not been the case. First of all, the design is bad. The lid covering the DVD is made very cheaply. The volume is not loud enough with a single headphone connected, let alone trying to use 2. Also using the battery increases the overall size and weight. This thing also runs very hot. Too hot to keep on your lap.
All of the above I can live with, but when the screen started dying on me, well that really did it for me. I originally purchased this for my daughter to use on long car trips. So since July, we have used it maybe a handful of times. Well the first 2 trips, the unit was great. However, after that, the display would start showing random horizontal lines then die after running anywhere from 15 - 30 minutes, like clockwork. It would then recover after letting it sit for 5 minutes off. But try to tell your 4 year old that they have to stop watching Arthur because the unit has to reset. That does not work, especially while driving on the highway where you are unable to stop.
So I would strongly recommend looking for another brand.
